• Experience making complex technical products easier for clients and internal teams to adopt through improved onboarding, abstractions, developer tooling, or operational simplification is desirable.
• Hands-on experience with real-time data distribution, messaging middleware, event-driven architectures, ticker plants, market data platforms, or low-latency systems is desirable.
• Experience with AWS, Azure, or GCP and an understanding of how cloud infrastructure, AI-enabled workflows, or agent-based architectures are changing enterprise data consumption is desirable.
