What I'm looking for

I seek senior leadership roles where I can drive enterprise digital transformation, align architecture with business outcomes, lead cross‑functional teams, and deliver measurable ROI while ensuring compliance and scalable cloud/AI platforms.

I am a strategic digital transformation leader with over 20 years of experience across BFSI, Telecom, e‑commerce and governance, specializing in cloud‑native architecture, GenAI/LLMs, AI/ML automation and scalable data platforms.

I have a proven track record of aligning technology with business objectives, including doubling IT product revenue in the NAEAST region and shaping $50M+ technology investment decisions while enforcing architecture governance and regulatory compliance.

As an enterprise architect and program leader, I have driven measurable outcomes: 15% faster time‑to‑market, 25% reduction in design rework, 30% lower infrastructure costs through cloud adoption, and zero audit findings for regulatory programs.

I combine TOGAF enterprise architecture expertise, hands‑on delivery experience with microservices, Java and cloud platforms (AWS/Azure/GCP), and a collaborative leadership style to build future‑ready, compliant, and customer‑centric technology ecosystems.
