  • Proven track record of successfully defining and executing a Core Banking replacement or major upgrade program in a regional or global financial institution.
  • Strong understanding of modern banking technologies, including cloud computing, microservices architecture, APIs, and data migration strategies.
  • Exceptional strategic thinking, problem‑solving, and communication skills, with the ability to present complex technical and business concepts to executive audiences.
