EXPERIENCE
QT Technologies, Inc. 09/2016-11/2016
Data analyst assistant
Developed the queries and stored procedures with SQL Server, manipulated large structured/unstructured datasets to extract insights from large datasets, analyzed different user cases to improve relative technique
Worked on various tasks related to industrial data extraction, data modeling, created Pivot Tables & Charts, diagrams and graphs with Excel to visualize primary data and support weekly and monthly market reports
Developed SQL queries with “Select”, “Join”, “Where” and “Update” functions to migrate data from one or more disparate sources to a single format integrated dataset every week

Summer Analyst
Created option volatility relative value analytics spreadsheet with data from Bloomberg and automated by Excel
Computed the price of swaption using Monte Carlo path and calculated the correlation of different swaption
Developed R programs to automatically retrieve market data for colleagues
Project
A Data-Mining Approach to Analyse the Financial Data 01/2017 – 03/2017
Analyzed financial data from Bloomberg with Excel (using functions like “NORMSINV”, “KURT”, “SKEW”, “CORREL”, “COVAR”, “VLOOKUP”, “HLOOKUP”)
Loaded SQL driver, made connections between R and SQL, implemented Data extraction (Functions like “dbSendQuery” and “dbFetch”) using different APIs to get the financial data
Plotted data, prepared plot dataset, text dataset and rectangle dataset for “ggplot”, plotted data using packages like “ggplot2”, “ggdendro”
Pricing of Put Options and Other Derivatives 09/2016 - 12/2016
Examined drift and volatility terms of Ho Lee Model using MATLAB
Priced an American Up and Out put option and interest rates derivatives, modelled the short rate using various term structures based on the Stochastic processes and PDE models
Credit Derivatives Risk Analyses 01/2016 – 05/2016
According to par CDS spreads, continuously compounded interest rates, recovery rates, and day count conventions to calculate the hazard rates, calculating the “VaR” and “CVaR”
Different regulations and its effects, CCR RWA calculating methods as well as the Market Risk RWA calculating
Basel III and Basel II knowledge
Regression and Clustering 09/2015 - 11/2015
Performed Linear Regression, Logistic regression and added regression line, used function “cut” to convert variable and set break point, renamed the levels and used functions like “table” and “ftable” to get the relationship between variables
Created scatterplot matrix using “pair” function and used “regsubsuts” to get the important variable affecting one specific event, Compute the confusion matrix and overall fraction of correct predictions
Predicted sales using regression trees and related approaches, plotted the tree
Performed Classification and Linear Model Selection, Regularization as well as methods for resampling
