## About

```text
At Blue Yonder Pvt. Ltd., I own product strategy and delivery across enterprise operations products spanning Asset Management, MRO, Inventory & Warehouse Management, Procurement, and Field Service. My work has included workflow automation that cut asset-building, technician-assignment, and part-procurement efforts by 65–70%.

On Caspar, I work as a Forward Deployed Engineer and provide business input into prioritized AI capabilities. I define behavior for AI-enabled dashboards, KPI creation, and goal-management workflows, and shipped 2 of 3 reusable AI skills adopted across the framework.

My hands-on background in Java/J2EE and Spring Boot informs how I scope technical roadmaps. I also use Python, multi-agent workflows, Codex, and DuckDB/SQLite in application development and validation.
