About

A hands-on architect bridging business goals with scalable platforms and secure, cloud-hybrid execution.

Sunil is a passionate and curious architect with 18+ years of experience leading IT architecture across large-scale enterprise environments. He specializes in designing future-ready, business-aligned digital ecosystems across manufacturing and energy.

His domain expertise spans CRM, ALM, PLM, testing, and simulation, with proven delivery across Sales & R&D systems, Data & AI platforms, and IT4IT-aligned architecture built on secure, cloud-hybrid infrastructure.

Above all — building beautiful, useful, and durable architecture that inspires trust, enables agility, and delivers true business value.

Focus

Architecture that turns complexity into clarity — and strategy into execution.

What I build

  • Enterprise & solution architecture at scale
  • Data & AI platforms with business outcomes
  • IT4IT-aligned operating models & information architecture
  • Cloud & hybrid platforms with security by design
  • Transformation across manufacturing & energy

What I avoid

  • Architecture as slideware or shelf documentation
  • Tool-driven design without business context
  • Over-engineered solutions with no adoption path
  • Technology decisions without ownership
  • Transformation without measurable value

Domain & Business Context

Deep industry expertise across manufacturing, energy, and technology sectors.
