I was a senior data engineer at Weiss Multi-Strategy Advisers where I worked on the risk team and reported directly to the Chief Risk Officer. Below I list my experiences.

Main Responsibilities (Risk Team):

• Worked directly under the chief risk officer to develop our data stack to run advanced analyses on our risk

Risk Dashboard with Advanced Statistical Modelling:

• Developed and deployed a series of Plotly dashboards to provide live insights on intraday investment risk
• Factor Analysis: Helped portfolio managers understand how an n-sigma factor move affects PnL via an interactive table utilizing minimum torsion analyses of internal and external factor-based models
• Single-Name Analysis: Calculated intraday beta-adjusted excess returns on single names and detected outlier movers across strategies via a Mahalanobis Distance analysis

Internal API Data Migration:

• Oversaw, developed, and implemented the migration of an internal API from R to Python that pulled data from an internal SQL server for use across the firm
• Deployed the API within a Linux server; helped analysts add their own functionality
• Created unit tests to ensure that the API functions were providing consistent, correct outputs

Bloomberg Data Migration:

• Developed and implemented a new SQL schema for Bloomberg Data License data that improved data quality and consistency and enabled the easier identification of where bugs occurred
• Built a program to automatically update the database and perform data validation checks daily

Mentorship/Leadership:

• Helped a recent college graduate learn Python techniques, coding best practices, full-stack development, etc.
• Aided in the deployment of an internal dashboard they built to track the firm’s spending

I was an AI and Analytics Consultant at IBM. Below I list some of the projects I worked on. On the side, I delivered knowledge transfer sessions on data science topics to my team.

Current Project:

• Developer
  
  • Increase sign-off delivery speed for new features for Fortune 500 company by developing custom software

Previous Projects:

• Cloud Architecture Designer
  

  • Building a data management and analytical architecture for our client based on their needs
  • Analyzed employee sentiment based on unstructured data collected from a workshop to determine how to best fit their needs

• Internal Developer
  

  • Developed a web-based application using the Django Python framework to forecast and map companies’ financial data
  • Built the unit testing functionality for the application to help other developers build and test new tools more efficiently

• RTR Testing Coordinator
  

  • Deployed SAP, ALM and Scrum to help teams implement SAP S/4HANA for client
  • Facilitated the testing of the Record to Report (RTR) end to end processes
  • Deployed Excel and ALM to track my team’s testing progress, coordinated and directed testing between different teams, and presented the status of our testing to my team and my supervisors daily

During my time at Fermilab, I grew my coding and analytics skills. I developed classes to runs imulations, learned and deployed statistics, and worked in a team. More specifically, I

• Developed software that simulated theoretical particle interactions by writing a custom class in Python, performing Monte Carlo and other integration techniques in Python, and developing the unit testing
• Compared calculations with members of my team to determine the validity of our predictions
• Implemented Monte Carlo simulations in Python to model particle interactions and compared these simulations to predictions made by Quantum Field Theory

As a third-year and fourth-year in college, I worked with the University of Chicago’s STEM Education Office, where I drew insights from a curriculum that we implemented at Chicago public schools and performed various office duties.

• Designed, executed, and analyzed survey results using Python, Excel, and SQL to draw meaningful conclusions regarding the results of the implementation of a district wide school program
• Identified and achieved savings opportunity to reclaim $600 of unused funds
• Write reports on teachers’ experiences in the World Chicago’s Professional Fellows Program based off of interviews of participants in the program
