What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can own operations and procurement execution end-to-end—improving P2P speed, SLA adherence, and supplier performance—while using data to drive cost optimization, inventory efficiency, and measurable reliability outcomes.

I’m a procurement and operations professional focused on delivering measurable performance across procure-to-pay, supplier management, and plant reliability. In my current role as a Senior Operations Associate at Silverlight, I lead high-volume P2P operations and stakeholder coordination to ensure SLA compliance.

At Silverlight, I optimized procurement workflows and vendor management processes to achieve 90% expert matching within 48 hours. I also managed end-to-end Jira workflows, monitored KPIs, and supported cross-functional execution for virtual events and post-event reporting.

Previously at the Adani Group, I managed the full lifecycle procurement and operations of machinery and automation systems. I delivered 12% cost savings through strategic sourcing and contract negotiation, improved equipment uptime by 15% with predictive maintenance, and supported ESG goals by procuring energy-efficient, IEC/IS-certified devices.

I’m energized by data-driven improvements—whether redesigning P2P processes with SAP Ariba and Oracle platforms or optimizing spare parts inventory with analytics-driven tracking. I bring a continuous-improvement mindset, from compliance frameworks (ISO 5001) to advanced Excel and Power BI, to help teams move faster with greater transparency.
