Technical Program Manager driving build-from-scratch Agile delivery and platform launch.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Technical Program / Delivery Manager with 17+ years across the full delivery lifecycle—from hands-on application implementation and scripting through QA leadership into end-to-end Agile program and delivery management. I’m known for greenfield, build-from-scratch initiatives (concept to MVP), solution-level architecture, and RFP/bid involvement, aligning engineering, product, design, and QA teams to accelerate time-to-market with modern Agile/SAFe, data-driven governance, and emerging-tech adoption like LLM-assisted workflows.
Most recently, as a Program Manager & Delivery Leader at StatusNeo, I orchestrated delivery across 4 product lines and 30+ distributed teams, improving launch readiness from 70% to 90%. I optimized velocity by resolving cross-team dependencies and introducing predictive release-risk modelling, cutting production delays by roughly a quarter, and I strengthened executive decision-making through centralized KPI dashboards and executive scorecards. Earlier, I founded NEWTRUN Labs to take proprietary platforms from concept to MVP in 6 months, and I’ve led Agile execution and QA scaling through roles at Philips, Swiggy, and Crestech.
