Hi, so I am a full stack engineer at a high frequency trading firm at India (2025 grad). I had a few interviews in pipeline, including citadel securities, and a few YC startups.. but I was confused about the viability of those.

to be honest, I am quite interested in building infrastructure for AI related workflows. It requires quite in depth knowledge of latency management and scalability.. and I love building infrastructure and softwares from ground up.

However, looking a bit closer at them, a lot of these yc startups are betting that claude and open ai won't come up with harnesses that will ruin their moat.

however the compensation is attractive enough for me to not ignore them completely.

Has anyone made a successful switch from HFT's to YC? How was their experience with the team.

Hi there! I am currently a graduate from India, and was curious if I really could admission in ETH Zurich for Masters in CS. I think my CGPA might cause a bit of a hurdle and would love opinions if my overall profile can cover for it.

I will have 2 years of work experience at a high frequency trading firm as a software engineer.

I can attain 3 LOR's, one from each professor under which I did a research study.

However my CGPA in undergrad was 8.08, which was on the lower end.

I am aiming for a 330+ on my GRE, but will the CGPA make it a deal breaker?

Hi there! I am a 2025 grad, with experience as a software engineer developing full stack and Agentic solutions for my previous employer, which was a high frequency trading firm.

I am quite adept in building scalable software which can operate in low latency, and am good at deploying end to end solutions from backend to frontend.

I had to resign from my previous job due to personal reasons, and have been quite in touch with YC startups, and would love to work in an agentic or fintech startup in blr.
