About Brian Medeiros

Brian Medeiros is Chief Technology Officer at Rhode Island Foundation. Location: Boston, Massachusetts, United States.

I'm a hands-on technology and cybersecurity executive who has spent my career building secure, compliant IT environments for organizations that can't afford to get it wrong . I've worked with financial services, fintech, and health tech companies where data protection and regulatory scrutiny are non-negotiable. I specialize in being the executive who owns it all. Whether that means setting a 5-year IT roadmap for a board of directors or jumping in and personally configuring a firewall, I'm equally comfortable at both ends of the spectrum. For smaller organizations that means I'm a player-coach who can lead strategy and back up a lean team. For larger ones I bring the operational discipline and executive presence to run enterprise IT and security at scale. What I consistently deliver: Zero audit findings across FFIEC, NCUA, GLBA, and SOC-2 examinations at multiple organizations Operational wins that stick: automated 95% of manual invoice processing with automation, cut new user onboarding time by 80%, and transitioned an entire workforce to remote operations in days when COVID hit because the infrastructure was already ready Major platform overhauls delivered on time: led a $1M to $2M core and digital banking platform replacement over 18 months with minimal service disruption to 30,000 members M&A integration that actually works: managed post-acquisition systems integration across security tools, ServiceNow, Workday, and Coupa while participating in due diligence for additional targets Regulatory credibility: CISSP certified with deep hands-on experience across HIPAA, GDPR, SOX, SEC, FFIEC, and NCUA compliance frameworks I thrive in environments where technology is a competitive advantage, not just a cost center. Lean teams, high-growth companies, and regulated industries where the CIO or VP of Technology needs to be both a strategic partner to the CEO and a credible technical authority.
