About Abdessamad

Engineer from École Centrale Lyon, with 9 years of experience including 6 years in data science, in the design of quantitative models and data products in the financial sector.

As a Senior Data Scientist at London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG), I designed and developed quantitative models and data products for institutional asset managers, from raw data collection to production-ready datasets (macroeconomics, finance, sustainability (ESG), energy, and climate) serving systematic investment strategies.

Previous experience as a mathematical modeling and numerical simulation engineer (Python development) in the nuclear sector at Framatome (formerly AREVA NP).
Engineering degree with a strong focus on applied mathematics, statistics, physics, numerical simulation, programming, and energy systems.

Available for freelance missions in Paris and remotely.
