@taranachawla
I lead cross-functional programs that turn strategy, AI automation, and data into measurable business outcomes.
What I'm looking for
At Avalara, I lead planning and transformation initiatives across Strategic Alliances, Revenue Operations, process improvement, and AI automation. I built a KPI framework for 50+ partners, cutting QBR preparation time by 40% and improving performance visibility by 60%.
I also directed an AI-powered partner re-engagement program that identified 30+ opportunities and projected a 20% increase in partner-sourced revenue. By strengthening Salesforce governance and deploying recurring PMO automations, I improved lead routing, reporting compliance, and executive decision-making.
Previously at Capgemini, I improved delivery efficiency by 25% across four concurrent programs, led agile delivery across six product releases, and managed a $5M+ portfolio. I work closely with business and technology stakeholders to turn priorities into clear operating cadences, KPI frameworks, and measurable execution.
My earlier work at NTT DATA, IBM, and Paytm spans Scrum delivery, process improvement, outage reduction, customer segmentation, pricing, and go-to-market campaigns that increased merchant sales by 35%.
