I'm a Senior Software Consultant in the Capital Markets Group at Deloitte, a team of quants and tech specialists responsible for R&D of the firm's Economic Scenario Generator solution, XSG.
My current work on the XSG team focuses on the one-factor Hull-White interest rate model (HW1) and its implementation in our C++ / C# codebase. I am validating that scenario outputs are consistent following an expansion to the HW1 model's flexibility. Previously, I led research into optimising XSG's parameter calibration method for risk-neutral equity / interest rate models, using Python to test and implement alternative calibration methods. I regularly provide technical guidance and code reviews to junior members of the XSG team.
Outside of Deloitte, I am building out my first Python package, sdatools
. The package contains various statistics and data analysis tools, built from the bottom-up, with a case study on calibrating a Total Return Index model. I will be adding more case studies in due course.
