Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSean Mcelroy is a seasoned fintech executive with 12+ years building and securing cloud-native banking platforms, currently serving as Chief Risk Officer at Lumin Digital after rising from Chief Security Officer. A co-founder and former CTO/CISO of Alkami, he blends hands-on architecture for large-scale .NET SaaS systems with enterprise risk, compliance (SOC 2, PCI DSS, NIST, FFIEC), and disaster recovery programs. He’s comfortable spanning engineering, DevOps, and InfoSec—designing secure cloud and on-prem solutions while scaling product and security teams. Academically grounded with an MS in Information Security Engineering and a PhD in Cyber Defense in progress, he brings a practitioner’s rigour to executive risk strategy. Not obvious from the title: he built early high-volume payment and SaaS innovations (including patented document management work) that helped drive major product acquisitions and adoption.
