Regional banking platform serving Central America with digital and mortgage services
BAC is a 70-year-old regional bank operating across Central America with 20,000+ employees and a hybrid legacy-to-modern tech footprint. The stack spans mainframe (AS/400, Siebel) alongside cloud (AWS, Azure, GCP) and modern data tools (Databricks, Microsoft Fabric), indicating a gradual infrastructure modernization rather than a rip-and-replace overhaul. Active hiring skews toward sales, finance, and marketing roles across five countries, paired with initiatives around mortgage placement, digital product launches (notably the Kash app), and portfolio growth — suggesting a push to scale both lending and customer acquisition in a competitive regional market.
