I work on algorithmic trading and quantitative research, with a focus on how decisions propagate through markets.
- Algorithmic trading strategies grounded in market microstructure, regime shifts, and adaptive position sizing (Kelly-inspired, not naïve Kelly)
- Research-grade experiments at the intersection of quant finance, ML, and decision-making under uncertainty
- End-to-end systems: data → signal → backtest → risk → execution (no toy notebooks, no curve-fitting theater)
- Quant research: alpha signals, execution models, market impact, volatility & regime modeling
- ML-for-finance papers with publishable ambition (NeurIPS / ICML / AISTATS level)
- Serious open-source work in numerical methods, optimization, or trading infrastructure
If it can’t be backtested, falsified, or measured, it’s not research.
- Strong feedback on research rigor (assumptions → experiments → failure analysis)
- Review from people who’ve shipped real-money strategies or publishable work
- Brutal critiques of math, code, and reasoning — politeness adds no value here
- Probability, stochastic processes, and optimization for quant roles
- Deep learning & reinforcement learning for sequential decision problems
- How elite researchers structure problems before touching code
- Quant trading competitions & live strategy design
- Turning non-finance intuition into tradable signals
- Building ML systems fast without sacrificing correctness
I don’t come from a traditional quant background — and I treat that as an edge, not an excuse.
