Executive Overview
I am a seasoned IT leader with over 25 years of experience across diverse industries, including oil & gas, FMCG, retail, power, manufacturing (steel and polyester film), and IT. My expertise spans project management, cross-functional coordination, budgeting, forecasting, and lean Six Sigma methodology. I am passionate about leveraging technology to create value, enhance efficiency, and improve customer satisfaction. As the Vice President of Information Technology at BC Jindal Group, a global manufacturer with a revenue of USD 2 billion, I lead the development and execution of the company's IT strategy, roadmap, and budget. My responsibilities include overseeing IT infrastructure, applications, security, and support, as well as spearheading digital transformation initiatives. These initiatives include automation through robotic process automation (RPA), adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, cloud solutions, and advanced analytics. Under my leadership, the company has achieved significant successes, such as launching a bot development program, migrating to a hybrid cloud model, enhancing the data governance framework, and delivering key IT projects like ERP implementation, CRM integration, and network upgrades on time and within budget. In addition to my corporate experience, I have served as the CEO of an IT startup, where I managed profit and loss responsibilities for up to USD 10 million. In this role, I demonstrated strong leadership by overseeing business operations, driving strategic growth, and ensuring financial sustainability. My experience with both large organizations and start-up's highlights my ability to lead and manage complex IT initiatives, integrate emerging technologies like RPA and IoT, and drive innovation to achieve significant outcomes.
