  Research Consultant, Data Scientist

  - Performed predictive time series analysis to take market-neutral long-short rebalancing positions that generated significant alphas. Developed approx. 150 alphas(strategies) with significant weight in total- Experimented with bagging, boosting, linear models, regularisation, model blending, stacking etc., optimised hyperparameters using Gridsearch to design models having better predictability than base models for regression and classification problems. Outperformed base model performance based on metrics such as Precision, Recall, Auc_roc, RMSE, and MAE. Tech stack used: Scikit-learn, Pandas, Numpy, Matplotlib, Seaborn, SQL, Tableau. Show less
