Modernizing the Core: The Visionary Leadership of Sandra Nudelman
Sandra Nudelman is a pioneering enterprise technology executive, data strategist, and entrepreneur with a track record of transforming legacy systems, scaling data platforms, and accelerating digital growth across the world’s leading financial institutions.
Currently, Sandra is the Co-Founder and CEO of RecodeX, an enterprise software company that modernizes legacy systems in weeks, not years. Powered by decades of proprietary IP, RecodeX’s fully automated, deterministic transpilation engine refactors COBOL, Fortran, PL/I, Assembly, and other legacy languages into clean, modern Java, C#, and C++. Delivering 97%+ line-level accuracy with full functional equivalence, the platform operates entirely within client-controlled environments to support mission-critical, regulated infrastructure.
Her deep expertise in legacy modernization stems from enterprise leadership at scale:
- Wells Fargo (Head of Consumer Data & Engagement Platforms): Led a 1,300-person organization across five core functions: data & analytics, marketing channels, CRM, financial health products, and customer experience. Key milestones include scaling the Credit Close-Up platform from zero to 15 million users in under a year, deploying a new CRM system across 30,000 employees in 18 months, generating more than 3x revenue growth in owned marketing channels, launching the bank’s first cloud analytics platform, and driving a 10x increase in machine learning modeling velocity.
- Chase (Inaugural Chief Data & Analytics Officer): Built and directed a global team of over 1,000 professionals, establishing analytical and operational data architectures, institutional data governance, specialized data science teams, and scalable machine learning capabilities.
Across both Wells Fargo and Chase, Sandra oversaw large-scale, COBOL-based customer systems, spearheading modernization programs that enhanced performance, data accessibility, and scalability in highly regulated environments.
Earlier in her career, Sandra founded Judicial Intelligence, an early startup applying machine learning to legal workflows. She began her career in Financial Institutions M&A at Citigroup, followed by six years at McKinsey & Company specializing in retail banking and payments.
