I bring a strong foundation in distributed systems, backend engineering, and cloud infrastructure — with hands-on experience AWS Java Python.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Software Engineer building cloud-native, low-latency systems for real-time trading. At JP Morgan Chase & Co., I architected a Kafka-, Deephaven-, and gRPC-based pipeline processing up to 250K trades per 10 seconds with sub-100ms latency.
I engineered a horizontally scalable ingestion layer on Rust running in AWS ECS Fargate, normalizing 10+ heterogeneous venue schemas while sustaining 5× traffic spikes without consumer lag buildup. I also optimized stateful position calculations using Deephaven incremental tables (Append → Trade → Position), cutting computation latency by 45% under peak load.
I design reliability and performance end-to-end: a secure, low-latency Java gRPC service with sub-50ms latency and 500 concurrent streams, plus an active-active multi-region architecture delivering 99.99% availability. I further reduced network overhead by 60% by replacing REST/SSE polling with gRPC streaming, and provision distributed infrastructure with Terraform to improve deployment consistency.
Experience
Work history, roles, and key accomplishments
Built automated API health-check cron jobs that cut API failure detection delay by 40%. Developed a frontend dashboard with line/bar charts and time-based filters to display API metrics, helping developers troubleshoot faster and reducing mean time to recovery by 30%.
Software Engineer II
JP Morgan
Re-architected a legacy trade processing platform into scalable, low-latency Kafka-based microservices, decoupling trade capture and reducing end-to-end processing latency by 65%. Replaced Athena workflows with AWS ECS containerized services and AuroraDB-backed microservices, cutting compute cost by 70%, restart times from 30 minutes to under 5 minutes, and wind-up time by 80%.
