Building technology that ships,
and strategy that keeps moving.

Senior Consultant at EY Studio+ helping organizations make complex technology work in the real world. Across SAP America, EY, and EY Studio+, I've shipped retail platforms, cleared federal audits, and shaped AI strategy for Fortune 500 clients. I connect business goals with the technical execution needed to make systems reliable, useful, and ready to scale.

Five years turning complex programs into shipped outcomes.

I started at SAP America coordinating product delivery across Germany, the US, and India — learning how enterprise decisions move when product, engineering, and business teams all have a seat at the table. That foundation carried into four years at EY, where I helped ship a 100+ location retail platform, supported a federal cloud implementation with zero audit findings, and built observability practices that reduced incidents and response times.

Now at EY Studio+, I work at the intersection of delivery, reliability, and AI strategy — helping Consumer, Retail, and Health teams turn ambitious technology ideas into practical systems, workflows, and operating models that can survive real production environments.

Less interested in AI hype than in how large organizations actually move past pilots and put it to work.

I came up through Informatics and a Master's in Information Systems at Indiana University's Kelley School of Business. Alongside certifications across AWS, Azure, SAFe, and DeepLearning.AI generative AI coursework, I'm currently working through Azure AI-901 and AI-103 prep while coding AI-focused side projects.

Problems, turned into products.

When I’m not working on client projects, I keep learning by turning recurring problems into working products. These open-source builds let me explore new domains, make practical product decisions, and carry an idea from first principles through design, engineering, testing, and release. The projects below span code understanding, learning, documents, forecasting, travel planning, health education, personal contingency planning, candidate-controlled job search, and intentional play; their source and release history live at github.com/udhawan97.
