I'm a technology leader and software architect with 19 years' experience, 17 of them in financial services. As Chief Platform Officer at Fignum, I lead the architecture, engineering and AI strategy for loan origination and servicing platforms used by specialist lenders, working closely with clients from pre-sales through to delivery.

AI

Leading Claude Code and GitHub Copilot adoption with internal MCP servers and shared skills, for an estimated 2x-10x increase in delivery capacity, and defining in-product agentic AI

Platforms

Architecting a shared platform behind configurable loan origination and servicing products, live with mortgage and motor lenders

Clients

Technical pre-sales and RFPs, with AI-powered prototyping sessions that cut implementation requirements gathering to around a week

Leadership
