Sapient

Director Technology

Jun 2006 – Jul 2013 · 7 yrs 1 mo · Gurgaon, London, Boston

I was often the first person to seed large teams & then went on to lead those entire engagements. I had a very high success rate in balancing business priorities against solution quality.
At Sapient, because of the above two skills, I ended up with an extremely diverse and rich body of work where I provided overall implementation strategy and roadmaps for e-commerece, analytics, investment banking, asset management and telecom oriented projects.
In doing so, I developed a very strong mix of technology, domain and people skills. I earned a decisive say in strategic planning, team structure, architecture and overall implementation of projects, in globally distributed teams.
I was also a very active contributor in Leadership fora, leading several initiatives in brand building, profitability, efficient hiring and learning and development for my employers.

The projects' objectives were to uncover actionable insights from member behaviour and allow businesses to customize marketing initiatives for segments in order to impact engagement and eventually lift on in-store sales.
The most notable clients were world's largest soft drink businesses and world’s largest clothing retailer.
