Portfolio Projects

Description

The project is to build a web application that can help sales team to create and manage portfolios from funds, ETFs, SMAs etc. to be able to sell the portfolios to potential clients. The app can suggest a better portfolio by comparing the portfolio’s historical risks, returns, stats etc. and help sales personnel with the information needed to present a more appropriate portfolio as per its objective. The tool can also print all the investment materials on the go.

  • My role within the project is to design and build scalable and secure RESTful services to expose portfolios data, architect overall persistence layer to host the data, devise batch data load strategies and interface with architects and ensure the design meets the application’s present and future state.
  • Additional role is to secure the RESTful services. We used Okta for Single Sign on and to secure the services, AWS S3 to store PDFs.

Description

The project was to optimize and enhance a set of batch jobs that were responsible for publishing client account statements on the US and Emerging markets websites.

  • This project was proposed and architected by me – I was able to identify the existing set of batch jobs’ unnecessary and complex design that was resulting in extremely time-taking and error-prone publishing process.
  • Successfully identified areas that were obsolete and designed a simpler workflow.
  • Reduced time that one client statement used to take to be published by 80%.
  • Implemented a monitoring system that sends alerts upon failure. Additionally, the system was built intelligent enough to identify the cause of the failures and send appropriate suggested actions.
