Solutions Architect | Intelligent Automation & RPA | Designing Scalable Digital Transformation for Financial Services

About

Solutions Architect with 12+ years of experience designing and delivering data-driven, AI-enabled, and intelligent automation platforms within Financial Services, including Investment Banking and Real Estate Investment Management. I specialise in translating complex business workflows into scalable end-to-end solutions that combine data platforms, automation, and system integration to improve operational resilience, regulatory controls, and decision-making. My work spans platform modernisation, reconciliation and exception-management systems, and automation-led transformation across front-to-back financial processes. I bring deep hands-on expertise across intelligent automation and data technologies including Xceptor, Alteryx, UiPath, Blue Prism, Power Automate, Python, and API-based integrations, while maintaining a strong focus on architecture, governance, and long-term sustainability rather than tool-centric delivery. With an MBA background and strong domain understanding, I work closely with business, operations, and technology stakeholders to define target architectures, evaluate ROI, and ensure solutions align with enterprise strategy and regulatory expectations. I am particularly interested in roles focused on Data & AI platforms, intelligent automation, and digital transformation initiatives where business impact, scalability, and domain depth are critical.
