About Brad Sawyer

Technical Solutions Consultant | Emerging Solution Architect

I design technical solutions for enterprise clients, with 20+ years of experience across financial services, banking, public sector, and insurance. My background spans from software development and systems integration through business analysis to solution engineering, providing deep expertise in translating complex business requirements into implementable technology strategies.

What I Do

Currently as Senior Solution Consultant at FrankieOne, I design unified onboarding and fraud management solutions for global enterprise clients. This role builds on extensive experience architecting solutions across loan origination systems, CRM platforms, integration frameworks, lodgement systems, and workflow automation throughout my career at major financial institutions, public sector organizations, and technology vendors.

My Approach

Domain-Driven Solution Design: My deep experience across banking operations, insurance processes, public sector workflows, and fintech platforms enables me to understand not just technical requirements, but the underlying business context that drives successful implementations.

End-to-End Implementation Perspective: Having worked across the full spectrum from software development through business analysis to solution engineering, I design solutions with clear understanding of implementation realities, integration challenges, and operational requirements.

Proven Technical Consulting: Two decades of technical consulting across diverse environments - from NAB's core banking platforms and ANZ's broker systems to WorkSafe Victoria's digital transformation and Salesforce's enterprise implementations - provides tested methodologies for complex solution design.
