Kuruvilla brings more than two decades of experience leading large-scale technology organizations and driving transformation across global enterprises. Most recently, he served as chief technology officer at ACI Worldwide, where he led the delivery and evolution of mission‑critical payments solutions used by organizations around the world.

“We’re building a leadership team with global experience and a deep understanding of the competitive pressures financial institutions face every day,” said Nancy Langer, president and CEO of CSI. “Our job is simple: ensuring our customers have the solutions they need to compete and grow. Abe has spent his career doing exactly that at enterprise scale, which makes him an exceptional fit to lead CSI’s evolving technology strategy.”

Before ACI, Kuruvilla was chief information officer at CoreLogic, where he led a multiyear cloud migration and platform modernization and oversaw AI-enabled products that earned him the 2021 HousingWire “Tech Trendsetter Award.” He previously served as divisional CIO at Dell Financial Services, where he led organizational transformation, building the company’s IT strategy and developing its multiyear technology roadmap.

“Financial institutions of all sizes need solutions that are reliable, secure and designed to work together—not systems that add complexity,” Kuruvilla said. “CSI has a strong reputation as a trusted partner that enables banks and credit unions to harness their unique positions within their communities. I’m excited to bring my experience in AI and platform modernization to help CSI institutions drive growth and deepen engagement with their account holders.”

Kuruvilla’s appointment follows CSI’s acquisition of Apiture, an award-winning digital banking solutions provider, and the company’s strategic reorganization designed to enhance its integrated platform now spanning deposits, lending, digital banking and customer engagement.
