Background

About John Ghawi

As a technology leader specializing in infrastructure, DevOps, and innovation, I thrive at the intersection of cutting-edge technology and large-scale enterprise transformation. Currently serving as Director of Infrastructure and DevOps at RBC’s Solution Acceleration and Innovation team, I help drive the adoption of emerging technologies within a highly regulated environment. My expertise lies in navigating complex enterprise landscapes to integrate innovative solutions such as confidential computing, CI/CD automation, and secure identity management. I lead a team responsible for building scalable infrastructure, streamlining deployment pipelines, and ensuring security compliance. I also oversee RBC Launch, a testbed where new digital experiences take shape before reaching millions of customers and RBC Arxis, a confidential computer platform built for partner collaboration. Beyond technical execution, I am passionate about setting direction and pioneering product innovation—particularly in mobile applications. I believe that seamless, secure, and intuitive user experiences drive greater impact than capital investment alone. My goal is to shape the future of mobile banking by balancing security, speed, and innovation to enhance customer engagement and business growth. I am looking to expand my network, engage in thought leadership, and explore new opportunities where I can make a strategic impact. Let’s connect!
