Banking Client has two different platforms in order to process the EDI Files from the customer for origination of Payments as well as
reporting of advices. These are existing platforms with requirements for development of new application, maintenance of existing
application and Production Support tasks for smooth flow of Payments/Advices to various customers of the bank. These payments are
billed inside the application and is sent to downstream applications.
Roles & Responsibilities:
• Create high level business requirements, and transform into software programs, assist in end to end testing including QA
and UAT testing.
• SME for financial applications for the bank, including stop gap analysis for migration of legacy system to web based
application.
• Application Rationalization: Understanding application, and assist in migrating old application to new application,
including stop gap analysis.The bank was running on legacy application involving 1000’s of components. Documenting the
high level functions of application, and translating into target application requirements was done as part of this.
• Software Upgrades: Considered SME for maintaining, upgrading application level softwares for the bank. This includes:
o Creating high level designs and implementation for Connexion, Gentran, Psypher ( encryption ) for the bank, and
install in production environment after extensive coding and testing.
o This project is one of the complex projects involving more than 500 programs, database, control card, cluster and
VSAM changes. This is the core application software upgrade, since the payments are processed through these.
• Stability Initiatives: Came up with and delivered multiple ideas resulting in measurable increase in stability of the
application including reduction in maintenance cost. Some examples include:
o Oversaw implementation of project to eliminate issues relating to customers files being dropped due to rapid file
delivery.
o Drove P2-P4 incident reduction efforts resulting gradual decrease in generated tickets. The Y0Y reduction for the
year ended was 90%.

3. o In accordance with being an Active-Active System, lead the project for creation of email alerts to be sent to
Production Management without halting any application process.
• Cost Saves and Efficiency Efforts: As part of system performance and cost review, identified unnecessary costs being
incurred and came up with ideas to eliminate such costs. To list a few:
o Identified and removed more than 5000 obsolete scheduling setups which resulted in a saving of USD 30,000 per
year.
o Played the role of application SME in moving the application from an old, unsupported, slower data center to a
new, faster data center. The project resulted in a 60 % faster CPU performance, risk mitigation due to “Encryption
at Rest” and an expected savings of more than USD 30 million.
• Vendor and Customer Management: Acting as the security Liaison for external business partners and technology POC
for Vendors to provide on-time communication resulting in smooth and stable applications.
• Continuous Service Improvement: In line with the ITIL process, provided training and documentation to the team;
worked with business partners to close any gaps; result was seen with 80 %reduction in YoY P1 incidents and reduction in
MTTR for all incidents.
• Project Management: Manage 5-10 team members which include effective allocation of work, and provide constructive
feedback on timely basis. Work with different stake holders like DBA, external vendors to transform functional
requirements into application requirements. This includes handling 1000+ man hour projects.
• Business Analysis: Identify process bottlenecks and implemented new and improved processes and policies including different
checkpoints, and also addressing knowledge deficiency within the team.
o Forecasting and planning – Create estimation and high level design flows, for the complex projects by
coordinating with different stake holders (Database team, testing team, different Vendors), and making sure
processes/timelines are adhered to.
o Create different metrics for the bank to understand total dollar volume/transactions, and provide business
directions to offshore team, to improve overall productivity of the application.
o Assist in business analysis tasks for other teams within Accenture.
o Restructured the payment processing flows for the bank by automating and improving operating efficiency,
thereby reducing the headcount in Accenture. This was win-win for Accenture and clients.
• Risk Control and Resiliency: Worked on several tasks to identify and mitigate application risks and make the system resilient:
o Remediated security risk by implementing a change to segregate User entitlements in the CICS online region by Use
Ranks.
o Gathered evidence for assessment of application risk; closed risks identified by identifying and implementing strategic
fixes.
o Lead the effort to secure all transmissions in and out of the applications.
o Maintained DR TRAP and performed annual DR exercises as proof of application resiliency.
o Lead the implementation of splitting Production and Test regions of the SYSPLEXED Mainframe paving the way for
application to be “SUSTAINED RESILIENCY” ready.
Achievements:
- Winner of various awards for the exceptional performance shown during the projects including Global Recognition Award which is
highest level of recognition given by the client team.
- Designed and Implemented client approved software in Ca7 batch scheduling system which resulted in aggregate annual savings
of 50000$.
- Appreciated by client for researching and optimizing application performance resulting in an annual saving of approx. $100,000.
- Application SME in moving the application from an old, unsupported, slower data center to a new, faster data center which
is projected to save more than 30 million USD per year.
- Have worked on production support, development and testing team actively.
