Martin Swanson is a founder and seasoned technology leader based in London with over 6 years of entrepreneurial experience and a 25+ year career designing post-trade and securities systems for major banks. He built and led cloud-native, stream-processing platforms (Flink, Kafka, Kubernetes) and drove UBS’s post-trade digital transformation as Head of Innovation and Group CTO for Global Securities Operations. At Atomic Wire he now focuses on enabling financial institutions to extract, interpret and integrate real-time transaction data across industry standards, turning complex legacy flows into composable event-driven services. He combines hands-on engineering—evidenced by front-end contributions to the widely used JavaCC project’s documentation site—with senior program leadership managing multi-million CHF initiatives and cross-division platform rollouts. Colleagues rely on him to bridge business, architecture and delivery, especially for regulatory and settlement modernization efforts. He brings a pragmatic mix of product-orientation, deep domain knowledge and startup grit to solve entrenched financial plumbing problems.
