At BMC Software, I owned the HR technology stack and led six global implementations as subject matter expert and functional lead. The portfolio included Oracle Fusion Core HR across 42 countries and a global MicroStrategy HR analytics platform.

At IBM India Pvt Ltd, I led functional workstreams for Oracle HRMS and PeopleSoft implementations across multiple countries. Earlier, at Aurobindo Pharma Ltd, I worked in HR operations, including payroll inputs, compensation and benefits administration, and performance management.
