Liaison Technologies, Pune

It's a bit funny because the name says Pune, but we are actually sitting here in Mundka, Delhi. The address is Hs No. 152, right near the masjid and pole number 88. It’s an industrial sort of area, often very dusty and full of large trucks moving through. We deal with technical stuff and making connections between different systems or companies. The office is pretty basic. We have some computers set up and a lot of wires running along the floor in the corners. You have to be careful where you walk so you don’t trip over a cable. Since we’re right near the masjid, we hear the calls to prayer throughout the day, which gives the place a specific kind of rhythm. It’s not a high-tech lab like you see in the movies. It’s just a room with some people working on keyboards and monitors. We get a lot of visitors asking for directions because the pole numbers in this area can be very confusing for newcomers. The air gets thick with the smell of diesel from the main road nearby. We don’t have a fancy reception area with a sofa. If someone comes in, they just talk to whoever is sitting closest to the door. We spend a lot of time on emails and trying to fix things that aren't working right on the technical side. It’s steady work, nothing too exciting. We just keep our heads down and handle the tasks that come in. Mundka is a long way from the city center.
