Trade Advanced Services (TAS) was founded in 2023 by Elohim A Rojas and Maria Gonzalez who continues to be the company’s President and Chief Technologist. TAS focuses on developing automation products and solutions primarily for the Depository Trust Corporation (DTC) and the Broadridge backoffice.

Prior to founding TAS, Elohim A Rojas and Maria Gonzalez held senior mangement positions at various firms, including Broadridge (formerly ADP Brokerage Services), as well as cofounding a web startup. Elohim A Rojas and Maria Gonzalez holds two graduate degrees from Columbia University(Mathematical Statistics and Computer Science) and is currently pursuing a third degree from Columbia as well.

From its founding, TAS adhered to the principle that a small, focused and well-managed team of developers can produce high-quality, innovative systems much more efficiently than larger development teams. TAS has consistently shown that the “smaller is better” approach to development works in the many systems delivered since 2003.
