PhD, PMP (21-24), PSM I

Hello 👋🏻, I'm Dr. Jack 陳羲文 (超揚). As a fintech/web3 tech lead, book author, designer, and educator, my expertise spans various domains. By day, I spend most of my time working with a group of talented engineers and designers to build innovative products and services. By night, I follow my passion and play around with things that excite me. One particular project that I am proud of is the book 📙 Python API Development Fundamentals I authored a few years back, which is a comprehensive guide to building RESTful APIs with Python.

I am a strong advocate for web3 and blockchain technology. I have been actively involved in the blockchain community since 2017 and have been working on various projects in the space. I am also a proud owner of some crypto assets as well as a few NFTs 🖼 and have been experimenting with different blockchain technologies.

Being a passionate learner, I travel a lot ✈️, exploring new cultures and meeting new people. I also have multiple side projects (or experiments) ongoing that you may find interesting, such as this personal website that I built. Apart from being a sandbox for me to play around with different technologies, it is actually connected to my social media account (Instagram) and knowledge management system (Notion), allowing me to easily share my life and thoughts with you. By now, you can see that my life philosophy is to always be learning and sharing knowledge with others.

Every skill you acquire doubles your odds of success.

If you want to connect with me, you have my email and Telegram handle above. You can also follow me on Instagram & Facebook. I'm open to collaborations 🤝🤝🤝, business inquiries, and interviews. I speak English, Mandarin, and Cantonese, so feel free to reach out to me in any of these languages.


Professional Trajectory

My professional journey in the financial sector spans over a decade, beginning at Morgan Stanley where I supervised the Hong Kong and Tokyo Disclosure of Interest team and managed development for global data management systems. I implemented regulatory reporting rules for equity derivatives and structured products, stabilized cash reporting systems, and developed tools for data integrity, reconciliation, and offshore operations across Asia-Pacific markets, including new setups in China, Indonesia, India, and Taiwan. Transitioning to HSBC, I contributed to a high-profile global project migrating bond static data to the Murex trading platform, supporting credit trading initiatives.

Later, at BNP Paribas, I served as a Business Analyst for the iPrice structured product pricing system, collaborating with international teams on agile releases for products like accumulators and equity-linked notes in pan-Asia markets. At Bank of America, as Asia Compliance Deputy Tech Team Lead, I oversaw regulatory disclosure, trade surveillance, and compliance IT across 10+ countries, leading business analysis for strategic platforms handling massive transaction volumes. As Senior Project Manager in the COO office at Huatai, I drove growth strategies, regional expansion, new business buildouts, and process reengineering, while fostering Fintech industry connections.

Currently, at Binance, I lead key initiatives in trading platforms and blockchain oracle services, where I spearheaded a cutting-edge matching engine achieving $1.5 billion in daily trading volume and establishing Binance as the top platform for meme coins. My contributions include developing low-latency systems, maintaining zero downtime, enhancing liquidity and compliance, positioning oracle services as a leading provider with $500 million TVL, mentoring teams, and driving revenue through client-focused innovation.
