# Dhruv R. > Senior Software Engineer (Data Platforms and Architecture) at Arrowstreet Capital Location: San Francisco Bay Area, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/dhruvr I’m a senior software engineer focused on backend systems, platform infrastructure, and large-scale data systems. I’ve worked extensively with AWS, distributed data pipelines, streaming and batch processing, and performance-focused engineering. I enjoy solving hard technical problems, whether that means optimizing multi-terabyte data workflows, improving observability and data quality, or building tools that make systems faster, more resilient, and easier for teams to use. What motivates me most is combining deep technical execution with practical business impact. I like owning problems end-to-end, thinking carefully about system design, and building solutions that are both durable and useful in practice. I’m most energized by work that improves the reliability, scalability, and effectiveness of the systems other teams depend on. Outside of work, I’m into a variety of sports, investing, gardening, and hands-on side projects that keep me learning. ## Work Experience ### Senior Associate, Software Engineer - Data Platforms and Architecture @ Arrowstreet Capital, Limited Partnership Jan 2024 – Present ### Associate, Software Engineer - Data Platforms and Architecture @ Arrowstreet Capital, Limited Partnership Jan 2021 – Jan 2024 | Boston, Massachusetts, United States ### Quantitative Developer Intern @ Ellington Management Group Jan 2020 – Jan 2020 o Created modal with live information/logs about workflows run o Worked with the Accounting team to re-implement webpages that use more up to date libraries and technologies in SQL, C# and Javascript o Helped work on a wrapper class for C# tasks o Created a mock scheduler for workflows, and a C# emailer that sends the workflows that did not run on schedule o Created a error report system for workflows o Worked on the backend(SQL/C#)/frontend(Javascript.HTML, CSS) on different webpages to better present data to end users. o Worked on implementing different utility functions to expand in-house libraries o Helped create way to run workflows through SQL store procedures ### Research Analyst Co-op @ Ellington Management Group Jan 2019 – Jan 2019 o Worked on the Data Load Team which created efficient workflows that quickly gathered data from new data streams to support traders and researchers with day to day operations o Created the data architecture that properly created, and updated database tables and stored procedures for financial data on MS SQL Server o Used Python libraries such as Requests and Selenium to create web scrapers, parsers, and downloaders to grab data for the ETL process o Developed and enhanced an Extract-Transform-Load framework with Python 2 and Python 3 and MS SQL that is used in dozens of critical/high impact automation tasks that directly supported business users; in some cases, automated multi day processes to take less than an hour o Developed websites for users to visualize data using Javascript, HTML, CSS o Created regression tests to ensure consistency across production environments in SQL and Python ### Software Quality Assurance Intern @ IPC Systems, Inc.
