    I am a seasoned freelance quantitative developer with over 5 years of professional Python development experience, specializing in automated trading and backtesting for the past 3 years. I bring a wealth of expertise in quantitative development, particularly with the powerful backtesting library, Vectorbtpro, hyperparameter optimization library Optuna and machine learning and neural networks centered around the ecosystem of Tensorflow. My primary skill set includes: - Programming Languages: Python - Data Manipulation: Pandas, Numpy, Numba - Backtesting Tools: Vectorbtpro, Backtesting.py - Technical Analysis Libraries: Ta-lib, pandas-ta - Machine Learning and Optimization: Tensorflow, Scikit-learn, Autokeras, Optuna, Tuneta, Mlflow - Preferred trading resources: CCXT, Python-binance, MetaTrader5 - Scripting: Pinescript - Databases: MySQL, SQLite, PostgreSQL - Web Development: Django, Flask, FastAPI - API Integrations: REST API, Websockets - Message Brokers: Redis Recently, my passion project has been building a backtesting and trading framework that aims to bridge the gap between backtesting and optimization with live trading, such that they operate seamlessly together, to ensure live trading is both as optimized as possible and runs as close to our backtests as possible. It leverages machine learning techniques such as hyperparameter optimization and cross-validation to optimize strategies and avails neural networks to integrate into your strategies, while using Vectorbtpro at its heart for backtesting. In addition, I am highly experienced in backend web development and can take any trading based system or idea from paper, to a competent, integrated trading system with all the feaures you might expect such as reporting, notifications, API integrations, etc. Together with my partner developer resources (through my agency Quantforge Software) I can also assist with frontend web, to bring the entire chain together if needed. By integrating advanced backtesting tools with machine learning, I provide robust and powerful solutions that optimize and prepare trading strategies for live trading. Thank you for taking the time to assess my profile. Feel free to reach out to discuss your project needs and how I can assist in achieving your trading objectives.
