Background

About Cheick Sissoko

With over 13 years of experience at Goldman Sachs, I specialize in software engineering, data engineering, analytics, and machine learning, driving business innovation and operational excellence. I have a proven track record of solving complex data challenges, designing scalable infrastructures, and modernizing legacy systems, all while delivering measurable results. Currently, as Senior Vice President of Engineering for Asset Servicing, I lead strategic initiatives to transform data workflows and modernize outdated systems. My team and I implemented a new data pipeline infrastructure and converted 15-year-old processes into modern Java-based services, resulting in a 30% reduction in manual processes and a significant improvement in system scalability and performance. Previously, as Vice President of Engineering for Client Accounts, I developed robotic process automation (RPA) solutions that reduced manual tasks by 10%, streamlining operations and boosting team efficiency. I have also implemented data pipelines that improved data quality and platform stability across the organization. With expertise in Large Language Models (LLMs), cloud platforms (AWS, GCP), and distributed data systems like Spark and Kafka, I focus on delivering impactful, scalable solutions that enhance performance and drive measurable outcomes.
