I build low-latency C++ trading systems and high-performance database drivers.

At CloudSufi, I contribute to Google’s official open-source BigQuery ODBC driver, improving metadata and gRPC/Apache Arrow data paths to deliver roughly 20% faster large result-set transfers in internal benchmarks.

I’ve led and mentored a team of five while building GDB and Linux perf workflows that cut profiling turnaround by about 40%. Previously at Magnitude Software/Simba, I implemented the TDS wire protocol over raw TCP sockets and shipped ED25519, OAuth 2.0, and MSAL authentication across five commercial cross-platform ODBC drivers.

I started in electronic trading at uTrade Solutions, where I reduced order-book processing latency by 15%, onboarded an exchange through FIX connectivity, and built real-time pre-trade risk checks and market simulation tooling.
