Summary
Jeffrey Wan is a data and internal tools engineer based in New York with 11 years of experience building production-grade ETL/ELT pipelines, trading tooling, and deployment infrastructure across fintech, e‑commerce, and edtech. He combines a trader’s quantitative instincts from a background in HFT and proprietary trading with hands-on engineering—designing data models for trading capital, ingesting on-chain and exchange data, and automating CI/CD for deployed Docker workloads. At Hinge and Nascent he scaled Airflow/Redshift pipelines, introduced DBT/Great Expectations for data quality, and replaced third‑party ELT with robust home‑grown systems. He’s comfortable across the stack: Python, Kubernetes, Docker, cloud services and building internal BI layers that empower analysts and traders alike. A former professional poker player, he applies game-theoretic reasoning and Bayesian thinking to product requirements and data validation, which often uncovers subtle failure modes before they occur.
