I build low-latency trading infrastructure and product strategy for capital markets.

What I'm looking for

I'm interested in connecting with partners, clients, and peers building capital-markets technology, low-latency trading systems, and FinTech infrastructure.

At KWAY Information Corporation, I lead business development and product strategy for low-latency trading infrastructure, owning a NT$140M annual budget and delivering 130% of target in 2023 and 125% in 2025.

I've built KWAY's DT3-to-DT4 Alpha Builder platform to single-digit-microsecond execution, directed FPGA market-data acceleration, and negotiated exclusive Taiwan distribution rights for Qraft Technologies, Xenon Systems, and Solace. I also represent KWAY with TWSE and TAIFEX on regulatory compliance and closed a record NT$55M single contract.

Over 17 years, I've connected institutional broker requirements with R&D delivery across Taiwan and Greater China, built market-entry teams in Taipei, Shanghai, and Ningbo, and developed exchange connectivity, OMS, market-data, and compliance solutions.
