@vasudevsharma
Economics graduate skilled in financial modeling, algorithmic trading, and AI automation.
What I'm looking for
I am an Economics graduate with hands-on experience building algorithmic trading systems and rigorous equity research. I developed a self-learning automated trading algorithm using Python, n8n, and the Alpaca API that delivered consistent daily P/L and improved trade-direction accuracy through advanced statistical tools.
I founded and led a Financial Literacy Club, organizing workshops for 700+ students, raising funds, and improving program efficiency and engagement. My research produced a detailed investment thesis with expanded financial modeling, regression forecasting, Monte Carlo simulation, and sensitivity analysis.
I bring practical strengths in financial modeling, AI automation, Excel, and data-driven decision making, with demonstrated results in P/L generation, loss reduction during volatility, and process optimization. I seek roles where I can apply quantitative finance, automation, and research skills to drive measurable impact.
