Call me to talk about

Apache Kafka / Event-Driven Architecture

I've spent 20 years building and leading engineering teams across capital markets infrastructure at Tier-1 banks including Macquarie Group, Credit Suisse, ANZ, and ABN AMRO Clearing.
In that time I've designed and delivered Kafka-based event-driven architectures for high-throughput payments and trading systems — from initial topology decisions through to production operations at scale.
On a call with me you can get help with:

Kafka architecture design — topics, partitions, consumer groups, replication
Event-driven patterns for financial services (CQRS, event sourcing, saga)

Kafka in containerised environments (Kubernetes, EKS)
Schema design and evolution (Avro, Schema Registry)
Troubleshooting performance, lag, and reliability issues

Payments Infrastructure / SWIFT & ISO 20022

I've spent 20 years designing and delivering payments infrastructure across capital markets at Tier-1 banks including Macquarie Group, Credit Suisse, ANZ, and ABN AMRO Clearing.

My focus has been high-throughput, low-latency payment systems built to global messaging standards — SWIFT MT, ISO 20022, and the ongoing CBPR+ migration that's reshaping cross-border payments globally.

On a call with me you can get help with:

SWIFT messaging — MT vs MX, gpi, CBPR+ migration strategy
ISO 20022 message design and implementation (pacs, camt, pain)
Payment system architecture — STP, exception handling, reconciliation
Kafka-based event-driven payments pipelines
Regulatory and scheme compliance in capital markets payments
Cross-border payments infrastructure design
