Craig Hughes

Vice President of Architecture at Emirates NBD

I have gained extensive experience as an enterprise architect, solutions architect and development manager over the last 20 years. I believe I'm a logical thinker with a proven track record managing and growing multiple distributed agile development teams in the financial services sector.

I've demonstrated, designed and delivered event-driven architectures; reducing channel driven inquiry traffic loads from core systems. I've implemented blockchain technology (Ripple) for cross-jurisdiction payments and near-time remittance to India (via India’s Unified Payments Interface). I've accomplished the delivery of external API’s to facilitate B2B interaction.
