Regional bank modernizing core systems and wealth management capabilities
Old National is a 1,000+ person regional bank with dual headquarters in Chicago and Evansville, operating across retail, commercial, and wealth management. The stack reveals a hybrid legacy-to-cloud transition: AS/400 and SAS anchor core operations while AWS and Microsoft 365 are actively expanding, paired with modern data tools (Python, Informatica, Power BI, Alterica) suggesting an ongoing data modernization push. Finance-heavy hiring (405 roles) paired with active projects around wealth adoption, risk frameworks, and data warehouse construction indicate a push to build competitive advantages in client relationships and operational resilience rather than wholesale platform replacement.
Notable leadership hires: Total Rewards Director, Tax Director, Wealth Advisory Director, Commercial Support Lead
Old National Bank is a publicly traded regional bank founded in 1834, serving entrepreneurs, families, business owners, and retirees across the Midwest and beyond. The bank operates through dual headquarters in Chicago and Evansville, with service lines spanning retail banking, commercial banking, wealth management, and investments. The organization maintains 1,001–5,000 employees and is managing concurrent initiatives around modernized data infrastructure, unified risk controls, and wealth advisory scaling—a posture consistent with regional banks seeking to compete on service depth and operational sophistication rather than technology-first positioning.
Old National uses legacy systems (AS/400, SAS, SQL) alongside modern cloud platforms (AWS, Azure), business intelligence (Power BI, Alteryx), identity and security (Microsoft 365, Intune, DLP), workflow automation (UiPath), and banking infrastructure (Swift, FedNow, NMLS). Currently adopting AWS and Intune at scale.
Old National has 720 active roles with modest engineering (15) and data (27) headcount. Finance dominates hiring (405), followed by sales (93) and security (51), reflecting operational needs over technology headcount expansion.
Active priorities include wealth management adoption (WealthView), unified risk control frameworks, data warehouse modernization (consumption layer), data protection strategy, insider threat programs, and compliance-driven initiatives like credit policy communication and succession planning.
