Capstone Investment Advisors

Software Engineer (Intern)
May 2023 – Dec 2023
At Capstone Investment Advisors, I developed a robust distributed data handler using Kafka and Redshift, addressing complex concurrent data logging challenges and ensuring high availability. I collaborated with cross-functional teams to create a web application for portfolio manager track record analysis, significantly improving efficiency and operational workflows. Additionally, I spearheaded the migration of our legacy codebase from Python 2 to Python 3, helping to modernize our infrastructure and reduce technical debt. Throughout these projects, I utilized technologies such as Python, RESTful API, AWS Redshift, PostgreSQL, Git, Plotly-Dash, Apache Airflow, and Tableau.

    HSBC

    Senior Software Engineer
    May 2021 - July 2022
    At HSBC, I developed AutoCrest, a microservice-based automation framework for regression and functional tests, which was integrated into the CI/CD pipeline to enhance software quality and resilience. I also incorporated deep learning model APIs into existing solutions, significantly improving accuracy. Additionally, I created and optimized bash scripts to automate deployments, monitor performance, and manage data backups, boosting deployment efficiency. A key achievement was the development of a containerized multiprocessing module, which drastically reduced the processing time of large PDF documents. Technologies used included Python, REST API, Bash, Jenkins, Docker, Kubernetes, Git, AWS, NLP Models, PyTorch, and Asyncio.

I led a team to upgrade a large production codebase from Python 2 to Python 3, utilizing both manual and automated refactoring tools. Additionally, I enhanced the testing processes for the PRIME trading and risk platform by implementing Unit and Robot tests, significantly reducing the testing time for functional analysts. Technologies employed included Python, Jenkins, AWS S3, EC2, Elasticsearch, Git, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and jQuery.
