Tips:
The third paragraph should prove that you’ll fit in and why the company is the perfect fit for you!
Show that your experience and knowledge will let you succeed with the project and benefit the company.
Show that you did your research and know something about the company, perhaps an upcoming project, etc.
A cover letter is a professional correspondence, so you should always use formal closing!

The first paragraph will determine if the hiring manager will read on.
e.g.: X let me know about the open position and suggested to contact you as they feel I would be a good fit for the position.
You should mention the position you are applying for, as the hiring manager can often look for candidates for several job openings.
E.g.: I am writing to express my strong interest in the x position open at x company.
You should address a cover letter directly to the hiring manager.
The hiring manager will see your greeting first so that makes it one of the most important parts of your cover letter. Also, people are most likely to react to the sight of their own names.
