Ayon Bakshi is a quantitative developer in New York with nine years of software and machine learning experience spanning systematic equities, foundation-model training, and RL-driven physics simulation. He currently builds stat-arb systems at Cubist, after internships at Apple on efficient foundation-model pretraining and data-efficient deep learning and at NVIDIA on GPU-accelerated RL/physics research. His background from Waterloo in Computer Science and Combinatorics & Optimization reflects a strong blend of algorithmic rigor and practical systems engineering, applied to low-latency trading infrastructure and large-scale ML experiments. Comfortable moving between research and production, he has repeatedly delivered end-to-end solutions—from GPU simulation pipelines to core infra services—showing an uncommon cross-domain fluency. Colleagues can expect a practitioner who pairs quantitative modeling with performant implementation and a track record of shipping complex prototypes into production.
