Bank of America's Strategic Asset Liability Management Technology organization, including financial applications for executive users and internal stakeholders.

The problem

The documented work covered a Broker Dealer Liquidity Forecasting foundation that expanded into Comet, and modernization across Microsoft and RHEL-based technology stacks.

Arthur’s role

Senior Consultant / Technology Lead via Ettain Group, September 2017 - July 2018; then Bank of America Vice President, Application Development Team Lead / Application Manager, July 2018 - October 2021.

Diagnosis & decision

Illustrative leadership reasoning: change controls should be evaluated against the risk they manage.

Architecture & operating approach

Built C#/SQL Server foundations and a cross-product data model, implemented Kafka streaming, and later provided technical leadership for Comet and modernization toward RHEL, Java, Angular, and Kafka.

Outcome

Documented work includes application and team leadership, Comet technical architecture, and platform-modernization responsibilities. The available résumé is not an independent audit of transaction volumes, delivery speed, or financial results.

Executive lesson

Leadership lesson: retain controls that manage real risk and make their purpose visible; do not confuse process volume with risk reduction.
