That's not to say I consider myself a genius or anything like that, but I do know that I have a passion for writing algorithms that solve deep problems. They won't get to know the ideas that I have for proving whether technical analysis "works" or not. The loss to the hedge fund is that they never got a chance to talk to me to see how I approach problems and how I have solved difficult problems in the past and currently. Had they been given those tools, they would have done a fantastic job, but alas, given the poor alternatives, could not even really begin the work. It is as if you asked someone to go build something and provide them with a screwdriver, a hammer and a handsaw when that person is very adept at using an electric drill, a nail gun and an electric saw. This took some time, especially since the development environment provided by the website is nowhere near as powerful as Visual Studio, which I usually use. So, I became flustered and decided to convert my Mathematica code to C#. I was devastated as I knew that it would take time to write the solution in C#. All the other languages that I knew (C,C++,C#) would have taken much more time. The solution to the problem would have taken just a couple of lines of code in Mathematica. But, when I looked at the languages that they provided on the programming site, my favorite language, Mathematica, was not available. I had the answer within a minute in my head.
And, indeed a bit later I received an invitation to answer a couple of questions on a programming site.Įxcitedly, I went to the site read the first problem. I applied to a top hedge fund and was thrilled to receive an email saying that they would be in touch. Recently I have wanted to branch out and have been looking for a financial company that could use someone with my experience and background. I have created and teach, among other things, Software System Development and Object-Oriented Programming courses. In that time I worked on algorithms for educational software on grants as large as $3 million and on Technical Analysis algorithms for financial companies.Īs a minority (I am Black), I wanted to give back and let other minorities know that they too, can be engineers, programmers and attain higher degrees. I have taught computer science for the last 18 years. Since earning that, I've worked in some of the world’s largest research laboratories. in Electrical Engineering with a specialization in pattern recognition and Technical Analysis Algorithms. Wolfram Knowledgebase Curated computable knowledge powering Wolfram|Alpha.I have a Ph.D. Wolfram Universal Deployment System Instant deployment across cloud, desktop, mobile, and more.
