Professional experience
Intercontinental Exchange - Manager/Principal, Clearing House Quantitative Risk Models Development (Quantitative Model Risk Management)
§ Led the India team of Quant Developers and Quant Researchers to help build and deliver industry-leading Quant Models being used by ICE futures & Liffe futures exchanges, the NYSE, equity options exchanges and OTC energy, credit and equity markets.
§ This covered various aspects such as:
§ Model Performance Reports (Governence, Benchmarking etc.) - Bug Fixes & UAT, Production deployment
§ Development of Quant Library QLIB-CCR-IM Initial Margin Model
§ ScalingL - Massively Parallel High-performance pricing and fitting algorithms - Optimizations & Enhancement (Implement real-time processing capabilities to handle dynamic market conditions and provide up-to-date pricing and fitting results)."Fitting algorithms" refer to mathematical methods like (kalman filter, MC simulation, regression analysis, least square fitting, MLEetc..) used to estimate model parameters based on observed historical data. Tech Stack - Scalable Single node 64 cores 4TB MPI HPC Cluster Architecture. 8500 Universes, 25 million financial instruments, 600 global source feeds. Real-time Processing, C++,STL,BOOST,Apache Parqut,Apache Arrow,PostgreSQL,Git,Jenkins.
Block Scholes Ltd – Director/Head of Engineering (Scalable Cloud Compute Real-Time Crypto Derivative Analytics Engine - Quantitative Analytics)
§ Led a team of engineers from end-to-end development of new key Blockscholes.com products
§ Architect, plan and execute building and deploying analytics engine (Real-time, Batch and Event driven calculation engine) (Functional Capabilities - Market Data Aggregation, Derivative Pricing Models, Risk Analytics) by connecting through WebSocket API & REST API, and ingesting data from, Derabit crypto derivatives exchange and providing analytics (VaR,Greeks-Delta,Gamma,Vega,Theta, Implied Volatility,Expected shortfall etc.)

HSBC Global Banking & Markets – Consultant Specialist (Options Trading - Quantitative Trading Strategies, And Derivative Pricing)
§ Developed Algorithmic trading stratagies named MUST (Multi Underlying Structured Trade), Also VWAP, TWAP
§ Performed universe update and factors update of liquidity and cyclicality models (Bid-ask spread,market depth, Trading Volume, Trend Analysis, Economic Events,Volatility Dynamics).
§ Extended and improved inhouse Europian FX Options pricing library of HSBC GBM, to calculate the probability-adjusted present value of the option's payoff at expiration by using adjusted volatility from liquidity and cyclicality models and djusting the Black-Scholes formula for Europian FX option pricing.
§ Tech Stack - C++, 2Node 8 Core 16 Thread NUMA Non-Uniform Memory Access Architecture HPC GRID, Git
HCL Tech- Software Engineer (Options Trading - Quantitative Derivative Pricing, And Trade Flow Intigrations)
§ Designed & Developed Europian FX Options C++ Pricing. Integrated opricing library into SUMMIT Trade flow module.
§ Coded Swaption pricing using BlackScholes, and Newton-Raphson method for root finding. The goal was to find the implied volatility that equates the theoretical option price (calculated using the Black-Scholes formula) to the market price of the option.
§ Apply the implied volatality to Black Scholes formula to get optiom premium. to get fair value of option rights. Intigated as a separate pricing library as a C++ DLL. (Dynamic Linked Library).
§ Tech Stack - C++, 2Node 8 Core 16 Thread NUMA Non-Uniform Memory Access Architecture HPC GRID,Git.
