Pricing and valuation
Pricing engines for complex financial products, calibration workflows, elasticity estimation, and margin-aware decision support.
Data Scientist, Quantitative Systems Engineer
I design ML-based systems, forecasting systems, optimization models, and production analytics that have to survive real constraints, messy data, and executive scrutiny. The work sits at the intersection of data science, ML, AI, optimization,quantitative research, software engineering, and operational reality.
What I Build
My background spans chemical engineering, applied mathematics, data science, optimization, and ML systems. Across each role, the constant has been the same: model the system carefully, respect the constraints, and make the output useful in the real world.
I work best where research quality and operational accountability have to coexist. That usually means stochastic models, forecast engines, calibration loops, reconciliation frameworks, and reporting layers that can be trusted by both technical operators and decision makers. More recently, that same operating style has extended naturally into agentic AI and intelligent systems: LLM-backed workflows, tool-using agents, and orchestration layers that help models act safely and usefully inside production constraints.
Pricing engines for complex financial products, calibration workflows, elasticity estimation, and margin-aware decision support.
Forecast systems with reconciliation, confidence bands, lifecycle logic, and scenario-aware outputs that survive operational use.
Replay systems, payout attribution, abuse or behavior research, and analytical frameworks for explaining performance under uncertainty.
Libraries and pipelines that connect research code, transactional data, monitoring, and executive reporting without losing rigor.
Tool-aware LLM workflows, evaluation and tracing with LangSmith, graph-based orchestration with LangGraph, and MCP-style integrations that let agents reason, call tools, and operate within real business boundaries.
Selected Private Work
Some of the most ambitious work in this repository is intentionally kept at a high level. The common thread across those projects is large-scale simulation, calibration, forecasting, reconciliation, and production decision support. That same private work now also includes intelligent-system patterns for orchestrating tools, structuring agent loops, tracing behavior, and making LLM outputs more auditable in production-like settings.
Industry Footprint
Since 2011, I have solved applied math and analytics problems for organizations operating in energy, finance, consulting, logistics, public sector, retail, and deep technical domains.

Earlier Public Projects
Independent applied data science work and technical writing on analytics, AI, and visualization.
Research and system development around algorithmic trading, statistical arbitrage, and portfolio analysis.
Public project work that combined network analysis, event interpretation, and visual communication.
Background
The early engineering years shaped how I still approach quantitative work today: understand the process, formalize the constraints, build the model, and make the result operationally defensible.
