Country Lead, CloudRock India · AI-Enabled Transformation Leader
I run an 80+ person India delivery organisation built up from 14, across Mumbai and Bangalore, as Country Lead and a Director of the India entity.
Seventeen years of enterprise HR and finance technology — and two years spent building AI systems with my own hands, because reading about agents turns out to be very different from running them.
Career: Infosys → Genpact → Deloitte → Capgemini → Star India → CloudRock. Workday HCM & Integrations, GCC and India Country leadership, GenAI & agentic systems.
I started in 2007 at Infosys, writing integrations on Oracle Fusion Middleware — BPEL, ESB, XSLT. Unglamorous plumbing, but it taught me the thing that has underwritten everything since: enterprise systems fail at the seams, not in the middle.
An MBA at IMT Ghaziabad took me into process work at Genpact — Six Sigma, master data governance for a US pharma client, seventeen Lean initiatives. Then Deloitte, moving from packaged Workday integrations into Studio and custom frameworks, and Capgemini, leading the integrations blueprint on a large Workday transformation end to end.
At Star India I ran HR technology for India and South-East Asia — 7,000+ tickets over three years, 360+ monthly payroll loads, and the Disney Vista global transformation: 700+ files, seven countries, 23 legal entities, 2,000+ test scenarios, live with zero critical defects.
In 2023 I joined CloudRock to build the India operation from scratch. Fourteen people to eighty-plus in twenty-four months, two offices stood up end to end, a seat on the India board, 98% client satisfaction.
Then AI arrived properly. I could have read about it. Instead I started building — weekends, hackathons, real deployments. That work is under More about me.
