Quantitative Researcher | Algorithmic Trading | Data Science

 

I am a Quantitative Researcher with 18+ years of experience spanning systematic trading, quantitative research, data science, and statistical modeling. My background combines 10 years in financial markets with 8 years in machine learning and predictive analytics.

I have designed and managed systematic trading strategies across equities, commodities, and futures, delivering approximately 20% annual unlevered returns with a Calmar ratio of 2. My work includes alpha research, market regime detection, time-series forecasting, portfolio optimization, backtesting, and risk management. I also have extensive discretionary trading experience in Brent Crude and Gasoil futures, applying market microstructure, technical analysis, and fundamental research.

On the data science side, I have built machine learning and deep learning models using Python for forecasting, classification, NLP, and large-scale data analysis. My experience includes feature engineering, statistical modeling, BERT-based NLP, Dynamic Time Warping (DTW), and predictive modeling using modern ML techniques.

I'm looking for remote Quantitative Researcher roles where I can apply systematic research, quantitative modeling, and data science to build profitable trading strategies.
