SUMITOMO MITSUI TRUST BANK (U. S. A.), NJ

FEBRUARY 2012- Present

Global Head of Quality Management / VP, Office of the CIO

Global head of Software Quality Assurance Organization working in a Senior

Leadership role reporting to Information technology (IT) head (CIO), I

was responsible for IT operations of SMTB's (Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Bank)

150 plus software products, which included internet, intranet and vendor

based applications.

Within a period of one year I was able to achieve an overall savings of

$1,750,000 by introducing automated frameworks for all the in-house

applications, renegotiating vendor contracts, and by organized execution of

strategy thus reducing the effort almost by 50% and also ensured that the

existing systems functioned to work as expected and that development

project requirements have been met.

Under the OCIO performed IT management tasks delegated by the CIO, created

solid IT governance processes with a vision of repeatable IT processes,

clear lines of project accountability and consistent communication of

standards. Set a goal, a vision, a direction, and motivating and inspiring

environment.

As the director at the OCIO (Office of the CIO) had core responsibilities

of vendor management, communications, infrastructure, project management

and new technology decision making.

The improved communication at the higher levels allowed the executive

leadership to view technology as an investment

Although a Quality Assurance head while being under the umbrella of Senior

Management had horizontal responsibilities for Production Support, Vendor

Management, Information Security, Network Management and Release

Management. By setting up standards in these departments I was able to

achieve a drop of 35% fewer production incidents and by setting up a

release policies and procedures regularized changes funneling into other

environments decreased release managers time by over 50%. By introducing

new open source server monitoring tools like OPENNMS, Splunk, and ObserveIT

was able to cut down turnaround time of incidents/issues by 80%.

After initiating a reorg, managed team of 30 + highly skilled

professionals, comprising of Directors, Managers, Sr & Jr Analyst's, BA's

was able to achieve successful architectural changes with no incidents

reported in Production. Responsible for the QA of domestic tax

reporting workflow for the Income and Tax Collection department by

platform) in order to provide functionality for a bulk interest rate

adjustment, reallocation of equity shares, re-booking loans when

changes occur in key fields like securities, broker, finder, etc., and

to test the modified Lending Daily Limit Report which details account

usage for indemnified and non-indemnified accounts.

. Global Custodian & Corporate Actions Office---Tested the enhancement

to BaNCS (TCS-Corporate Actions) application which was originally

built to handle reconciliation between loan positions and corporate

actions so to automatically generate dividend claims. Subsequently it

was also used to handle complex income such as Australia, where for a
