I just exited a Ph.D. program in algebraic geometry, looking at performing differential geometry over discrete “manifolds”. In particular, I was interested in porting General Relativity to a discrete differential geometry realm. Now, I’m looking for remote work.

In broad strokes, my talents lie in three main domains. Relaying what I hear from my peers: 1) my ramp-up time on technical subjects is fast, 2) my analysis is deep and careful, and 3) my explanations of highly technical material are lucid and helpful. Words are words though, so I hope to find a team with lots of opportunities for growth, and where my natural talents are useful and appreciated.

On the DevOps side, I have a relatively comprehensive understanding of Linux as an OS, having used Linux primarily since middle school. These days, I pretty much live in the command line and (finally) have the background to rely primarily on man/info pages and source code for my documentation needs, without resorting to blogs or wiki pages.

Finally, I love math. I find it beautiful, exhilarating, not to mention useful. Regardless of day job, I find myself spending a good bit of my free time studying algebra, geometry, and their intersection. This interest spills over into languages like Haskell and Scheme, hardware execution models, and even the Linux kernel.

I would flourish in R&D or any position that can use an overabudance of curiosity and a scrutinizing eye.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

SEEKING WORK – New York / Remote

Location: New York

Remote: Yes

Experienced full-stack developer with a machine learning focus. Building data-driven applications that deliver material business results is my specialty. I’ve been fortunate enough to work in a variety of industries from Quantitative Finance to Insurance Technology (InsurTech) and Recycling & Waste Management Technology (WasteTech). I’m pragmatic, professional, and put a strong emphasis on communicating clearly and developing projects towards mutually accepted first priniciples. Happy to chat about your specific domain and what might be achievable.

Technologies: python, flask, django MySQL, sqlalchemy, pandas, scikit-learn, html/css/js, jquery, bootstrap, jupyter, R, pytorch

Email: contact[at]autokatalyst.com

Available for the following:

* Full-Stack Web Development

* Data Science/Business Analytics

* Business Process Automation

* Quantitative Risk Management (Hedge Funds/HFT/Systematic Trading)

  - extensive experience developing regulatory/operational/trading risk management tools in quantitative finance.

I enjoy solving business problems with software and diving into various domains and building solutions that have a material impact on the bottom line. One of my best performing projects (continues to save millions annually) required 70% digging into a problem domain and 30% coding. Another recent project I’m proud of is an ML-powered pricing engine that’s given a $250+M funded competitor’s service in the space a run for it’s money. I’ve produced results working both as a member of a technical team and independently (working directly with key stakeholders/executives).
