• Built BSE–NSE exchange failover system per SEBI mandate (circular 2024/167), enabling 350+ BSE-exclusive Future and Options contracts to trade on NSE during outages, safeguarding 2M+ daily retail transactions across Groww, Upstox, and Zerodha. • Developed Spring Batch pipeline processing 12K+ records, reducing setup time from 4 hours to 28 minutes with zero errors, and improved reliability through comprehensive unit test coverage using JUnit 5. • Engineered single-command contingency activation utility with maker-checker governance, propagating outage signals via REST APIs to CWS (internal order management) and TWS (external broker feeds such as Groww and Upstox), reducing failover time from ∼45 minutes to under 4 minutes. • Reduced operational effort by 90% through end-to-end automation of contract lifecycle, saving 160+ operator-hours/month. • Engineered secure SFTP pipeline for contract & price files using AES-256 encryption, achieving 100% SEBI regulatory compliance (SEBI/HO/MRD/TPD/P/CIR/2024/167). • Automated SEBI-mandated EOD settlement pipeline with secure SFTP transfer (AES-256), ensuring 100% compliance with zero missed transfers.
