Senior Technical Program Manager

Technical Program Manager

NextEra Energy, Inc.

- Have managed the development and delivery of OPC UA server application which allows operations to monitor generation sites in real-time. I also managed its deployment using AWS Fargate.
- Have helped drive a multi-million dollar, cloud based IoT and data historian project reading 4MM data points at 24B data points per day. I have provided SME support related to protocols, edge devices computation and data flow, scoping work, specifying customer requirements, designing and implementing of visualization infrastructure for real-time operational data monitoring of NextEra’s entire renewable fleet.
- Designed and managed the development of NextEra’s generation data visualization system infrastructure in AWS cloud. Moreover, I hardened the infrastructure by making it highly available and scalable using 9 EC2s, ASG and load balancer.
- Managed the development of innovative and custom security plugin to an application called Ignition and integrated it to a backend token-service API. This effort has enabled users to automatically assume roles and dynamically provision them access to the right Ignition resources.
- Employed extensive python scripting to make dynamic visualization screens a reality for the above mentioned IoT project. This was applied to various technologies including Wind, Solar, Battery and Fossil resulting in 400k dollars cost saving and have allowed quicker and more efficient onboarding of new sites. I later became Green Belt certified for creating a Six Sigma process to come up with the solution and successfully deploy it across the system of 360 plus sites with 2MM data points being monitored visually.
- Have managed NextEra’s data historian system (PI) by managing hundreds of servers and interfaces to ensure 24x7 system availability for operations and various users across the company.
 - Prepared scope of work and functional requirement documents for various projects. Reviewed bidding documents and prepared comparison matrix used for vendor selection.
