Experience

1. Technology Head - Global Csr

   Tata Consultancy Services

   Aug 2020 — Present · Bengaluru, IN

   As a seasoned technology leader, I specialize in architecting, designing, and delivering secure, scalable solutions within the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) domain. My work is anchored in modern cloud-native infrastructure, leveraging the MEAN stack and deploying across multi-geo regions on AWS to ensure resilience and performance.I’ve spearheaded the adoption of SecDevOps and Data Privacy practices—building teams, implementing tools, and streamlining processes that led to a >70% reduction in delivery turnaround time. Through Privacy by Design initiatives, I’ve driven meaningful organizational change and embedded compliance into the development lifecycle.Accessibility is a core pillar of my approach. I’ve developed strategies to integrate Accessibility by Design into product development, from evaluating COTS vs. in-house solutions to executing agile methodologies. These efforts have elevated AA compliance levels to 90%+, significantly enhancing user inclusivity across CSR’s flagship programs.
