Professional Summary

I'm Joseph Vijaya Kumar J — an accomplished Senior Technical Project Manager with 15+ years of experience leading cross-functional engineering teams and delivering enterprise SaaS platforms, full-stack web applications, and InsurTech solutions.

I excel at bridging technical depth with delivery leadership — driving end-to-end SDLC execution across Angular, Node.js, and AWS environments. My proven track record spans stakeholder management, cloud modernization, and pioneering AI-first development workflows using Agentic AI and MCP protocols to optimize developer productivity.

Outside of my corporate work, I build production SaaS products independently — Kanithan (AI expense tracker PWA) and Xplit (global group expense splitter) — both live and serving real users today.
