About

What's better than Batman & Robin? It's Design + Technology. I’m passionate about turning ideas into impactful software products by blending architectural design with engineering excellence. At HSBC, I’m building a large-scale distributed Artifact Registry to replace Nexus, shaping the bank’s internal developer ecosystem. Earlier, I contributed to HSBC’s Cloud First Strategy by enabling GCP services, developing apps for PMs to monitor and analyze cloud workloads, and creating a tool to simplify migration of legacy on-prem apps to the cloud. My expertise: designing and engineering scalable, intuitive, and accessible products that empower people. Outside work, I like giving back to the community- https://topmate.io/palakjain
