About Anusha Inukonda

Every team has that one person who quietly steps in when chaos knocks. That’s me.Whether it’s a rogue bug, a stuck deployment, or a team that’s overwhelmed — I show up, roll up my sleeves (figuratively, unless it’s a Friday), and get things done. Even when it’s not “technically” in my job description. Especially then. & , I orchestrate the symphony of multiple projects — from kickoff to final release — ensuring everything is on time, on point, and on par with business goals. With over 13 years of experience across PLM, product management, DevOps, and project execution, I’ve built a reputation for being the calm in the storm and the engine behind high-performing teams. I speak fluent Agile, breathe in DevOps, and have a secret crush on automation. Whether it’s leading scrums, implementing release pipelines, or aligning cross-functional teams, I thrive at the intersection of technology and business impact. Currently sharpening my strategic saw at ’ (MBA in progress), with prior degrees in Information Systems and Computer Science. I’m also a Certified Product Owner, Scrum Master and SAFe DevOps Practitioner — so yes, I do enjoy a good Kanban board with my morning coffee.🧠, ’, exploring how these technologies can supercharge product innovation and intelligent automation. It’s like finding cheat codes to modern project management — and I’m here for it. If you’re looking to connect with someone who: • Solves the unsolvable (with a smile), • Translates chaos into clarity, • And genuinely enjoys helping teams thrive —Let’s chat. I promise I won’t just “circle back” or “touch base” — I’ll actually make things happen
