I completed my bachelors in 2018 from IIIT Allahabad. I interned for six months at Morgan Stanley, after which I joined the company full-time. I became part of the Data Reporting team, where we developed ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) workflows to generate end-of-day (EOD) packs and position summary reports for the controllers. My primary responsibilities involved backend development using Java with Spring and Hibernate. For the UI, we worked with a .NET-based desktop client. One of the notable proofs of concept (POC) I contributed to was creating a web-based version of the desktop client using Angular.

I have been with Goldman Sachs for the past four years, currently working with the Resource Compression team. Our goal is to reduce capital optimization requirements for the firm by collaborating with third-party vendor solutions and quantitative strategists. We source trade data from hundreds of trading books and prepare it for submission. We also run risk analysis for the proposed bookings and present them to traders for approval before booking. We have two workflows one is fully automated which use Kafka streams for daily trades compression in coordination with the clearing house. Another is a manual step where we feed the spreadsheet to book. We source data from both data lake (warehouse solution) and a NoSQL securities database.
