We're a team of IIT, ISB, IIM and Wharton graduates trying to change the way information flows from a service provider to the final consumer. BuyT was on a mission to help people make the most informed decisions while availing digital services and transactions. On one hand, we collate and curate data from service providers (for example, e-commerce stores). On the other, we crawl and analyze content from major publishers to understand and interpret context and user behavior. Merging these two enables us to recommend the best deals, goods and services right where the content is and when a user is looking for information about them. We are all about performance and ROI-driven marketing. The BuyT ContentLink platform has been rolled out with marquee Indian publishers like TOI, NDTV, IndianExpress, India TV and Jagran, serving over 100 million monthly recommendations.We had a successful exit when Dailyhunt acquired BuyT (http://articles.economictimes.indiatimes.com/2015-07-15/news/64449941_1_platform-newshunt-ecommerce) to move from a news aggregator app to become the Internet gateway and one-stop-shop for 400 million+ local language users. BuyT is enabling Dailyhunt to put together a high-caliber tech and products team to build a platform and destination for multi-format content consumption. Show less

These were deployed predominantly in the US and later extended to other developed markets like Europe and Asia-Pacific.The internal hedge fund that we managed as a team of 6, had a portfolio of almost $100m and showed returns consistently higher than 30% during my stint of 2 years.

In the Equity Quant Analytics team at Nomura, I worked on the development and deployment of Quark - a novel, Python and Java-based WAN distributed framework used to crunch large amounts of market data for pre- and post-trade analytics, which forms the core of Nomura's flagship analytics offering, TradeSpex™.
