Quantitative analyst and algorithmic trader focused on data-driven portfolio optimization.
What I'm looking for
I am an Actuarial Science student with professional experience in quantitative trading and financial analysis, combining strong statistical foundations with practical implementation skills. I have developed systematic strategies and conducted robustness testing to improve risk-adjusted returns.
At N.I.O Asset Management I design, backtest, and automate strategies (Momentum, Mean-Reversion, Trend-Following) using Python, MQL5, R, and StrategyQuant, and apply risk metrics such as VaR, Sharpe, and Ulcer Index. I also build interactive dashboards and perform data extraction and cleaning from multiple sources to support investment decisions.
As a Senior Analyst at Oven S.A. I lead financial and administrative management tasks—cashflow, liquidity monitoring, inventory optimization, and KPI reporting—using inferential statistics to reduce costs and maximize profitability. I seek to expand my expertise with advanced certifications and graduate studies in finance and quantitative methods.
