Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAkshansh Bhatt is an Operational Risk Specialist with six years of experience who combines quantitative rigor with hands-on software development skills. Based in Hyderabad, he has contributed to high-profile open-source projects like SymPy and the lpython compiler—adding parser features, fixing core math routines, and improving test coverage—demonstrating a strong backend and test-automation focus. At Wells Fargo he progressed from intern to program associate and now to operational risk roles, applying engineering discipline to risk controls and process improvements. A BITS Pilani MS graduate and two-time Google Summer of Code participant, he brings a research-oriented mindset and curiosity across STEM that drives pragmatic, well-tested solutions. Unusually for a risk professional, he still codes in core language tooling and algebra systems, bridging domain risk understanding with production-grade engineering.
