At Walmart Global Tech, I lead AML data-platform modernization across discovery, architecture, development, deployment, and production support. I guide around 10 engineers and modernized legacy processing to GCP with Spark, Scala, and Airflow-driven CI/CD, improving performance by 40%.

Across 17+ years in data engineering, AML, cloud platforms, and delivery leadership, I’ve managed 40+ direct reports at Cognizant and delivered SAS AML solutions for banking clients. I bring together engineering, compliance, risk, and business stakeholders to build secure, auditable financial-data platforms, including data quality, reconciliation, lineage, encryption, masking, and RBAC controls.
