Gabriel Roels

Two years of industry experience writing KDB+ Q;
Three years of professional C++;
Strong understanding of Python and Rust;
and a passion for FinTech.

At Squarepoint Capital I quickly progressed to become the lead developer of the Risk Tech team’s Corporate Action system, where I brought stability to a notoriously unstable, production critical component.

I was relied upon as the Subject Matter Expert on Corporate Actions and worked directly with Management, Investment, Tradeflow Support and Operations to enable initiatives and fix critical issues in a pinch.

At IBM I was an essential part of the runtime development team within a year, within which I led the design and development of a feature critical to the promotion and release of our product: App Connect Enterprise v12.
