This program assisted the client in enhancing the SDLC process as well as developing data onboarding and quality monitoring procedures across critical data sets.

Data Migration -  In support of cloud and data migrations (Azure/Snowflake), lead the development of enterprise-ready modern data management software platform for self-service data provisioning and data preparation with integrated metadata management, data governance, information security and leading practices inspired by our industry experience of large data platform implementations. The deployed platform  provides data management, data operations and actionable data governance capabilities for scale-out architectures.

Client 360- Leveraged graph technology as well as cloud based architecture to develop single client data models for both retail and institutional clients.

Next Best Action / Next Best Offer- developed and integrated NBA/NBO across a number of use cases, driving both advisory productivity, as well as recommendations around advice. Models were integrated into leading CRM tools for actioning.

Marketing / Distribution AI- Led the design and custom development of an AI (NLP /ML) solution to accelerate the development, review, and distribution of marketing material (Proposals, Fact Sheets, Commentary pieces).  As a result of the implementation, enhanced the customization of content, while reducing time to market by as much as 90%.
