Piyush Jain — CEO
As a Senior Software Engineer and Vice President at Goldman Sachs, I lead the development of high-performance electronic trading systems that span multiple asset classes. With a strong focus on scalable, low-latency backend architectures, I've designed and built systems from the ground up using Java, Kafka, REST, and multithreading. Over the years, I’ve consistently delivered solutions that drive performance and reliability — including reducing latency by up to 60% for critical trading applications, optimizing data pipelines using Protobuf, and re-architecting core frameworks for greater stability and throughput. I also drive collaboration across global teams and business stakeholders, ensuring that technical solutions align with strategic trading objectives. Outside my core role, I’ve contributed to open-source through Google Summer of Code and have published research on network embeddings at CODS-COMAD. With a B.Tech in Computer Science from IIT Guwahati and a track record of excellence in coding competitions and hackathons, I bring a deep foundation in algorithms, systems programming, and distributed computing.
