Michael Chen

Lead Financial Systems Architect

With 15 years in quantitative finance and software development, Michael bridges the gap between complex financial theory and practical application. His background spans investment banking at major Australian institutions and fintech startups.

Risk Analytics Algorithm Design Market Data Python/R

Michael's journey began in 2010 at Macquarie Bank, where he developed proprietary trading algorithms for the equity derivatives desk. After completing his PhD in Financial Mathematics at UNSW, he joined a boutique hedge fund focusing on statistical arbitrage strategies.

In 2018, he co-founded a fintech startup that was acquired by a major Australian bank. This experience taught him the importance of making sophisticated financial tools accessible to everyday investors and professionals.

Sarah Rodriguez

Head of Product Strategy

Sarah's unique perspective comes from 12 years as a financial advisor before transitioning to product management. She understands exactly what Australian investors need because she's worked with thousands of them directly.

User Experience Financial Planning Product Design Client Relations

Starting her career at a boutique financial planning firm in Brisbane, Sarah quickly realized that most financial tools were built by technologists who had never actually worked with clients. This insight drove her to transition into product management in 2020.

Her approach is refreshingly practical – every feature we build has to pass the "would I recommend this to my own clients?" test. She spent three years at a major Australian wealth management firm before joining equarionthira to help shape our product vision.

Key Achievements:

Managed portfolios worth M+ across diverse client base
Led product launches that increased user engagement by 240%
Certified Financial Planner (CFP) and Product Management certified
Keynote speaker at Australian Financial Planning Association events

David Kim

Chief Technology Officer

System Architecture Cloud Security API Development DevOps

David cut his teeth in the high-frequency trading world at a major investment bank, where microseconds matter and system failures can cost millions. This experience instilled in him an obsession with reliability and performance that drives everything we build at equarionthira.

After leading engineering teams at three different fintech companies, he joined equarionthira in early 2024 to oversee our technical infrastructure. His philosophy is simple: build systems that financial professionals can trust with their most important decisions.
