Experience

    Cognitus

    Jan 2023 — Present · Hyderabad, IN

    Over the past few years at Cognitus, I have had the privilege of building and leading the FP & A function at Cognitus from the ground up — scaling the business from $40M to $120M in revenue within three years through rigorous financial planning, margin expansion, and data-driven decision-making.My role evolved from architecting the global FP & A framework to playing a central part in Cognitus\'s M&A transaction with IBM — leading the process end-to-end from a financial perspective, including due diligence, financial modelling, and deal structuring.Today, I continue to contribute to the post-merger integration, ensuring a smooth and value-preserving transition of the business to IBM.I am passionate about building high-performing finance functions that directly enable business growth, and I thrive at the intersection of strategy, operations, and transactions.
