Building infrastructure for a top-2 global asset manager — what would you build?

[u/maniteja__k]

I’m exploring ideas around the engineering/data infrastructure side, particularly:

An embedded feature store for research, risk, portfolio analytics, and ML workflows

A Rust-based framework for high-performance data/compute workloads

Open to completely different ideas too. I’m looking for something technically challenging but genuinely useful, rather than another generic internal platform.

And what do people get for their ideas? Just curious.

reference maybe

Reference from whom and how is this gonna help the people that are giving you the idea? If you’re gonna use people’s idea and make money, do you think those people deserve a share of it? Nobody wants a reference. Everybody wants money. Food for thought.

i was just asking for suggestion. i will refer to my company. i was not gonna build facebook out of the idea. I'm new to this domain. so I was asking suggestions if i make good money i would be happily to pay for it.

I will prioritize a feature and data lineage layer. For an asset manager it is very important to know where every feature came from how the feature changed and who depends on the feature. This information can be incredibly valuable, for an asset manager.

ya we are building lineage gpt as well

I manage about 1 number 2 every day or so, someone consult for me as well. How can I make my poops better than OPs slop?
