À propos de Antoine

I'm a quantitative researcher and machine learning engineer with 3+ years of experience building production-grade models and data systems across top financial institutions — Société Générale CIB (New York), Axa Investment Managers, Premialab (London), LCH, and an algo-trading firm in Tel Aviv.

My work sits at the intersection of advanced ML, statistical modeling, and large-scale data engineering. I've designed ML-driven alpha signals for cross-asset portfolios, built generative AI models (GANs) for synthetic time series, developed predictive models for fund holdings, and shipped high-performance backtesting pipelines processing hundreds of thousands of data points daily. Every project I deliver is modular, well-documented, and built to scale.

What I bring to the table:
— Machine Learning & AI — Supervised/unsupervised models, feature engineering, signal extraction, GANs for synthetic data generation
— Python Engineering — 8 years of Python. Clean, production-ready code. Multi-processing, modular architecture, API integration.
— Data Pipelines & Engineering — End-to-end frameworks: collection, cleaning, aggregation, statistical analysis. SQL, AWS, large-scale data (Bloomberg, Refinitiv, MSCI)
— Statistical Modeling — PCA, time series analysis, Nelson-Siegel, econometrics, stochastic calculus, hypothesis testing at scale
— Quantitative Finance — Systematic strategies (options, cross-asset), risk modeling, backtesting engines, P&L attribution
