Our Consultants

Mike Liang is the Principal Consultant and Founder of MM Global Solutions Consulting (MMGSC). More than 20 years’ experience with almost all aspects of the self-service technology industry has offered Mike a lot of insights into the needs and challenges facing both financial institutions and their corresponding technology vendors. After realizing pockets of unfulfilled needs in the industry, he established his own company offering independent consulting. Since then, Mike has worked closely with several Tier 1 FIs and independent ATM deployers globally to help optimize the customer experience, reduce operational costs, and accelerate innovation.

Prior to becoming an independent consultant, Mike held strategic positions with the major players in the ATM technology industry. Mike was the Solutions Architect and Development Manager at Wincor Nixdorf (now part of Diebold Nixdorf). In this role, Mike oversaw all major professional service projects, such as Multivendor ATM software, Deposit Automation, Video Banking, Deposit Consolidation and Aggregation, Mobile Pre-Staged ATM Withdrawal at some of the largest financial institutions in North America, including BB&T (now Truist), SECU, HSBC NA, BBVA, Everi, Synovus Bank, J.P. Morgan Chase, Wells Fargo, PNC, and Capital One.

Mike was also the main architect, who initiated and designed the successful Diebold Nixdorf ProFlex4 solution. Today, the ProFlex4 solution is used by most of Diebold Nixdorf’s customers worldwide.

Earlier in his career, Mike was a Professional Service Consultant at NCR Canada, working with all major Canadian financial institutions using NCR Activate solutions. Mike started his career at Phoenix Interactive Design (now part of Diebold Nixdorf). He was instrumental to the VistaATM solutions used at Tier1 FIs in Canada, US, UK, Australia, and New Zealand.
