@dejidipeolu
I build responsible AI, cloud, and data platforms for regulated financial services.
What I'm looking for
I've advised UBS, Credit Suisse, Barclays, and JP Morgan on cloud, data, risk, and regulatory transformation in FINMA-, SOX-, and Dodd-Frank-regulated environments.
At UBS, I guided an enterprise client-data migration through governance and system decisions for ExCo, while building Python and SQL tooling for data quality, validation, and remediation. At Credit Suisse, I led Treasury platform modernisation from legacy data warehousing to Hadoop/HDFS and Kafka while preserving FINMA-audited controls.
I'm also the founder and architect of Marginborn, a production agentic app I shipped end-to-end with multi-model routing, MCP coordination, evaluation harnesses, human gates, and zero-knowledge encryption. I focus on responsible, human-centred AI deployment that connects business value, secure delivery, and real-world adoption.
