I am an Azure Integration Architect with 14+ years of experience across healthcare, industrial, BFS, and FMCG domains, specializing in Azure Integration Services (AIS) and cloud-native integration architectures. I currently work at ITC Infotech, leading enterprise-scale digital transformation initiatives for global clients. My core expertise lies in designing and governing event-driven, asynchronous, and API-led integration frameworks using Azure Service Bus, Azure Functions (.NET), Logic Apps, API Management, Event Grid, and other Azure PaaS services. I have a proven track record in defining standardized integration frameworks, reusable architectural patterns, and organization-wide best practices that are reviewed and approved by architecture review boards. I bring strong hands-on experience in: Designing robust async messaging frameworks with retry strategies, DLQ handling, error categorization (technical vs business), and observability Building enterprise-grade token management and authentication solutions with caching and cross-market reuse Creating component-level design (CLD) documents aligned to CMMI Level 5 standards Establishing logging, monitoring, and alerting strategies using Application Insights and Log Analytics Leading architecture discussions and ensuring alignment with non-functional requirements such as scalability, resiliency, security, and cost optimization I have been actively involved in cross-country integrations (JP, CH, FR, GR, CA) spanning Salesforce, loyalty platforms, eCommerce, CRM, and middleware ecosystems. I am known for clear architectural thinking, strong design documentation, and the ability to translate complex business requirements into scalable Azure integration solutions. Alongside my architect role, I actively coach professionals on interview preparation and career transitions. I help with: Clearing doubts while switching careers or moving into cloud and architect roles HR discussion strategies, including expectation setting and role alignment Salary and offer negotiation techniques Naukri profile refinement and effective job-application strategies to increase interview calls ATS-friendly resume preparation, tailored for Azure, integration, and cloud roles All guidance is based on real hiring scenarios, interview panels, and enterprise expectations, helping professionals approach interviews and career decisions with clarity and confidence.
