Editorial Bio

James is Head of Engineering at Quire. He has spent twelve years building software in financial services, with the last four focused on security architecture for fintech products. He writes about the technical side of client data security — how magic link authentication works, what the FTC Safeguards Rule actually requires at a technical level, and why email is structurally inadequate for financial document collection. He translates compliance requirements into plain language for practitioners who need to understand them without a law degree.
