Work Experience

Quantitative Analyst, TradeScience August 2020 - July 2021

I am engaged in technical analysis of derivatives market to design systems based on momentum and volatility of underlying asset. My responsibilities include implementing & backtesting trading strategies, and reviewing trade statistics to optimize strategy performance. It also involves triangulating novel solutions to increase profit, reduce drawdown, for maintaining strong risk-adjusted portfolios.

Internships

Projects

Here are some selected projects that I have worked on

	Motion Planning for Mobile Robot code A reinforcement learning model for an autonomous agent in a grid world domain. The problem is modeled as a Markov Decision Process and policy for states is determined using value iteration. Covergence is determined by combined criteria of policy change and max norm of value change.
	PageRank using MapReduce code A pipeline to solve Google's PageRank algorithm using the MapReduce paradigm for distributed computing. Multi-threaded MapReduce library is developed utilizing the MPI for split-apply-combine strategy, outperforming the standard MapReduce-C++ & MapReduce-MPI libraries. Picture Credit
	Advanced RISC Machine based Processor code A 32-bit CPU designed for complete ARMv7 instruction set, writtten in Very High Speed Integrated Circuit Hardware Description Language(VHDL), and implemented on Basys3 Field Programmable Gate Array(FPGA) Board Picture Credit
	Traffic Simulator code A C++ simulator for Indian road traffic intersection, using OpenGL for GUI rendering. It supports realistic lane change behavior for Indian traffic. The simulator can be visualized on terminal as well as OpenGL. Picture Credit
	Platform Game code A multi-leveled role-playing based arcade game developed using impact.js. Fun to play for people like me who loved the 8-bit retro world and always look back to the games we played as a child to unwind.
	Functional Language Interpreter code A compiler with call-by-name(Krivine Machine) and call-by-value(SECD Machine) semantics, implemented in OCaml. It takes tokens generated from a Lexer to create an Abstract Syntax Tree using recursive Parser. Picture Credit
