National bank with $35B in assets, expanding across Florida, New York, and Texas
BankUnited is a public bank holding company ($35.0B in consolidated assets) operating as a multi-state regional bank with centers in Florida, the New York metro area, and Dallas. The tech stack reflects a mature financial-services operation—Salesforce for client relationship management, AWS for cloud infrastructure, Redshift for analytics, and nCino for lending workflows—paired with compliance and risk tooling (SIEM, DLP, EDL). Active replacement of Oracle and Informatica suggests modernization of data pipelines. Hiring is concentrated in finance and operations roles (71 of 123 open positions) with mid-level and senior professionals, signaling focus on regulatory execution and process scaling rather than engineering innovation.
