About Vijay

Senior Business Analyst & Digital Transformation Consultant | Banking & FinTech
  • I help banks and financial institutions deliver complex digital transformation initiatives with clarity, speed, and regulatory confidence.
  • With 15+ years of hands‑on experience across Retail, Corporate, and Digital Banking, I specialize in translating business vision into clear, build‑ready requirements—bridging senior stakeholders, technology teams, and vendors to ensure successful delivery.
  • I have led high‑impact programs for Tier‑1 banks across Saudi Arabia, Europe, and Asia, including:
  • Core banking implementations & migrations (Temenos T24)
  • Digital payments, wallets, and real‑time systems (SARIE, SWIFT, ISO 20022)
  • Open Banking & API integrations (SAMA‑aligned)
  • End‑to‑end Agile & Waterfall delivery (BRD, FRD, User Stories, UAT)

What you get when you work with me

  • Clear, structured, decision‑ready documentation
  • Strong stakeholder management at CXO, business, and IT levels
  • Deep understanding of banking regulations & compliance
  • A consultant mindset focused on outcomes—not just documents
My sweet spot:

  • Digital banking & omnichannel platforms
  • Core banking (Temenos T24) implementations & migrations
  • Payments, wallets, and real‑time processing
  • Open Banking APIs & FinTech integrations
  • Business requirements, user stories, UAT & vendor coordination

  • I am CBAP® and PRINCE2® certified, and I thrive in high‑stake environments where precision, ownership, and accountability matter.
