IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Project & Delivery Manager with 23+ years of IT experience across Healthcare, Finance, Banking, Telecom, and Retail. I drive AI-enabled delivery excellence by integrating Microsoft Copilot, Microsoft 365 Copilot, Claude Chat, ChatGPT, and custom AI agents into daily operations, with a strong emphasis on governance, prompt engineering, and responsible AI usage.
I’ve led enterprise adoption of Copilot and GenAI assistants to reduce manual effort in documentation, reporting, and stakeholder communication—building agents for meeting summarization, action-item tracking, executive summary generation, and knowledge retrieval. Alongside AI transformation, I’ve delivered end-to-end Agile/Scrum programs (including SAFe® practices), managed resource planning and attrition risk, and supported cloud and infrastructure provisioning across Azure, AWS, and VMware.
