Régis Makhmara is a freelance software engineer and quantitative developer with 11 years of experience bridging applied mathematics, finance, and production-grade engineering. He has built pricing and forecasting models in the energy sector, pursued research in nature-inspired network optimization at École Polytechnique, and worked as a quantitative researcher at JPMorgan in London. Comfortable moving between theory and implementation, he translates complex stochastic models into reliable software for trading and operational use. Now based in Toulouse and freelancing through Dekia, he focuses on delivering robust numerical solutions and scalable codebases. His background combines top-tier French mathematical training with hands-on industry experience, including a rare mix of academic research methodology and commercial product delivery. Colleagues note his ability to spot elegant mathematical simplifications that reduce computational cost in real-world systems.
