Jitendra Chaudhary — Software Engineer

Product-minded technologist with 7+ years of experience building and shipping enterprise HCM software at UKG, now completing an Executive MBA from FMS Delhi to transition into Product Management and Business Analysis. At UKG, I've worked at the intersection of product, engineering, and customer experience — owning end-to-end quality for HCM modules used by thousands of organizations globally. I've collaborated with product managers, developers, and business stakeholders to translate requirements into testable specifications, identify gaps in user workflows, and drive data-backed decisions that reduced production defects and improved release velocity. My MBA has sharpened my thinking across strategy, finance, and analytics — giving me the frameworks to evaluate market opportunities, build business cases, and prioritize ruthlessly. I bring a rare combination: deep technical fluency in SaaS product development + structured business thinking from a top-tier MBA program. I am now seeking roles where I can own product outcomes — defining what to build, why it matters, and how to measure success. Core strengths: Requirements Analysis | Stakeholder Management | Agile/Scrum | Data-Driven Decision Making | User-Centric Thinking | Cross-Functional Leadership

UKG is a leading global HCM platform serving 80,000+ organizations. As a senior engineer on the product team, I own quality and delivery for core HCM modules across UI and API layers.

Built a hybrid automation framework (Java, Selenium, Rest Assured) that cut regression cycle time by 40%, enabling the team to ship bi-weekly releases instead of monthly. - Designed CI/CD pipelines in Jenkins and GitHub Actions, reducing build validation time by 50% and improving deployment confidence across environments
Created a reusable test data framework that eliminated manual data setup, saving ~8 hours/sprint for the team and reducing environment-related blockers
Conducted SQL-based data validation across HCM modules, ensuring data integrity for employee records, compensation, and benefits processing
Collaborated with cross-functional stakeholders (Product, Engineering, Support) to prioritize defect backlogs based on customer impact and business criticality
