Ryan Waites Email & Phone Number

Ryan Waites is a Lead Architect at NatWest Group. Colleagues describe them as "I have worked with Ryan over the last year whilst working at Atom bank, and he has been consistent source of specialist knowledge surrounding data architecture patterns (e.g. Kappa, Lambda etc), microservice design, as well as underlying event sourcing technologies such as Apache Kafka. This knowledge has been paramount to the success of multiple projects within Atom bank. Given this, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Ryan for architecture roles." and "Ryan is a Senior Data Architect, but well-rounded in his skills, lending his hand to several other architecture disciplines, including solution, enterprise, application and so much more. Ryan has been a mentor to me and other architects within our team, sharing his knowledge on banking processes, solution concepts, data architecture principles, technical detail and specialist knowledge on projects he has worked on. He is an invaluable source of information and knowledge. Ryan has pioneered and heavily influenced several key strategy decisions within Atom, including introduction of Kappa architecture for managing Atom’s data, setting the foundations for Atom’s goal of being a data driven organisation. He has been key to the introduction of Atom’s new banking platform and releasing the first product to the public based on an entire new architecture stack. He has a unique ability that is difficult to find; having the vision to produce well thought out solutions in line with the overall strategy, and the technical ability to dig into the implementation where needed to assist in development work to get things done. Working in a small challenger bank, this skill set is a real asset indeed. I’d recommend Ryan time and time again for Architecture roles without hesitation. "
