Contributing to a large-scale network inventory migration project for a leading US telecom provider, focused on ensuring accurate data transfer, logical consistency, and fallout resolution during platform transition.

Key Contributions:

• Played a key role in analyzing complex network hierarchies and relationships (e.g., nodes, links, circuits) to ensure accurate mapping in the new inventory platform.
• Supported the migration of large telecom datasets, identifying and addressing data fallouts such as missing links, broken associations, and structural mismatches.
• Investigated root causes of data fallouts, including schema misalignments, upstream data quality issues, and transformation gaps.
• Collaborated with inventory platform teams, network architects, and data engineers to define validation logic and enhance migration accuracy.
• Helped improve overall data integrity and completeness, enabling the client to confidently use the new platform for network operations and planning.

Played a key role in enabling real-time EMS (Element Management System) reconciliation for a major US-based telecom provider. Focused on building end-to-end automated workflows to parse, validate, and analyze network inventory data from Kafka-based JSON extracts.

Key Contributions:

• Built robust ETL workflows using Alteryx and KNIME to extract, transform, and validate JSON data received from Kafka streams.
• Automated the detection of missing, malformed, or non-compliant fields to ensure data completeness and consistency per client specifications.
• Enabled real-time visibility into network inventory, highlighting what assets were active, idle, broken, or available for repurposing/sale.
• Delivered structured reconciliation reports that allowed the client to optimize asset utilization, reduce network blind spots, and prioritize maintenance efforts.
• Significantly reduced manual effort and error through automation, supporting accurate and timely network planning decisions.

Advised a major Indonesian telecom operator on revenue assurance and operational data integrity for its B2B and Wholesale segments. Focused on building automated dashboards and data validation frameworks to detect and prevent financial leakages.

Key Contributions:

• Designed and deployed automated Power BI dashboards that continuously monitor inventory, pricing, and control thresholds — enabling real-time issue detection and root cause analysis.
• Identified and visualized $100K+ in revenue leakages, with dashboards uncovering pricing discrepancies, incomplete data, and billing gaps — providing high-visibility insights for business stakeholders.
• Built inventory management dashboards with return order tracking and stock depletion forecasting, supporting accurate supply chain planning.
• Implemented threshold-based alerts in assurance dashboards to flag deviations from expected values, allowing clients to respond to anomalies before they escalate.
• Collaborated with cross-functional teams (finance, product, ops) to align revenue assurance goals, define validation rules, and improve overall data trust.

Worked as part of EY’s consulting team supporting a large-scale network rollout for a leading US telecom provider. Focused on operational analytics, issue resolution, and stakeholder management to drive timely network deployment.

Key Responsibilities & Achievements:

• Monitored rollout progress and fallout issues using SQL, Excel, and Power BI, helping identify delays and discrepancies in deployment data.
• Designed and maintained Kanban-style dashboards in Power BI to visualize stuck items, enabling leadership to take timely actions.
• Investigated long-standing network rollout issues, identified root causes, and coordinated with cross-functional teams for resolution.
• Led regular stakeholder meetings with project managers, engineers, and data teams to unblock bottlenecks and reduce backlog.
• Developed automated reporting solutions to improve visibility into project metrics and ensure accurate tracking of rollout activities.

This role combined data analytics, business operations, and client interaction, giving me a strong foundation in telecom project delivery, process optimization, and real-time decision support.
