• Update prediction algorithms in order to properly identify advanced threats and reduce the time of threat identification from launch time. This provides critical additional time (seconds to minutes) for a counter measure response to be effective in neutralizing the advanced threat.• Independently driven bug identification and associated code updates and testing.• Peer code reviews to ensure updates are optimized and correctly obtain the desired outcome.• Algorithm and software tools improvement. Regression testing across multiple programs and codebases.• State estimation, typing, and prediction. Investigation and analysis of anomalies which drives further development

• Created quantitative trading algorithm by designing and developing backtesting software.• Designed and developed a graphical user interface to facilitate strategy development.• Designed and developed a 3D data visualization utility to illustrate strategy potential.• Designed and developed data and ETL pipelines utilizing MYSQL database.• Presented findings to friends and family, raising $200k at launch.
