Edward Hutter is a quantitative researcher with a decade of experience translating high-performance scientific computing and numerical algorithms into production algorithmic market-making strategies at Citadel Securities. He holds a PhD in Computer Science from UIUC and has a strong background in tensor methods, communication-avoiding linear algebra, and performance-portable kernels developed during DOE fellowships and national lab internships. Edward combines deep research rigor—publishing and building advanced numerical solvers—with hands-on trading systems engineering, having progressed from intern to researcher within Citadel in under two years. Based in New York, he blends low-latency software design with statistical modeling and autotuning expertise to squeeze measurable edge from complex markets. An uncommon strength is his proven ability to move ideas from high-performance research code to robust, deployable systems under production constraints.
