Profile

From .NET code to IFRS 17 delivery governance

Deepak is an insurance technology practitioner with 13+ years of experience across UK and US P&C markets, progressing from .NET developer and Guidewire developer lead to technical-functional business analyst and technology delivery lead.

His delivery experience spans Guidewire InsuranceSuite, London Market reporting, pricing and rating, systems integration, IFRS 17 and MI dashboards. Most recently, he has led IFRS 17 and Head Office reporting delivery for a major London Market insurer, managing a blended onshore/offshore delivery team through a structured quarterly release train.

Alongside domain delivery, he owns the governance side of the job — budget and finance reporting, resource planning, RAID logs and release governance — and applies agentic AI to solve everyday delivery bottlenecks, using tools like Microsoft Copilot to accelerate user stories, test cases and documentation.
