After finishing his M.S. in computer science at New York University (NYU) in 2016, Sundeep Narang had plans to pursue a Ph.D. Those plans were quickly derailed after meeting David Rosenfeld, co-owner at Quality EDGAR Solutions.

Rosenfeld offered Narang a job as lead developer at Quality EDGAR Solutions, replete with the autonomy to design and develop tools for the company at a much faster clip than he could within academia. “Once I came to the startup work, it was more exciting. You build them and you get to see them in a month. That was the reason I jumped over,” he said.
