Alexandru Tentes
C++ software engineer, low-latency market data
about
C++ engineer with nearly four years of experience on production market data systems, including FIX feed handlers, order book components, and venue integrations. I've contributed to a platform spanning more than 60 venues, taking integrations end to end from design through certification and rollout, and partnering with trading desks on time-critical features.
I enjoy the work that often goes unnoticed: failover logic, sequence number recovery, and the edge cases that only show up under load. Outside that, I write small C++ and Python tools, tinker with game engine components, and read about market microstructure.
