Professional Experience

Quantitative Risk Analyst & ML Engineer

Mar. 2025 – Present

ResearchWorks LTD · Part-time Project · Tashkent, Uzbekistan

Python, LightGBM, SQLite, Statistical Analysis

  • Developed behavioral risk prediction system for proprietary day traders using machine learning to predict negative PnL with 70%+ precision and Sharpe ratio over than 0.5.
  • Engineered 20+ behavioral features from trading data (revenge trading, loss aversion, position sizing) with proper temporal validation to prevent data leakage.
  • Built end-to-end pipeline: PropreReports API ingestion → SQLite database → feature engineering → LightGBM model → automated email alerts with calibrated confidence scores.
  • Implemented time-series cross-validation and backtesting framework with transaction cost modeling, achieving lower Expected Calibration Error for risk predictions.

Optimization Engineer, Operations Research & Development
