Chris Singer is a VP of Engineering based in Chicago with 11 years of experience turning ideas into reliable, low-friction products and leading teams through both greenfield builds and legacy migrations. He has driven large-scale data ingestion and enrichment pipelines—scaling a process from ~80k documents over five years to 10–15 million in weeks—and built configurable web-scraping platforms for global regulatory sources. His background spans payments, treasury systems, and finance automation, where he designed service-oriented architectures to incrementally extract value from monoliths and improve reconciliation and collections. A hands-on leader who started in web development and even taught and founded community networks, he pairs engineering craftsmanship with product sensibility and cross-functional collaboration. Notably, his linguistic and Korean studies inform an unusual blend of technical rigor and global/regulatory awareness that benefits data-driven financial products.
