Off?chain orchestration, ledgering, and reconciliation
Wallet and custody integration
Mint, burn, redemption, and settlement flows
Define integration patterns between blockchain platforms and:
Core banking and general ledger systems
Payments rails (ACH, Fedwire, RTP, internal book transfer)
Liquidity management and treasury systems
Guide architectural decisions across public, permissioned, and hybrid blockchain models.
Crypto / Stablecoin Technology Stack
Provide architectural leadership across the full digital asset stack, including:
Blockchain networks (e.g., EVM?based public or permissioned networks, Layer?2s)
Token standards and permissioning models (e.g., ERC?20, permissioned tokens)
Smart contract controls (upgradeability, pause/list, role?based access)
Middleware for transaction monitoring, indexing, and off?chain synchronization
API and event?driven integration patterns
Cloud?native platforms (Azure/AWS), containerization, and secure key management
Security, Risk, and Compliance
Embed bank?grade security controls into all digital asset architectures, including:
Private key lifecycle management and HSM integration
Segregation of duties, dual control, and transaction signing policies
Wallet tiering strategies (hot/warm/cold)
Resilience, failover, and incident response for on?chain and off?chain components
Ensure architectures align with U.S. banking regulatory expectations, including:
BSA/AML and OFAC sanctions enforcement
Travel Rule compliance
NYDFS cybersecurity requirements
Operational resilience, auditability, and examiner transparency
Partner closely with Risk, Compliance, Legal, and Audit teams to support approvals and examinations.
Strategic Advisory & Collaboration
Serve as a trusted advisor to senior technology and business leaders on digital asset strategy.
Evaluate vendors, custodians, analytics providers, and blockchain platforms through an enterprise and risk lens.
