Gaurav Tiwari is an engineering leader with 18+ years of experience building mission-critical trading, data and cloud-native systems, now leading engineering at Millennium in New York. He has a proven track record at firms like BlackRock and Schonfeld delivering high-availability distributed data platforms, transforming a hackathon prototype into a multi-million dollar ARR product and driving uptime to 99.99%. Skilled across SRE, DevOps, product engineering and AI operations, he specializes in cloud-native architectures, IaC, CI/CD, and cost-optimizing reliability engineering. Gaurav combines hands-on technical execution—re-architecting API gateways, distributed ingestion pipelines and schema automation—with strategic product partnerships and hiring/interview design. His background in finance (CFA, FRM) and deep experience in trading systems means he speaks both engineering and business languages fluently. Notably, he has repeatedly turned small teams and prototypes into production-grade, revenue-generating platforms while reducing operational toil.
