• Design efficient data flow pipelines to support analytics, backtesting, and live market features
• Integrate multiple third-party market data providers through unified interfaces
• Collaborate with DevOps to ensure scalability, observability, and fault tolerance
• Apply UML-based system design as a basis for architectural decisions and implementation
• Identify and resolve performance bottlenecks to ensure consistent API speed and uptime
