About Yash Varshney

Backend Software Engineer at Oracle working on high-throughput distributed messaging systems with sub-millisecond latency and 99.9%+ availability requirements.I specialize in low-latency backend systems, concurrency, and fault-tolerant distributed architectures. At Oracle, I work on core execution paths of TxEventQ, building and optimizing enqueue/dequeue systems in C for high-concurrency production workloads, along with cross-instance coordination and failover handling in RAC environments.Beyond my professional work, I have built and managed a $1M+ algorithmic trading infrastructure from scratch including an Order Management System (OMS), real-time Risk Management System (RMS), and multi-broker execution engine with automated retries, token handling, and failure isolation. This system processes hundreds of orders daily with a strong focus on reliability and execution speed.I’m particularly interested in:• Low-latency systems & high-performance computing • Distributed systems & real-time processing • Concurrency, lock-free programming & systems design • Algorithmic trading & market microstructure Previously, I was selected for Google Summer of Code with the Wikimedia Foundation, where I shipped features used by millions of users.I’m always looking to work on challenging backend and systems problems, especially in environments where performance, reliability, and scale truly matter.
