Navigating My Professional Journey: From SAP SD Consultant to Yash Technologies

My journey in the world of software solutions and client implementations began in 2013 when I started my career as a SAP SD consultant at Itelligence India software solutions pvt ltd. This role laid the foundation for my expertise in leveraging SAP systems to deliver robust and scalable solutions.

Early Success and Promotions

Immediately, I joined the industry solutions team where I contributed to the development and implementation of proprietary industry-specific solutions, particularly focusing on the IPI (Integrated Procurement and Inventory) module. Within just three months of joining, I was sent to Hong Kong for a high-profile implementation project. Due to my outstanding performance, I received a substantial salary hike of 60%, solidifying my reputation as a capable professional.

Following the successful completion of the Hong Kong project, I was assigned to a Singapore-based project, which again required on-site work. My dedication and performance led to another promotion, further escalating my salary by an additional 20%. This period was marked by technological advancements and the learning of new languages such as ABAP, which I successfully integrated into my projects.

The complexity of the U.S. implementation project further honed my technical skills and exposed me to diverse problem-solving scenarios. Post-project, I received valuable feedback from my manager, Sanjeev Deshpande, highlighting my technical prowess while advising me to focus on improving my communication skills, especially during the blueprint phase with clients.

Evolution of Skills and Leadership

In 2016, I relocated to Bangalore and joined Robert Bosch, a leading automotive company. Here, I worked on custom tools developed using C at the frontend and SAP as the backend. The company's clientele were satisfied with my work, and I was promoted to a permanent position within six months. The next logical step was a role as a Project Manager, an experience that allowed me to lead clients and contribute to successful deployments.

Despite a brief tenure at Infosys from 2018-2020, it was marked by significant challenges. The poorly supported and maintained AMS (All Modules Support) projects with minimal professional growth opportunities made it a challenging period. I had to put up with rude managers who publicly criticized employees, inadequate compensation, and strict micromanaging policies. It was a period that required resilience and adaptability.

Current Endeavors and Aspirations

My current role as a SAP SD consultant at Yash Technologies, starting from November 2021, has been a refreshing change. Working with a pharmaceutical company, I once again demonstrated my skills, leading to a significant salary hike. Within six months, I was entrusted with an additional role working on the client's payroll systems, further showcasing my leadership and expertise.

The highlight of this current phase was the assignment to work on-site in Israel, which presented unique challenges and opportunities. The combination of tasks and responsibilities allowed me to not only enhance my technical skills but also to refine my approach to solving complex issues under tight deadlines.

Conclusion

What started as a simple journey has transformed into a series of experiences and achievements that have significantly shaped my professional reputation. Through diverse roles, continuous learning, and unwavering commitment, I have navigated various challenges and emerged stronger, continually evolving my skills and knowledge. My journey with Yash Technologies is likely to be another step forward in what I hope is a long and fulfilling career in technology and client solutions.
