Thomas Akkari

I’m a full-stack engineer with production experience across financial systems and startup product development. I’ve built and owned real-time services and backend systems where accuracy and reliability directly impact trading and reporting workflows.

At Squarepoint Capital, I built real-time data integration services and backend systems in Python and Java, focused on strict schema validation and zero data loss across production lifecycles. I also developed a commissions, fees, and trade settlement calculation service in Java and Python, and built a trade reporting and monitoring platform consolidating data from 15+ sources with Spark, Kafka, KDB+, and PostgreSQL.

At 88Strat, I owned end-to-end engineering for a web platform and two AR products—covering architecture, implementation, and deployment without oversight. I built an interactive React Native AR application with Unity and Vuforia, a second AR product for native Android with Unity and Vuforia, and delivered supporting web interfaces with Next.js and TypeScript while managing databases and deployments on Vercel and VPS.
