Matthew Brulhardt is a machine learning engineer with 8 years of experience applying ML, statistics, and NLP to extract business insights and improve customer relationships. He has hands-on experience building production-ready ML infrastructure—using Ray and AWS Batch for scalable RL training, AWS Lambda for ETL pipelines, and GANs for synthetic financial time series—focused largely on trading and recommendation problems. Matthew contributed to the popular TensorTrade open-source RL framework, improving component access, order management, and test coverage to make trading agents more robust. With an MS in Statistics and a BS in Applied Mathematics from Stony Brook, he pairs strong quantitative foundations with practical engineering chops. Based in New York, he brings a track record of turning research ideas into deployable systems that accelerate experimentation and decision-making.

Contributions summary:Matthew implemented string-based access for components within the reinforcement learning framework, which enables the use of component names as identifiers. They refactored the data module and added support for decimal quantities. In addition to this, the user introduced functionalities for order management and added unit tests for the changes to the order system and portfolio, thus increasing the robustness of the framework.
