Director, Security & Privacy Engineering

Banking is being reimagined—customers expect every interaction to be easy, personal, and instant .

We are building a universal banking assistant that millions of U.S. consumers can use to transact across all financial institutions and, over time, autonomously drive their financial goals . Powered by our proprietary BankGPT platform , this assistant is positioned to displace age-old legacy systems within financial institutions and own the end-to-end CX stack , unlocking a $200B opportunity and potentially replacing multiple publicly traded companies .

Ultimately, our mission is to drive financial well-being for millions of consumers.

With over two-thirds of Americans living paycheck to paycheck, 50% holding less than $500 in savings, and only 17% financially literate, we aim to put financial well-being on autopilot to help solve this problem.
