Selected experience
Delivery experience behind the architecture practice
The Dragonfruit Technologies consulting practice is built on practical delivery experience across HRIS, payroll, recruiting, onboarding, testing, governance, and post-go-live support. These examples describe experience and areas of contribution; module exposure does not imply equal hands-on configuration depth across every area.
