With 10+ years of experience in quantitative research, AI/ML, and technology recruiting, I specialize in connecting top-tier talent with unique opportunities across hedge funds, proprietary trading firms, fintech, AI-driven startups, and deep tech companies. At Highlands Talent Group, I work with cutting-edge firms at the intersection of quant finance, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and emerging technologies. I partner with world-class researchers, engineers, and innovators to build teams that push the boundaries of systematic trading, AI-driven investment strategies, and deep tech applications. 🔹 Deep Network – Strong relationships with top researchers, engineers, and builders in quant finance, AI/ML, blockchain, and frontier tech. 🔹 Industry Expertise – Deep understanding of systematic trading, reinforcement learning, time series forecasting, NLP, LLMs, and next-gen computing. 🔹 Strategic Hiring – Proven ability to identify and attract high-impact talent across quant trading, AI research, tech startups, and enterprise innovation. Previously, I led Quantitative Research & PhD Recruiting at Citadel & Citadel Securities, shaping the firm’s strategy for engaging top-tier talent from leading research institutions. Now, I help companies—from high-frequency trading firms to deep-tech startups—scale their teams with exceptional talent in AI, ML, and cutting-edge research. 📩 Let’s connect if you’re hiring, exploring opportunities, or just want to talk about the future of quant, AI, and deep tech!
