Singapore – Synpulse, a global consultancy serving the financial services industry, has appointed seasoned technology leader Jieke Pan as its new chief technology officer (CTO), strengthening its commitment to innovation and digital transformation.
Pan brings over 20 years of experience in digital transformation, product development, and engineering leadership. He is known for building collaborative, high-performing engineering cultures within the financial sector.
Over the past decade, he has served as CTO for Hexaware’s digital and software division across EMEA and APAC and has advised major clients in banking, insurance, and financial services in roles such as CTO Advisor and Enterprise Architect.
At Synpulse, Pan will lead the global engineering team at Synpulse8, overseeing the firm’s technology offerings. His focus will be on advancing PULSE8, Synpulse8’s orchestration platform, into a scalable solution for the financial industry.

Since then, Synpulse8 has delivered solutions such as the Wealth Cockpit for a bank in Thailand, the OpenWealth API Standard for LGT, and a reinsurance underwriting workbench for MS Reinsurance. The unit focuses on building digital tools for the financial services sector.
