Andrés E. Borrelli

Software Architect & Developer

Over forty years in the financial sector, with the last two decades dedicated to digital banking. Expertise in designing high-demand SOA and Microservices architectures, complemented by the development of high-performance frontends based on native web standards.

About me

With over 40 years in the financial sector, my career spans from Mainframe systems to modern Cloud architectures. I design solutions that balance innovation with the robustness and security required by mission-critical systems.

I specialize in Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) and Microservices, focusing on the integration of Legacy cores and Cloud environments (AWS). My development philosophy prioritizes technical efficiency: I use native web standards (Vanilla JavaScript, HTML5, CSS3) to build high-performance interfaces, avoiding framework overhead when agility and low resource consumption are required.

I have also led IT Governance initiatives, designing institutional development methodologies and overseeing compliance control to ensure software lifecycles meet auditing and operational stability standards.

My current objective is to serve as a Consultant or Advisor, helping organizations manage complex technological modernization with the pragmatism of someone who has managed the core systems of major financial institutions.
