Senior🎓
Top SchoolRicky Cordero is a Senior Software Engineer based in New York with 11 years of experience building data-driven systems and applied machine learning for finance and startups. He has moved from data science and production analytics into senior engineering roles at a global macro hedge fund, where he bridges quantitative research and production-grade software. Ricky combines entrepreneurial experience—founding and shipping apps and pitching in Silicon Valley—with rigor from a mathematics degree at Northeastern and business studies at Stanford Continuing Studies. He’s comfortable across the stack, shipping data pipelines, ML research prototypes, and production services under tight latency and reliability constraints. Known for a challenge-driven mindset, he brings both investor-facing product instincts and hands-on engineering discipline to complex, high-stakes systems. An under-the-radar strength is his ability to translate quantitative models into maintainable engineering artifacts that scale in real trading environments.
