I am
a B.Tech student in the Computer Science and
Engineering department at Indian Institute of
Technology, Madras and a strategist at the
Programming Club IITM. I am interested in learning about new technology and building interesting structures.
I’ve interned at several companies.
- Tower Research Capital - North Moore trading team - Gurgaon
- Jan 2024 - Dec 2025. I loved the whole experience. My manager and team were always open for questions - I think I could have asked more. The office was splendid from the large glass view from my seat to snacks everyday at 5.
- I worked on creating a new data feed from a custom data source to improve simulation time. All the work was in C++.
- Optiver Services B.V - Amsterdam
- May 2025 - Jul 2025. Stayed at social hub amsterdam city. The office is 15 minutes away by metro.
- I worked as a Quantitative trading intern where we sim-traded eurostoxx options on the live market. We also completed a research project based on NASDAQ-100(QQQ) and SP500 options trading strategies. I focussed on QQQ and later on the spread between QQQ and SPX options. I searched online regarding the spelling of focus(s)ed - It seems in British and Australian English the double 's' version is used 'sometimes' whereas in Amercian English focussed is the norm.
- We also played many trading games such as market making and trading options on the settlement of numerous things like - number of bird species.
- Competed in teams on trading stocks in a simulated environment.
I am always looking for interesting things to learn. Contact me if you want to discuss.
