Program Manager at Amazon who drove a platform migration, automated 1,500 test cases, and eliminated about 1,000 hours of manual effort.
What I'm looking for
At Amazon Development Centre India Pvt LTD, I own programs across AR operations readiness, platform migration, and automation. I led the business-side migration of approval and processing workflows to an in-house platform, onboarding the first two business channels and establishing a roadmap for the remaining channels.
I also built an end-to-end test automation solution on an in-house AI platform that automated billing acceptance and production-validation testing, eliminating about 1,000 hours of manual effort across roughly 1,500 test cases. Earlier, I led operations, audit, and compliance work at Amazon, including a month-end monitoring program that prevented $16.87MM in cash and invoice accounting errors across two fiscal years.
