Scala Developer, Leonteq Zurich
Jan 2019 — Dec 2021
Responsibilities:Developing new and supporting existing Financial
Structured Products.
Main achievements in the company:
- I have refactored our main configuration system named "A".
Originally we had badly designed WebUI to manage configs and
usually had prod issues related to inaccurate configs merges, absence
of an audit, etc. Immediately after facing problems with it, I Russian recommended my direct manager to have a git as a source of data for our configuration system and for 3 days prepared a POC to demonstrate the benefits of having a git instead of WebUI. My POC was accepted by our developers and management and I refactored “A” which significantly speed up the development of new configs. Without my work, it would be not possible to deliver very important features in time for our partners so I brought significant value to a company. - Second refactor we had this "A" system as an independent service, and we had kinda hundreds of remote calls to this service just to do one pricing. To reduce the load on the system I advised using "A" as a library instead of service and feeding all services with recent configs data each time when the configuration is changed using Rabbit MQ. This refactoring speed up pricing time up to 7 times which is critically important for the company since the pricing speed is almost proportional to the company's income.
- In our company we are developing a new framework named "Q" to set up the main company's product: financial "Structured Products" and I was given a kinda simple task of adding a new feature to this framework named "Schedule Overrides". After analyzing requirements and existing source code I prepared a list of necessary refactoring to be able to implement a given feature and improve the maintainability of a given framework. The main problem with the framework we had - it was deeply coupled with a lot of services and had tons of magic crutches just to make the framework work. So I built a new independent module to support all necessary features of Q and integrated it into our systems. And based on my framework all of our team - 6 developers were able to implement a new Structured product mainly just by changing "Q" product configs and without any Scala development. The cost of developing of new "Structured Product" using Q framework was reduced from a few months to a few weeks and later it should be even faster.
- During my coding work many legacy java codes were rewritten to Scala and covered by tests
- My hard work in the company was well appreciated by my manager and I was promoted by relocation to Zurich with a significant salary increase and good bonus and nominated for the “Director” title
