Bibhudatta Samal — Director of Engineering
I am a Workday and HR Transformation leader with a strong track record of driving large-scale digital transformation programs and building high-impact client partnerships. Over the years, I have worked closely with HRIT leaders, and senior executives to shape and deliver enterprise-wide HR technology strategies that create measurable business value. My experience spans leading complex Workday implementations, managing multi-million revenue portfolios, and consistently delivering on sales, pipeline, and growth targets. I have played a key role in expanding account footprints through cross-sell and up-sell initiatives, as well as closing strategic deals, including divestment-led transformations. Beyond delivery, I am deeply involved in pre-sales and solutioning, helping clients navigate their transformation journeys with pragmatic and scalable approaches. I enjoy working at the intersection of business and technology, translating strategic vision into executable roadmaps. I am equally passionate about building and mentoring high-performing teams, fostering a culture of ownership, collaboration, and continuous learning. Over the past few years, I have also contributed to leadership initiatives focused on talent development and organizational growth. Currently, I am focused on scaling large client engagements, unlocking new growth opportunities, and driving sustained value for global organizations, particularly those operating through Global Capability Centers in India. Outside of work, I enjoy traveling, exploring new cuisines, playing tennis, and following Formula 1. I am always open to connecting with professionals in the HR technology and transformation space.
