Hiring Manager
Nimbus Technologies

Subject: Application for Graduate Software Engineer

Dear Hiring Manager,

I am a final-year Computer Science student writing to apply for the Graduate Software Engineer role at Nimbus Technologies. I enjoy building working products and I am eager to learn from your engineering team.

During my internship at Gomti Software Labs I built six REST API endpoints and raised test coverage of my module from 35% to 72%. My Campus Bus Tracker project is used by over 800 students at my college.

I would be grateful for the chance to discuss how I can contribute. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Yours sincerely,
Rohan Verma
