I am an ardent believer of the dictums, “Clarity is Power” and “Where there's a will there's a way”.In total, I have 20+ years of experience in Software development & testing with robust project management and technical skills. Have managed a large, distributed team of 300+.As a Continuous learner, recently I have completed a course with IIT Madras on Advanced Machine Learning & Cloud and have acquired good knowledge and hands on experience in machine learning concepts & tools. Have completed several case studies (details provided in the resume) as part of this course.I have good hands-on experience and knowledge in managing software testing projects, which run on various technologies such as Web, Client Server, Web, and Distributed Architecture. I also have experience in handling dataware house projects, which use OLTP/OLAP databases with various eAnalytical tools. Delivery management is my forte.I have served several International clients through my ex-employers such as Polaris, Lionbridge, iNautix, RBS, Cognizant and Mindtree. As a customer (at RBS), I had worked with various organizations such as Infosys, Capgemini, and TCS to get Testing Services for Royal Bank of Scotland, for their Security and Fraud Division. May be, I am one of the few professionals, who have seen, how things work on both sides (Service provider, Service consumer- Client) and have also seen the SDLC from requirement analysis to implementation through the maintenance phase. My recent hands on experience in software development on .net Technologies, setting up Managed Test Service with Testing Partners such as TCS/Infosys would be very handy in deciding scope for internal team and testing partners & making software delivery function very effective to reduce cost and to provide quality solutions to the business. Have good insight and hands-on experience in designing and executing complex production roll-out plan to take the system live.I had been accredited by International Consulting Company on Future Leadership Program, which exclusively focuses on people management.I am a certified Project Management Professional (PMP) to manage projects using structured methodologies.
