10 Goldman Sachs engineering leaders
Goldman Sachs engineering leadership spans shared platforms (middleware, runtime, application development, cloud) and the engineering groups behind investment banking, FICC, wealth management and transaction banking. Every one has held a managing director title at the firm and nine still work there; bring them a question about splitting work between firmwide platforms and division teams, or about keeping platforms resilient under bank controls.

Choose the right perspective
For questions about shared infrastructure, start with the four platform heads: Nikhil Gadodia (middleware), Rohan Deshpande (application development platform), Amit Gangrade (runtime platforms) and Miruna Stratan (TxB platform engineering). Nishith Desai, Anushree Srivastava, Abbas Ginwala and Martin Walsh hold or held engineering titles tied to specific divisions, and Rashmi Mathur's ETO role is the pick for production control and business continuity.
Questions to take into the conversation
- 01Which capabilities should sit on a firmwide platform such as middleware or a shared runtime, and which should each division's engineering team own outright?
- 02How do you keep a large engineering center far from headquarters in step with the production control and business continuity standards every division expects?
- 03When a division such as wealth management or transaction banking asks for its own platform, how do you decide what to reuse from core engineering?
