About

Hello, I’m Huzaifa Naseer

I’m a Software Engineer at Oracle, where I work on building high-performance and reliable distributed systems. I graduated with a B.Tech in Computer Science from NIT Srinagar, and since then I’ve been focused on solving complex problems in systems engineering, optimization, and large-scale infrastructure.

Beyond my work in computer science, I’m deeply passionate about quantitative finance, financial markets, and trading systems. My current journey is to bridge my expertise in C++/Rust performance engineering, distributed systems, and AI/ML with advanced knowledge in quantitative research and algorithmic trading.

I aim to position myself at the intersection of finance and technology, developing the skills to design scalable, low-latency systems for trading and risk management.

My Tech Stack

Generally, I like to call myself a God Stack Developer because I mostly use C, C++, Rust, Typescript in my projects and if you can read in between the lines, yes, I’m obsessed with type-based languages. Moreover, you can say I prefer to be humble and low level when it comes to speaking to computers. You can go through my work in recent years here.
