summary
One-year report on an OSPO at a Latin American bank: a team of 13 embedded in a developer-experience COE, driving four tracks — migration, contribution, governance and inner‑source culture — and releasing 8 public GitHub projects (notably a Clean Architecture Gradle plugin with ~50 users). Migrations use Oracle→Postgres via schema‑conversion + AWS DMS, move app servers to EKS/Open Liberty, refactor .NET to Java/Elixir, and replace IBM services; automation, a 3‑day migration sprint model, OpenLogic support, CNCF membership, Grafana metrics and a forked tech radar accelerate adoption and show measurable progress.
