As I pack my bags to visit India and see my parents after 2 years of isolation due to covid-19, I can't help but reminisce about 2021. I want to be grateful for all that the universe had to offer. I'll save the top life highlights for Facebook ;) but here are my top work highlights at OFX:
Delivered two key projects
I started the year as an Engineering Manager looking after two teams. One was the Digital experience team which managed our website and our mobile app. The other is the Enterprise team which built our public APIs. This year, we pushed two major projects to production amongst lots of challenges and hurdles. We transformed our identity platform and onboarded a major enterprise partner - WiseTech. Read more about the partnership here.
It's been incredible to work with an amazing team to get these projects across the line.
The Chappell Foundation's 4th Annual Charity Dinner
As OFX is a corporate sponsor for The Chappell Foundation, I attended the 4th Annual Charity dinner to support tackling of youth homelessness in Australia.
It was a star-studded night! I met and got signatures from the current Australian cricketers - Tim Paine and Josh Hazlewood and ex-cricketers Greg Chappell, Ian Chappell and Trevor Chappell. I also met John Howard; former Australian prime minister. It was incredible to witness the live auctions to raise money and see some very successful and prominent people come together to support a good cause. Over $1 million was raised. ❤️
Thanks, OFX for standing united to end youth homelessness.
