# Jaswant Golla > Software Engineer | Operations Technology Location: New York City Metropolitan Area, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/jaswant Software Engineer with 5 years of experience designing and developing scalable, high-performance backend systems across hedge fund and healthcare domains. Proficient in Java, Python, Spring Boot, Kafka, and SQL, with strong foundations in data structures, algorithms, and distributed systems. Skilled in building RESTful APIs, event-driven architectures, and CI/CD pipelines to support real-time, mission-critical workflows. I focus on writing clean, maintainable code and optimizing system performance, leveraging Agile, Scrum, and Test-Driven Development (TDD) to deliver robust, reliable solutions at scale ## Work Experience ### Engineer @ Walleye Capital Jan 2025 – Present | New York, New York, United States At Walleye Capital, I worked as a backend Software Engineer on post-trade and EOD reporting systems supporting trading and portfolio operations. I helped migrate legacy Groovy workflows to a modular Java-based framework, improving system reliability and enabling easier extension of trade processing logic. I developed and maintained trade file and external trade ingestion pipelines that handled large-scale financial data from prime brokers and third-party strategy providers, with a strong focus on correctness and reconciliation. I collaborated closely with Middle Office and operations to investigate data discrepancies, resolve production issues, and consistently deliver break-free reporting for trading activity. ### Software Engineer @ IT Ridge Technologies Jan 2023 – Jan 2024 | United States I worked as a Software Engineer at IT Ridge Technologies, where I designed and developed core backend services using Java and Spring Boot for a high-volume e-commerce platform. My work focused on building RESTful APIs to support product management, inventory and stock tracking, and end-to-end order processing workflows, with a strong emphasis on data consistency across downstream systems. I introduced Apache Kafka–based asynchronous messaging to handle order status changes and email notifications, improving system decoupling and enabling near-real-time customer communication. I also owned the setup and enhancement of a Jenkins-driven CI/CD pipeline, automating build, test, and deployment processes and significantly reducing manual release effort. I worked within an Agile (SCRUM) environment, collaborating closely with cross-functional teams through sprint planning, code reviews, and design discussions to deliver reliable, high-quality backend features on schedule. ### Software Engineer @ HealthEdge Jan 2020 – Jan 2022 | Bengaluru, Karnataka, India I worked as a Software Engineer at HealthEdge, where I contributed to backend development for large-scale healthcare claims processing systems. I led the development of an alternative claims processing service for BCBS, improving end-to-end claim throughput and increasing processing efficiency by approximately 22% under production workloads. I played a key role in a defect burn-down initiative, reducing critical bugs in the backlog by over 75% and significantly improving platform stability across multiple releases. I modernized legacy services by upgrading Oracle WebLogic from 12c to 14c and migrating SOAP services from JAX-RPC to JAX-WS, which reduced request latency by more than 15% and improved service reliability. I also refactored legacy codebases to improve modularity, testability, and maintainability, achieving over 90% unit and integration test coverage using JUnit and Mockito. In addition, I automated build, test, and deployment workflows using Jenkins and Groovy to minimize manual release errors and improve deployment consistency. ## Education ### Master of Science - MS in Computer Science Stevens Institute of Technology ### Bachelor of Engineering - BE in Information Science and Engineering Visvesvaraya Technological University ## Contact & Social - LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/jaswantgolla --- Source: https://flows.cv/jaswant JSON Resume: https://flows.cv/jaswant/resume.json Last updated: 2026-04-13
