About Synciro

Synciro was founded in 2020 by three distributed-systems engineers who had spent years battling the same problem at different trading firms: state inconsistency across geographically distributed systems. Orders executed in Tokyo that took seconds to reflect in London risk dashboards. Position data that diverged between the OMS and the PMS during volatile markets. Margin calculations based on stale prices because the data feed lagged behind the execution feed. These were not exotic edge cases — they were daily realities that cost firms real money.

The founders — Aleksei Petrov, Nadia Osman, and Chris Park — had each independently arrived at the same conclusion: the root cause was not bad software, but the absence of a proper coordination layer. Trading systems had grown organically, with each component maintaining its own state and communicating through ad-hoc messaging patterns that offered no consistency guarantees. Synciro was built to be that missing layer.

The company's first product was a distributed state-synchronization engine that sits between a firm's existing systems and guarantees causal consistency with bounded staleness. It required no rip-and-replace — firms plugged Synciro into their existing architecture and immediately gained a single, globally consistent view of orders, positions, and risk. The product found rapid adoption, and Synciro now serves 70 institutional clients from offices in London, New York, and Seoul. Our engineering team of 75 specializes exclusively in distributed systems for finance — a narrow focus that gives us depth no generalist vendor can match.
