What I'm looking for

I’m seeking opportunities in IT infrastructure and market data systems within the technology and financial sectors.

At Deutsche Bank, I support Bloomberg, Refinitiv TREP and FXT, Eikon, and other financial data systems. I monitor and troubleshoot market data infrastructure and maintain feeds, servers, and databases to support real-time data delivery.

At BNP Paribas India Solutions, I directed the IT integration project for the Fortis Investments merger and planned server migrations and network upgrades across seven branches. I also supported infrastructure for Reuters and Bloomberg market data applications.

Earlier, at Hewlett Packard Pvt Ltd, I supported Thomson Reuters EIKON, Bloomberg, and Dealing300, and maintained Linux-based RMDS systems. I’m seeking opportunities in IT infrastructure and market data systems within the technology and financial sectors.
