AWS Financial Services Competency

We are very proud to announce that BigCheese has been certified by Amazon Web Services (AWS) as a Financial Services Specialist (AWS Financial Services Competency). This achievement demonstrates our commitment to excellence in the financial sector and reinforces our expertise in the complexities of the specific challenges faced by companies in this sector. And particularly in our region, as we are the first in Uruguay and the fourth in Latin America to obtain it.

In the financial world, organizations face additional challenges in meeting regulatory requirements, ensuring security, data protection and high availability of their services. In addition, it is crucial to understand the regulations imposed by the central banks of each country.

With this certification, the BigCheese team reaffirms its knowledge and experience in the financial sector. And always, without losing our customer-focused approach and our ability to work as a team, we would like to give special thanks to Jose Miguel Rojas Pena, Omar Ashton, Maximiliano Brarda, Lucas Artaza, Renan de Souza ☁️ Souza and all those who have contributed their knowledge to help us achieve this important milestone.

We love working with companies convinced that technology is a fundamental tool in the development of their business. We want to feel like the technology partner of the financial sector that chooses AWS as its take-off platform.
