I developed a library that aimed to streamline the existing risk pricing process by executing pre-existing risk model functions. These functions were responsible for calculating financial risk associated with credit swap securities. The primary objective of the library was to facilitate a firm-wide technology migration from a third-party middleware platform to an in-house solution. This transition allowed the utilization of the firm's proprietary infrastructure, providing greater control and efficiency.Additionally, I created a batching utility as part of the project. This utility enabled users to customize how jobs were submitted to the CPU farm based on user-defined criteria, such as security type. By allowing flexible job submission, the utility enhanced the overall efficiency and effectiveness of the risk pricing process.In terms of architecture, the solution incorporated a tabular data set structure. This structure resembled a spreadsheet-like format, where queried data was stored, manipulated, and joined with other data sets.
