About This Project

At MIP/Sanlam, I worked on three major enterprise platforms handling critical financial operations:

**Platforms:** - **Group Life** - Enterprise group insurance platform for corporate clients - **Pensions** - Retirement fund management and administration system - **Annuities** - Complex financial instruments with 100% accuracy requirements

**Evolution Team:** Selected for the specialized "Evolution" agile team tasked with modernizing legacy desktop GUI platforms into modern web interfaces. Worked directly with enterprise architects and business stakeholders to ensure feature parity during migration.

**Key Achievements:** - Engineered critical backend logic for financial instruments - Maintained 100% accuracy for annuity payouts and fund values - Collaborated with actuaries to translate complex requirements into code

**Enterprise Environment:** - Operated within SAFe (Scaled Agile Framework) - PI Planning and two-week sprints - Strict version control and code quality standards - Regulated financial environment compliance
