AI Solution Architect with 14+ years of experience turning enterprise SaaS and emerging AI capability into measurable business outcomes across banking, automotive, and retail. I began as a software engineer at Citrix (IIT Guwahati M.Tech CSE), moved into product management and delivery at Kony, Inc. (acquired by Temenos), and have spent the last 7 years at Sitecore — across Solutions Architecture, Technical Account Management, and Senior Solutions Architecture.

Along the way, I completed an MBA from Grenoble École de Management to align technical design directly with corporate commercial strategies. I specialize in bridging product, engineering, and commercial teams, conducting workshops that turn ambiguous executive hurdles into actionable roadmaps.
