Senior Business Analyst specializing in Payments, ISO 20022 migration, and card acquiring platforms.
What I'm looking for
I am a results-driven Senior Business Analyst with over 7.5 years of experience in banking, payments, and capital markets, primarily at Societe Generale. I specialize in ISO 20022/SWIFT MT→MX migration, CBPR+ compliance, card acquiring platforms, and RBI/NPCI regulatory integrations.
I have led end-to-end ISO 20022 migration efforts, defined MT-MX field mapping and validation logic, and implemented SWIFT GPI and Confirmation of Payee to strengthen compliance and reduce fraud. My initiatives improved STP by 25% and reduced manual effort and processing overhead.
I am skilled in authoring BRDs, FSDs and user stories, coordinating UAT, designing test cases, and managing defect resolution. I work effectively with stakeholders across RBI, NPCI, SWIFT, and internal PMO functions to deliver agile outcomes and maintain strong governance.
I bring a practical blend of payments domain expertise, API and tooling knowledge (REST/JSON/Postman), and proven process-automation experience to help organizations modernize payment rails and optimize operations.
