## About

```text
At Yukosa, I lead Agile delivery for Datalyon.ai and MetaFlow.ai, coordinating work across engineering, data, integration, QA, DevOps, and AI/ML. I managed stabilization across 75+ bugs and blockers and coordinated UAT, regression, smoke, and exploratory testing for 20+ enterprise data connectors.

At IBM - Collabera, I applied SAFe practices to enterprise transformation and data integration initiatives, achieving zero sprint rollovers through disciplined planning and dependency management. At Wipro Limited, I supported healthcare, banking, finance, and operations teams; outcomes included reducing sprint cycle time by 20% on Philips healthcare work and ticket resolution time by 35% on Charles Schwab work.
