I build high-performance distributed systems and microservices for real-time financial data.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
At FactSet, I build distributed systems and microservices that improve the performance, reliability, and recovery of financial data platforms.
I revamped a critical microservice using asynchronous processing and caching, reducing response time by 98% from 25 seconds to under 500ms. I also developed an LLM-powered application that analyzes job failures and generates resolution steps for engineers.
Across C++, Python, RESTful APIs, Redis, and relational databases, I've improved query efficiency by 90%, reduced validation effort by 70%, and maintained 99.9% uptime by resolving complex memory leaks.
I use observability and AI tooling including Lightstep, Kibana, Claude AI, and GitHub Copilot to triage incidents, improve engineering velocity, and deliver reliable production systems.
