I value three things in software: cleanliness, usability, and speed. Everything else is integration details and getting things done.

Platform Engineer @ I started in the Back & Middle Office development group automating trade clearing and instrument data imports as well as improving internal web services. I worked with systems for Equities, Futures, and Treasuries trading using Bash, Java, and SQL on Linux servers. In September 2015, I joined the Teza Capital Management development group building out the Python platform for quantitative portfolio research and trading. From August 2014 to Present (1 year 5 months) Software Developer @ I worked on several C# .NET Windows Forms desktop clients built on top of Broadway's "TOC" object messaging and persistence layer written in C++ and SQL. I built out the Dealer version of Broadway Trader, which allowed sell-side traders to view and manage prices, orders, and automatically or manually respond to trade inquiries in Fixed Income, Interest Rate Swap, and FX instruments. I also worked on the Middle Office client's business rule engine editing interface and customer-configurable extensible object editors which allowed supporting new business objects with no code changes necessary. From January 2011 to August 2014 (3 years 8 months) Software Development Intern @ I first investigated potential issues for multi-threading the existing C++ modem OS onto a multi-processor chip. Then I worked with another intern on a Python build script to optimize memory usage in the ELF binaries of the OS - end result was a 20% savings in chip memory requirements. From June 2010 to August 2010 (3 months) Greater San Diego AreaSoftware Development Intern (x4) @ My first summer I worked on continuous integration build, test, and report automation. In the winter I came back for a quick upgrade to a graphics library component. The next summer I on JavaScript, ArcGIS, AGI C# SDK, and WPF clients for a product launch demo. The last winter I wrote some modules for a C# to Java source code converter. From June 2008 to January 2010 (1 year 8 months)
