PROFILE

Thomas Dougherty

Worked on the taoshidev/proprietary-trading-network repository, delivering a series of analytics, scoring, and incentive system enhancements for a proprietary trading platform. Over five months, developed and refined Python-based algorithms for risk-adjusted performance measurement, asset segmentation, and incentive allocation, emphasizing robust backend development and quantitative finance techniques. Implemented daily returns, risk-free rate adjustments, and advanced drawdown and volatility metrics, while overhauling the scoring framework to improve statistical confidence and long-term performance emphasis. Strengthened governance through configuration management and documentation updates, introduced defensive programming for metric reliability, and ensured stability with comprehensive testing and code refactoring across evolving financial models and incentive structures.
