Summary
Shravan Ravi is a quantitative researcher and Turing Scholar at UT Austin with eight years of engineering experience building high-performance research and trading infrastructure. He combines full-stack software skills in Java, C/C++, Python, and JavaScript with applied machine learning expertise—spanning CNNs, LSTMs, and deep RL in PyTorch and TensorFlow—to develop and validate simulation-driven HFT strategies. At Citadel Securities he moved from intern to quantitative researcher working on equities and futures strategy development, simulation, and QA behavior validation, after internships at Optiver and Tableau focused on research infrastructure and analytics. Comfortable across ROS robotics, backend services (Django/Flask/Firebase), and front-end React, he brings a rare blend of low-latency systems thinking and ML modeling. Colleagues describe him as a pragmatic researcher who translates complex microstructure insights into production-ready tooling.
