@praveenchanderj
I lead portfolio governance, Agile delivery, and modernization programs for DTCC’s settlement infrastructure.
What I'm looking for
At DTCC, I lead milestone and RAID governance across the ITF INSIGHT portfolio, overseeing production readiness, change-ticket discipline, staffing forecasts, and resource allocation.
I also serve as Project Manager and Scrum Master for the Event Driven Architecture squad, guiding sprint planning, refinement, demos, retrospectives, release creation, and delivery metrics. I work with product, engineering, QA, and stakeholders to sustain a 90%+ Definition of Ready standard.
I delivered DTCC’s Net Debit Cap Increase on schedule, increasing processing capacity by 25% and supporting stronger resilience under peak load. The program was later selected for a DPA review and received zero findings.
I lead the Assembler Mitigation Program, reducing legacy Assembler dependency across five settlement-infrastructure pillars. Previously, I spent seven years at Cognizant managing Agile delivery, requirements, financial reporting, governance, and executive reviews for enterprise programs.
