Scale Your Fintech Without Sacrificing Stability 🚀
Co-Founder & Head of Technology @ Mintoria | Ex-Scotiabank | .NET, Web3 & AI Architect
⚡ What I Do
I bridge the gap between the rigorous stability of traditional banking and the rapid innovation of AI-native, Web3-powered finance. With over a decade of experience designing resilient systems, I lead the technical vision at Mintoria, building the future of banking through Stablecoins and AI.
🎯 The Hook: Stability Meets Innovation
In fintech, you're usually forced to choose: the agility of a startup or the reliability of a bank. I deliver both.
I bring the engineering rigor of Scotiabank to the frontier of AI and Web3, ensuring your innovation is built on a foundation that won't crack under pressure. Whether it's migrating 13 legacy platforms to the cloud or architecting a secure, AI-driven banking platform from the ground up, I focus on one thing: building software that lasts.
📈 Impact & Proof
- Mintoria (Current): Architecting a secure, AI-native banking platform that bridges traditional finance with Stablecoin liquidity. Leading infrastructure on Azure and secure blockchain integrations.
- Scotiabank: Modernized 13 critical banking platforms, eliminating legacy bottlenecks and ensuring 99.9% uptime on Azure.
- BairesDev (LensLock): Boosted system performance by 20% and slashed downtime by 30% through algorithmic optimization.
- Crisis Response: Delivered loan moratorium support to 1,500+ clients during the COVID-19 pandemic, ensuring financial continuity in a global crisis.
⚙️ How I Work
I believe that architecture is about trade-offs, not perfection. My approach combines:
- Pragmatic Innovation: Using AI and Web3 to solve real business problems, not just for the hype.
- Banking-Grade Security: Applying zero-trust principles and rigorous testing to every line of code.
- Scalable Foundations: Designing systems that handle today's load while being ready for tomorrow's growth.
