At Autodesk, I led extensibility platform strategy and launched partner apps embedded in AutoCAD workflows, increasing partner solution discovery and activation by 40%. I also shipped a headless deployment architecture for custom AI agents that reduced onboarding friction by 35%.

At TARGET CORPORATION., I moved vendor deployments toward an API-first model and shipped Partner Connect API v2, onboarding more than 60 external partners. I instrumented B2B activation workflows and ran experiments that improved 30-day activation from 54% to 67%.

At TRAYDSTREAM, I owned trade finance setup flows and shipped a plugin architecture for custom document parsers, adopted by five banks. Earlier, at HCL TECHNOLOGIES, I developed Salesforce AppExchange solutions and REST integrations connecting legacy ERP systems with Salesforce.
