Rohit Iyer — Senior Program Manager

Bengaluru, Karnataka

Program manager for hardware and software launches at an electric fleet company, seven years running delivery across engineering, firmware and field teams. Landed a 4,200-vehicle telematics rollout in 14 cities three weeks early and 8% under a ₹6.4 crore budget.

Experience

Senior Program Manager, Nirvaan Mobility · January 2023 – present

Owns launch delivery for the telematics platform: hardware, firmware, backend and field installation.

  • Cut the firmware release train from six weeks to 12 days by splitting one monolithic test cycle into staged hardware-in-the-loop gates.
  • Introduced a single risk register across four squads, taking scope added mid-quarter from 31% of the plan to 9%.
  • Chairs the launch readiness review for every release; the last nine shipped without a rollback, after four rollbacks the year before.

Program Manager, Kestrel Freight Systems · August 2020 – December 2022

  • Migrated 1,900 fleet customers onto a new dispatch platform over nine months at 99.4% data accuracy and with no billing disputes raised.
  • Mapped dependencies across six teams, which took the average age of a cross-team blocker from 12 days to 3.
  • Chaired the review after a two-day outage and drove the seven actions that followed; the same failure has not recurred in three years.

Why this Program Manager résumé works

  • The summary closes on one delivery with all three measures attached: 4,200 vehicles in 14 cities, three weeks early and 8% under a ₹6.4 crore budget, which is the scope, schedule and cost a program manager is hired to hold.
  • Process changes are written as before-and-after numbers: the firmware release train cut “from six weeks to 12 days” and mid-quarter scope added taken from 31% to 9% show governance that changed outcomes, not meetings attended.
  • Release quality is stated as a streak: “the last nine shipped without a rollback” after four rollbacks the year before, which answers the question every engineering leader asks of a program manager.
  • The Varnika Foods role is kept and marked as a contract, with all 42 plant sign-offs closed before the audit window, so the short tenure reads as a finished engagement rather than a gap.

Program Manager résumé: common questions

How long should a program manager resume be?

One dense page or a light second page both work at around seven years with three employers; two pages are normal after that. Spend the space on the most recent programme’s scope, budget and dates, and cut early roles to two bullets.

Should a program manager resume list PMP and Scrum certifications?

Yes, in a certifications section with the year. In India many hiring teams filter program roles on PMP. Back each one with a bullet that shows the practice, such as a risk register or a release train, so it reads as more than a badge.

Should an Indian program manager resume include CGPA?

After five or more years it is optional. A strong figure such as an 8.2 CGPA from an NIT can stay on one line under the degree, but education should sit below work experience, never above it.
