Our story

Our story

Datatailr was born out of firsthand experience building R&D platforms at some of the world’s leading financial institutions — Goldman Sachs, Barclays, J.P. Morgan, HSBC, Bank of America, and Beacon. After working with complex monolithic systems like SecDB and Athena, we set out to build the kind of software we wished we had as analysts and traders: easy experimentation, no rewrites when deploying apps and code, and the ability to roll out ideas quickly and modularly.

It started with Jan, who wrote the first version of the platform after running into the same deployment challenges over and over. Soon after, Dimitri and Damien joined, and together they grew the company with some of our earliest hedge fund clients.

What we do

What we do

For more than three years, with a team of 15 engineers, including creators of very popular open source projects, national Olympiad and hackathon winners, top world ranked Kaggle grandmasters - we operated in stealth with a select group of partners — rapidly iterating and refining our product to deliver scale, security, and simplicity across enterprises where data is mission-critical. Between our own development and testing, and hedge fund clients running their strategies, nearly $10 million was invested in cloud costs to test and prove the platform at scale.

As we grew, another challenge became clear: data connectivity without migration, and the need to break free from vendor lock-in. Datatailr was designed to make integration, scale, and exit seamless — ensuring flexibility at every stage.
