Senior🎓
Top SchoolMichael Peleshenko is a Lead Specialty Software Engineer (VP) based in New York with 10 years of experience building large-scale, distributed data platforms for market risk and enterprise risk teams. He specializes in backend systems, having architected high-throughput Python ETL microservices, Parquet-based data pipelines, and Java APIs that process and serve hundreds of millions to billions of records daily while minimizing memory spikes. At Nomura he drove Dremio migrations and designed snapshotting and NFS-based locking to enable global horizontal scalability, and he now leads risk data strategy engineering at Wells Fargo. Known for blending deep hands-on coding with pragmatic technical strategy, he consistently improves performance (up to 100x in some migrations) and operational reliability. A dual BS/MS Computer Science graduate with top grades from Stevens Institute of Technology, he pairs strong academic grounding with a track record of cross-regional delivery and vendor collaboration. An under-the-radar strength is his ability to bridge Python data tooling and JVM-based risk engines, enabling efficient polyglot integrations in production.
