In his new role as CTO, Ahmad will lead Avallone’s overall technology strategy and architecture, align engineering with product and market objectives, and drive the delivery of secure, scalable, and compliant KYC technology for multinational corporations and funds.
“This role means a lot to me because of the people I work with every day, and the mission we share,” said Ahmad Nazir Raja. “We have a thoughtful, product-minded engineering team, and I want to help us build solutions that make KYC a breeze for our customers. My focus is simple: show up consistently, create clarity, invest in the things that compound, and create an environment where the team can do the best work of their careers. If we get that right, the rest will follow."
