Twenty-six years architecting banking transformation. Now building production agentic AI systems with my own hands.
Lead Solution Architect with 26 years in banking technology across Europe and Asia. My domain is regulated finance: KYC/AML, customer due diligence, corporate and private lending, credit origination and risk, digital onboarding, client lifecycle management. My platforms are PEGA, where I founded Swedbank's Centre of Excellence, and Appian, where I currently architect Länsförsäkringar Bank's lending transformation.
What makes this profile uncommon in 2026: I have independently designed, deployed, and operate a production multi-agent AI system running 24/7 on self-managed infrastructure. Not an experiment. Not a weekend project. Working production code that I wrote, secured, and run every day. Banks and consultancies are hiring for AI transformation leadership and most senior architects can only talk about it. I build it.
Designed, built, and operated solo since 2025. A five-agent multi-tier system running 24/7 on self-managed infrastructure, with a hardened Telegram gateway, cross-provider LLM fallback, and an autonomous closed-loop upgrade pipeline that completed its first live production upgrade in May 2026. The architecture banks need for vendor-independent agentic AI adoption.
Eighteen layers of control - token isolation, signed-message verification, replay defence, rate limits, and an audit trail. The same hardening pattern bank procurement committees ask architects to apply to third-party chat channels.

Same component-level proof-of-build anchoring under PSD3 and AI Act Annex III.
