About Arul Lakshmanan
Technical Program Manager with 14+ years of experience orchestrating large-scale digital transformation programs across global, cross-functional teams. Currently at Publicis Sapient, I lead multi-million-dollar Agile programs for Fortune 500 clients — driving end-to-end delivery across engineering, design, product, and QA in distributed, multi-geo environments. My career spans the full spectrum: from hands-on software engineering to scaling delivery organizations and reshaping how teams work. At Tringapps, I stepped into a Director role during a period of organizational upheaval — rebuilding team culture, introducing new delivery frameworks, and bridging the gap between engineering teams and executive leadership to stabilize and grow the business. What I bring to the table: the ability to take a complex, ambiguous, multi-year program and break it into executable pieces — aligning stakeholders, managing dependencies across 5–10 concurrent workstreams, and keeping delivery on track without losing sight of the business outcome. Core strengths: Scaled Agile (SAFe), PI Planning, program-level risk management, stakeholder alignment, vendor coordination, release train engineering, and building high-trust engineering cultures. AWS Certified (SAA) with a strong technical foundation that lets me go deep with architects and stay strategic with sponsors. Open to connecting on Technical Program Management, Agile at scale, and digital delivery leadership.
