@amitkundu
I build forecasting, capacity planning, and workforce strategies for global support operations.
What I'm looking for
At Zenoti, I drive workforce strategy for global SaaS support operations, improving schedule adherence from 45% to 80% and forecast accuracy from 60% to 85%. I built self-service forecasting and workforce analytics tools across 450K+ conversations, 48 skills, and 268 agents.
I've led capacity planning and transformation across Coinbase, National Australia Bank, and American Express. My work has delivered $2M+ in transformation savings, optimised staffing for 1,200 FTEs, and improved service performance through demand forecasting, Erlang modelling, scheduling, and resource planning.
At NAB, I led a 26-person team across eight transformation work streams and migrated 20+ processes involving 700+ employees. At American Express, I managed workforce planning and P&L oversight for an $8M annual staffing budget while supporting teams of 300+ FTE.
I combine people leadership with hands-on workforce analytics, Power BI, Python, SQL, and modern forecasting models. I'm focused on building practical, data-led workforce strategies that improve service levels, productivity, and cost efficiency.
