Software Architect who transformed a small financial-institution engineering team's delivery capability — from ad hoc practices to production-proven standards, reusable platforms, and regulated system integrations — while building the systems that now run in production.

Software Architect specializing in engineering transformation, platform engineering, and modernization of regulated financial systems. Helped establish the software engineering foundation for a growing credit-union development team — introducing standards, reusable libraries, service templates, CI/CD patterns, and observability while building production services, batch automation, and core-system integrations across a 100+ repository ecosystem.

Capabilities

Enterprise Integration A

Designed and led safe integration between a third-party loan-origination system (Sync1) and a Db2 core banking platform (Keystone) via a data-lake boundary and a custom-table writer. Production result: approximately 97.5% write success across 582 funded loans, zero duplicates, verified by live database query 2026-06-26.

Batch Modernization B

Standardized and modernized Keystone batch jobs through reusable templates (masterbatchtemplete, master_batch_template_maven), a shared batch library (revbatchlibrary), and Maven archetypes. Repository inventory: 36 batch repos, 9 batch template/library repos.

CI/CD and Delivery B

Defined and operated a traceable delivery process: branching strategy, release candidates, promote-don't-rebuild (UAT-passed artifact promoted byte-identical), automated Bitbucket Pipelines (build to Azure Container Registry, deploy via az containerapp update), and artifact publishing to the internal Maven feed. Real pipelines confirmed in Sync1 repos.

Sync1 Loan-Origination Integration

Headline Designed and led a production loan-origination integration that has booked 580+ funded consumer loans into a core banking system at approximately 97.5% write success, with zero duplicate records across 3,400+ staged applications.

Executive Summary REV Federal Credit Union replaced its loan origination system (MeridianLink) with Sync1 under a hard contract-expiry deadline. Funded-loan data created in Sync1 had to flow automatically and safely into the Keystone core banking platform (IBM Db2) and into the BI data lake (SQL Server) for PowerBI reporting. I designed and built a two-service, data-lake-mediated pipeline — the extraction service calls Sync1 via a hybrid REST and GraphQL approach and stages raw payloads; the writer service reads staged funded rows and writes Keystone custom tables through the Keybridge API with read-before-write and change-only semantics. Full production cutover was completed in early June 2026; MeridianLink was disconnected and decommissioned.
