Summary
Daniel Sonner is a software engineer and co-founder with 11 years of experience building high-performance systems and quant strategies, currently running Tauroi Technologies, a hedge fund focused on uncorrelated returns from unique datasets. He previously spent four years at Pure Storage shipping C++ replication features, improving cross-version test infrastructure in Python, and driving platform reliability—work that includes a patent-pending integration for QoS-aware replication. Comfortable across systems-level C++ and scripting automation, he has a track record of turning prototype R&D into production wins and scaling replication throughput in the field. A Harvey Mudd computer science graduate who started coding in early startups and internships, he blends deep technical implementation skills with product-minded trading engineering. An understated strength is his habit of democratizing complex tooling—running weekly tech talks and accelerating developer workflows to cut test times from hours to minutes.
