Chief Information Officer

Alan Varrasso

Growing up on a farm in rural Ohio I never dreamed that I would be on the forefront of leading massive technological transformations across the telecommunications and banking industries over the last 20+ years. I strive to think outside of the box, have a learning mindset and inspire my teams to do the same. As an engineer, I’ve worked across the entire stack and have built my reputation on delivering industry transforming products like text messaging, local number portability, digital ecommerce and online bill presentment and payment platforms, moving monoliths to next generation cloud native solutions for customer information systems, a scaled ATM fleet, and one of world’s largest debit platforms. Aside from leading modernization efforts across all aspects of the Consumer, Business and Core Banking businesses (which includes ~5K branches, 16K+ ATMs and services millions of customers across the U.S.), I’m involved in recruiting efforts and lead a Manager Excellence forum at JPMorgan Chase & Co. to drive recognition and enable leaders to grow and empower their teams.
