The stack is deeply rooted in banking legacy (SWIFT, C#, .NET, SQL Server, Oracle) while actively adopting cloud infrastructure (Azure Fabric, Kubernetes, Terraform) and data platforms (Dataflow, Apache Airflow) — a pattern consistent with modernizing core banking systems. Hiring velocity is accelerating across engineering and data roles, with acute focus on compliance and risk consolidation.
