Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolCharlie Reese is a founder and CEO with nine years of experience building software and data products for institutional and systematic investors, currently leading ForecastOS to commercialize AI-driven quantitative investing tools. With a background spanning investment banking, venture-stage engineering, and product leadership, he has shipped production ML pipelines and feature engineering systems that have supported market-neutral equity strategies and automated private credit investment at scale. He pairs hands-on engineering—having built internal quant platforms like Hivemind and distributed feature pipelines—with investor-grade rigor from roles at CPP Investments and Founderpath. Based in Vancouver, he’s pragmatic about product-market fit, having iterated on multiple startups (from scheduling SaaS to retail data tools) and shut them down when economics or focus demanded it. That blend of trading-room discipline, software craftsmanship, and founder grit makes him effective at turning complex financial data into deployable investment alpha.
