Capabilities

The systems and tools behind the delivery.

Tools vary from team to team, and I adapt to new software quickly. However, to give you a clear sense of my day-to-day stack, these are the platforms I rely on to keep things moving.

Configuration & data fluency

Lending configuration & technical reading

I can read and work with structured data and configuration files directly, which means fewer lost-in-translation moments between business rules and engineering.

  • XML & JSON
  • Configuring complex lending products
  • Underwriting rules in XML

Domain grounding

Where the technical knowledge comes from

Alongside the delivery experience, I've deliberately built formal knowledge in the areas that regulated financial products live or die on. Here's what each one actually gives you on a project.

Microsoft

Business Analyst Professional Certificate

Microsoft

Formal grounding in requirements elicitation, process modelling and data-led analysis (including AI-related modules), so I can apply the discipline behind clean traceability while using AI tools responsibly to speed up research, drafting and documentation.

Dublin Business School

Fund Accounting qualification

Dublin Business School

I can read the financial mechanics underneath a product (NAV, valuations, reconciliations and ledger movement), so financial logic and reporting requirements get specified correctly the first time.

The Institute of Banking

Qualified Financial Adviser (QFA)

The Institute of Banking

Completed full professional training for the Irish QFA designation, recognised by University College Dublin and equivalent to UK CeMAP and DipPFS standards, mastering the core mechanics of mortgages, pensions and investments.
