ABOUT OLUSOLA OLABODE
AWS Certified Solutions Architect with technical roots in software development — Java, Oracle SQL, FIX protocol — and 15+ years delivering complex systems across financial services and energy trading at JP Morgan, Shell, LMAX, and Lehman Brothers. I build AWS-native architectures that solve real domain problems, not just infrastructure for its own sake. Current live projects: GB Energy Market Lakehouse — a full AWS lakehouse ingesting ENTSOG European gas and Elexon BMRS UK power data, modelling the interdependence between Western European gas supply and GB power pricing. Built across 15 documented phases: EventBridge, Lambda, AWS Glue, Athena, Step Functions with validation gates and quarantine, Terraform-provisioned CloudFront delivery. News article ingestion feeds an AI insight pipeline that surfaces correlations between reported events and price movements. Serverless Media Platform — live CloudFront-distributed platform built for a dance company needing low-cost cloud hosting for video and photo content. API Gateway, Lambda, S3 with pre-signed uploads, DynamoDB, CloudFront with OAC. Architected around cost efficiency from day one: pay-per-invocation, lifecycle policies, CDN caching. My domain depth is genuine. I owned post-trade lifecycle data pipelines for OTC derivatives at JP Morgan (Equities, Fixed Income, FX, Credit). I designed and deployed Segregation of Duties and Toxic Access controls at firm-wide scale — authored the conflict matrices, implemented the data connectors, then enforced the controls across 200+ applications. At Shell I delivered post-trade lifecycle integration for Gas, Power, and Crude — collateral margin, daily MTM valuation, MiFID II position reporting, CFTC swap dealer transaction reporting. At GDF/ENGIE I was building grid data integration tools for UK wholesale gas supply in 2004, when the Bacton-Zeebrugge Interconnector was first coming online. Seeking cloud solutions architect, cloud migration, and data platform roles in financial services, energy, and regulated industries.
