Summary
Edafe Onerhime is a Data Architect with 11+ years’ experience designing enterprise data and AI architectures that turn regulatory constraints into competitive advantage for regulated organisations. He combines technical depth in modern data platforms (Azure, Databricks, Snowflake, Fabric) and data mesh operating models with hands-on experience delivering AI governance and compliance for GDPR, the Data Act and sector-specific regimes such as BCBS 239. His background spans senior roles at JPMorgan Chase, the FCDO and Royal London, and he has shaped government-adopted standards and guidance cited in Parliament. Equally comfortable chairing architecture forums or building data products, he focuses on pragmatic standards adoption, embedded data quality and reusable data assets. Currently based in Glasgow, he’s also active in community stewardship and is writing a book on standards for C-suite leaders, reflecting his interest in the policy-to-practice intersection that many architects overlook.
