I deliver enterprise platforms from requirements through release, improving Agile execution, quality, and time to market.
What I'm looking for
At Art of Living Foundation, I lead end-to-end delivery across Salesforce and connected digital platforms, managing requirements, roadmaps, QA/UAT, releases, deployments, and production support. I've delivered 50+ projects and reduced delivery timelines from three weeks to one week.
Previously at Tech Mahindra supporting AT&T, British Telecom, and Exago Software, I led automation and QA initiatives, including an organization-wide Web, Mobile, and API testing framework. I introduced regression-test automation that reduced testing time by 61% and led teams across onshore and offshore delivery.
