Service Delivery & IT Infrastructure leader improving SLAs, reliability, and modernization.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior IT Infrastructure and Service Delivery professional with 14+ years of experience leading enterprise IT operations, infrastructure support, and customer-facing service delivery. I focus on dependable availability, strong ITIL-aligned processes, and practical improvements that reduce downtime.
As Senior Manager – IT Infrastructure & Data Center Operations, I lead 24x7 enterprise data center operations for mission-critical banking infrastructure. I run Incident, Change, and Problem Management, coordinate vendors/OEMs/facility teams, and manage Windows Server administration across a hardened, compliant environment.
I drive operational reliability through continuous monitoring, KPI reporting, and service improvement. I maintain operational documentation, SOPs, audit evidence, and compliance reports, while supporting disaster recovery readiness, failover activities, capacity planning, and patch management. I also led enterprise infrastructure modernization (bank.in Project) with zero unplanned downtime.
I’ve managed and mentored teams, including leading a team of 10 support engineers and handling escalations during critical incidents. Earlier roles as Workload Manager and System Administrator strengthened my end-to-end delivery mindset—aligning workloads, meeting SLAs, improving processes, and delivering consistent customer support results.
