Thind Named Global Chief Architect at State Street

Aman Thind has been appointed global chief architect at State Street. He will be responsible for designing the strategy and driving implementation of the bank’s technology transformation and interoperable infrastructure.

Thind, who will report to Brian Franz, global chief  information officer, will also play an integral role in advancing the company’s technology innovation including further building capabilities in digital, crypto, and other digitally-led technologies, State Street adds.
