IndiaWhat I'm looking for
At Exela Technologies, I managed 4–6 concurrent enterprise and government RFPs each month, supporting IT services and BPO deals from USD 200K to USD 10M. I led qualification, solution workshops, compliance reviews, pricing validation, bid defence, and win/loss analysis while coordinating solution, pricing, legal, and delivery SMEs.
Across Sakon, Ellicium Solutions, Orgpro Software, and Perennial Systems, I've built proposals, scoped cloud and software solutions, documented SRS/FRD requirements, delivered product demonstrations, and managed presales relationships. I bring experience across Telecom, BFSI, Healthcare, Retail, Manufacturing, and global stakeholder teams in the US, Middle East, Singapore, Japan, and ANZ.
