Ashutosh Singh — Director of Engineering
> Director at D. E. Shaw with nineteen years of experience in macro investment research, specializing in emerging and frontier market currencies and geopolitical risk analysis. I support the firm's Currency Trading and Economics desk by developing analytical frameworks that translate macroeconomic developments, policy shifts, and geopolitical events into structured, investment-relevant insights across a broad coverage universe spanning Africa, Asia, Latin America, and Central/Eastern Europe. > My work sits at the intersection of quantitative rigor and qualitative judgment — combining econometric modelling, relative-value analytics, and scenario-based assessment with deep country-level expertise in markets where information is fragmented and standard research coverage is thin. I have also pioneered the application of large language models to macro research workflows, including sentiment quantification, expert-briefing synthesis, and automated data verification. > Prior to my current focus, I spent several years in equity research covering North American markets, building financial models and investment memoranda across multiple sectors. I hold an MBA in Finance from ICFAI Business School and have completed the Advanced Program in Data Science at IIM Calcutta.
