Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolBo-xiao Zheng is a quantitative leader and Co-Founder serving as China CIO at AXQ Capital, combining 12 years of experience across quantitative research, systematic trading, and portfolio management. He built his analytical foundation with a PhD in theoretical chemistry from Princeton and began his career doing numerical studies of strongly correlated electrons published in top journals. Transitioning to finance, he was a quantitative researcher at Jump Trading before founding AXQ’s China business, where he runs AMAC-registered private fund strategies across equities and futures. Technically hands-on, he contributes to open-source scientific software such as the widely used pyscf quantum chemistry library, fixing core algorithmic bugs and improving low-level performance. Based in Shanghai, he hires and mentors researchers, developers, and portfolio managers, blending deep academic rigor with production trading operations. An uncommon combo of high-level academic theory and practical trading engineering gives him a rare edge in designing systematic strategies grounded in first-principles computation.
