PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE


MSIM International: The project is web site www.msim.com and uses Vignette Application
Portal Server. It is used by users such as Financial Advisors, Consultant and Individual
Investors. It provides them access to Morgan Stanley product including pricing, performance
and team biographies. The project competitive analysis was done by UK team and overall
business interaction was handled by Chicago team. I was point of contact and lead from
Mumbai team. The entire project implementation was done by Mumbai team. I worked
mainly to setup architecture for business and presentation tier. I worked on few modules
such as performance, biographies which fetched data from database and transformed into
html using xslt. The xml and xsl were passed on to Vignette application logic which rendered
it as part of portal page. I managed developers to complete their assignments. The site has
both public and secure interfaces. The I18N is handled by properties files as well as
information stored in database. The database information was serviced by vendor. The
product footnotes displayed on front end such as disclaimers were also stored in database. I
worked on both I18N and disclaimers. I was part of activity to deploy the site in production

and doing its testing. Due to performance requirements of page to be served in two seconds
the business logic was coded as layer which was migrated from JXB application server to
Vignette as part of performance tuning.
Liquidity Link: enhanced existing portal application to add pagination functionality
implementation in server side java code to list funds.
IFDS: used SSB vendor java api to extract transactions. Developed parsers to load the xml
feeds into database.
FIBod: wrote spring based standalone application to query data from datalink service using
provided utility and applied transformations in code and loaded data to database. The data
are positions and transactions data. The utility fetched data as csv files and transformations
such as aggregation and computing desired values were performed in code.
WWFISecurityBroker: supported existing java broker that consumed securities and issuers
distributed from GSD broker. The application read messages from MQ and extracted
necessary attributes and stored to sybase database and provided acknowledgements to GSD
using MQ. This used legacy ETL tool Data junction which was embedded in the java
application. The java application also loaded data into temporary tables whose schema was
managed dynamically in java code thus making it more self-managed without requiring
additional data maintenance. The application integrated with firm wide alerting system
Netcool and the program was scheduled with firm wide scheduler Autosys. I developed
similar application when fixed income platform was being renovated by buying Latent Zero
product. I build the services which handled security creation and consumed securities
published by GSD. These applications where adapter between the latent zero product and
GSD and managed referential data locally. It also managed all acknowledgements status for
easy troubleshooting.
Client Reporting: used Informatica to load xml data feeds for Risk Analytics into sybase
database. The Blackrock Solutions Aladdin product is used as front office trading and risk
platform for Fixed Income. The back office functions are handled by vendor SSB. BRS was
unable to provide client reports so this piece was managed by Morgan Stanley. This
involved taking analytics data and converting it from hierarchical to de-normalized form.
The sector paths were converted to level ids to help do easy report generation and help them
do breakdowns by various levels for reporting. The data was pushed to vendor using in
house application Data Feeds Platform. The vendor provided Enterprise Service Platform
with data marts using bi-temporal database. This uses concepts of ASOF and ASAT for
storing data so one can query data as of effective date and well as historical data. It used
customized jdbc driver using Squirrel tool for database access. I developed the unix shell
scripts to fetch the downloaded files and prepare them for loading into informatica. I
developed all informatica workflows which uses transformations such as aggregation,
sorting, expressions, joiners, routers, sql. The flows use post processing using stored
procedure to maintain history tables. The data is portfolio, sector and security level data,
benchmark data and holdings data. It involved working with benchmark weights and
composite holding.
