Tackled persistent instability in the credit union's online banking platform (Wescom Resources Group). Troubleshot logs, performed testing, and modified configurations, often working directly with the vendor.

Also resolved edge cases around charged-off account display requiring custom code due to non-standard core configuration.
Synergy (JHA) Cleanup & Data Loss Prevention
Justice Federal Credit Union
Reduced organizational risk by compartmentalizing data across the document management system, defining document storage types, and implementing credit union-wide processes.

Symitar (JHA) Role-Based Security Overhaul
Justice Federal Credit Union
Significantly reduced risk exposure in the Symitar core by migrating to role-based security. Years of ad-hoc permission grants, often for one-off projects and never revoked, had left some branch users with privileges to disable key systems.

Online Banking Migration Gone Wrong
ACI Worldwide
Recruited to a team of specialized payment processors tasked with resolving a botched migration for a client financial institution.
