I served as the primary architect and then Engineering Manager for a large-scale Core Banking Deposit replacement, overseeing a multi-year initiative involving 100s of banking professionals. The project is focused on replacing a mainframe-hosted legacy system with a modern, cloud SaaS solution and a cloud-native integration layer which enables over 100 systems to communicate with the cores.To address the complexities of scale, I designed a multi-layered microservice-based architecture, ensuring minimal disruption to existing systems by maintaining API contracts. A key innovation was the development of a reverse-transformation architecture that converts data from the new core system back into legacy formats, ensuring seamless integration across both mainframe and cloud environments.I also built and managed agile teams that specialize in customer, account, product, and transaction domains, hiring over 30 highly skilled engineers to drive the project's success. My focus on strategic integration patterns and architectural best practices enables the organization to modernize its systems while minimizing business risks and ensuring regulatory compliance.
