What I'm looking for

I'm looking to deliver secure, scalable payment, core banking, cloud, and automation solutions while leading cross-functional teams, improving operations, and translating technical requirements into customer-focused outcomes.

I've led delivery of the BCRG Instant Payment System and Mobile Wallet Solution at All In Payment Services, connecting SmartVista Switch, Mojaloop, and core banking systems for financial institutions across West Africa. My work increased customer adoption by 25% while meeting ISO 20022 and PCI DSS requirements.

Across Nedbank, Postbank, EFT Corporation, and All In Payment Services, I've implemented and supported Oracle FLEXCUBE, ACI Postilion, Mantas AML, Azure environments, payment migrations, and service operations. I translate complex technical requirements for stakeholders and lead cross-functional teams to deliver secure, on-time, within-budget outcomes.
