Sarfraj Ahmed

I’m a results-driven Technical Program Manager with 7+ years delivering enterprise-scale engineering programs across banking, fintech, and blockchain. I focus on translating business needs into execution plans that keep delivery on time and aligned to outcomes.

In my current role at ICICI Bank, I lead a 16-member cross-functional team across the full SDLC—from requirements gathering and architecture design through release management and production support. I’ve helped drive measurable impact through automated delivery pipelines, including a 20% reduction in manual intervention costs and significantly improved delivery timelines.

I’m deeply hands-on with cloud architecture and integration, building systems on AWS services like EC2, S3, Lambda, and RDS. I also drive cloud cost optimization initiatives, including ~23% cost reduction by auditing and decommissioning unused resources.

I bring Agile transformation momentum through sprint planning, retrospectives, and roadmap sessions with business and technology stakeholders. Across banking and blockchain programs, I’ve integrated AI-assisted monitoring and anomaly detection into Kafka-based pipelines, improving data quality and reducing incident response time while embedding AI-powered automation into how teams deliver.
