Agile Scrum Master and Agile Coach with 19 years’ IT experience, delivering cloud and data-driven products through servant leadership.
What I'm looking for
Versatile IT professional with 19 years of experience, including 6+ years as an Agile Coach/Scrum Master, Project Manager & Businesss Analyst. I’m certified in Scrum and SAFe, and I bring a servant-leader mindset to help teams deliver with clarity, focus, and continuous improvement.
In my recent role as a Scrum Master at Prudential, I facilitated Scrum ceremonies—Daily Stand-Ups, Sprint Planning, Sprint Reviews, and Sprint Retrospectives—while partnering with the Product Owner to shape user stories and keep priorities aligned to business requirements. I worked closely with development teams to clarify stories, support implementation, and strengthen understanding through live demonstrations and additional training for both teams and end-users.
As an Sr. Agile Coach/Scrum Master at FIS Global Pvt. Ltd., I coached multiple teams by ensuring ceremonies add value, promoting continuous improvement, and encouraging best practices. I helped teams resolve conflicts, remove impediments, support pre-PI activities (including refining and finalizing the backlog and identifying risks), and strengthened collaboration, innovation, and communication through structured facilitation.
Earlier, I served as a Scrum Master/Project Manager at Genpact, where I migrated client on-premises applications to AWS cloud and oversaw day-to-day operations for a 40-member team. I orchestrated scrum ceremonies, maintained JIRA storyboards, tracked iterations and demos, and produced weekly progress reports—while establishing governance models and applying Agile-Scrum methodologies to improve delivery and stakeholder satisfaction.
