Nova jornada: desenvolvimento na TCS

Abstract

This paper aims to present and analyze the professional activities carried out by the student during his time at Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), a multinational IT consulting company, where he provided services for Banco Bradesco. The justification for this work lies in the validation of professional experience as an integral part of academic training, demonstrating how the corporate environment can significantly contribute to both technical and personal development. The project in which the student was involved followed the agile Scrum methodology, enabling hands-on experience with structured software development processes, from task planning to production deployment. Technologies such as Spring Boot for backend development, Angular for frontend development, and Jira for task management played a fundamental role in the implementation of APIs and system integrations. Moreover, the experience allowed the practical application of knowledge acquired in academic disciplines such as Object-Oriented Programming, Software Project Management, Software Development Methodology, and Integration Workshop. The results show that professional experience not only complements academic training but also enhances adaptability, problem-solving abilities, and teamwork skills in real-world scenarios. It is concluded that the integration of theory and practice strengthens the education of software engineers and prepares students for the challenges of the contemporary job market.
