About

I hold a Master’s degree in Quantitative Finance from "AFI Escuela de Finanzas," one of Spain's leading finance schools. With over a decade of experience in the finance sector, I have developed a strong expertise in quantitative analysis and software development, particularly in the creation and implementation of pricing libraries for complex financial derivatives. My career began at BBVA, where I worked as a Senior Quant Developer on the trading floor, building and adapting pricing libraries for Interest Rate and Credit derivatives. My role involved significant contributions to system migrations and upgrades, including a major Murex upgrade and a portfolio migration to Calypso. In 2022, I took on the role of Lead Quant Developer at KWA Analytics, where I focus on developing Beacon Platform-based systems. My work involves creating advanced calculation libraries and ETL processes for credit risk metrics, particularly for Asset-Based Lending. Throughout my career, I have consistently applied my strong mathematical and analytical skills to deliver solutions that meet complex business requirements. My experience across international markets, combined with certifications such as Financial Risk Manager (FRM) and Beacon Certified Financial Engineer, reflects my commitment to excellence in quantitative finance and risk management.

Best back-end engineers I've ever worked with...​

“I interviewed about a dozen different firms. DevsData LLC is truly exceptional – their backend developers are some of the best I’ve ever worked with. I’ve worked with a lot of very well-qualified developers, locally in San Francisco, and remotely, so that is not a compliment I offer lightly. I appreciate their depth of knowledge and their ability to get things done quickly. “
