What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can develop and validate robust algorithmic strategies using walk-forward methods, out-of-sample testing, and stress testing, with a strong focus on reducing overfitting and improving stability across market regimes.

I’m a systematic crypto trader and quantitative strategy researcher with 7+ years of independent experience (2019-present), building and validating fully automated, rule-based trading systems for cryptocurrency markets. I combine systematic execution with discretionary trading experience across traditional asset classes, using probability and statistics to make strategy evaluation more reliable.

My core focus is robustness: I apply Walk-Forward Optimization, in-sample/out-of-sample testing, parameter-sensitivity and stability analysis, and regime stress testing to reduce overfitting and assess generalizability. I’ve developed 100+ custom Pine Script indicators and reusable signal components, run multi-year historical backtests with 1,000+ hours of research, and assemble diversified multi-strategy portfolios across signals, assets, and market regimes.
