Enterprise delivery leader and Master Data Management (MDM) architect with 16+ years of experience leading large-scale program and project delivery, enterprise data transformation, and cross-functional global teams. Proven ability to own end-to-end delivery governance — scope, budget, timelines, risks, and dependencies — across concurrent enterprise engagements, and to drive Agile transformation using Scrum, Kanban, SAFe, and hybrid SDLC ways of working. Deep expertise in Reltio multidomain MDM, including data modeling, Golden Record strategy, match & merge, survivorship, data quality, governance, and stewardship, developed in close partnership with business stakeholders and C-level sponsors. Consistently delivers enterprise transformation programs across the Insurance, Manufacturing, and Investment domains, leading distributed onshore/offshore teams of 45+ and driving measurable, governed delivery outcomes. Recognized for building high-performing teams, establishing PMO-style delivery governance, and translating business strategy into executable delivery roadmaps.
Led enterprise Reltio MDM implementations across the Insurance, Manufacturing, and Investment domains, from discovery to production.
Established Golden Record, match & merge, survivorship, and data quality strategies that improved trusted-record accuracy and reduced duplicates.
Established PMO-style delivery governance — KPIs, dashboards, and steering-committee reporting — delivering 90% of projects on schedule.
Designed PowerApps automation reducing manual effort by 30% and saving INR 80 Lakhs annually.
Directed major incident management and RCA, improving major incident resolution by 20% through unified governance workflows.
Architected high-volume Databricks/SQL ingestion pipelines feeding MDM, enhancing data quality and analytics readiness.
My path here wasn't linear by design — it was linear by necessity. I started as a Senior Web Integration Specialist wiring systems together by hand, moved into production support and root-cause analysis at Expedia, then spent over four years at Koch Technology Centre turning a global compliance-IT portfolio into a governed, automated operation. Aon is where the MDM specialization sharpened — architecting Reltio data models and later leading the support organization that kept golden records trustworthy in production. Today, at Apptad, that full arc — hands-on technical depth plus enterprise-scale governance — is what lets me lead delivery for global clients without losing sight of the details that make or break a program.
Great delivery isn’t about heroics under pressure — it’s about building the governance, teams, and data foundations so pressure rarely has to reach heroics in the first place.
Structure — KPIs, RAG reporting, steering-committee cadence — isn’t overhead. It’s what lets a distributed team move fast without moving blind.
Frameworks matter, but they only work when the people running them are trusted, developed, and given real ownership.
A Golden Record isn’t a project deliverable — it’s infrastructure the rest of the business builds on for years.
