About Jacob
Teaching stems from the reality that technical gaps often block high-level career progress. A cold terminal prompt staring back at you is the standard starting point for these sessions. 11 years of experience in quant research and ML informs how I break down difficult concepts for working professionals and advanced learners.
My 10 years in the field and background from Princeton with an MS in CS mean I understand exactly what firms like Jane Street look for. I have guided countless students toward their first quant internship by focusing on deep conceptual clarity. My personal history includes 11 years of rigorous application and constant iteration on my own coding skills. I work with students who need practical results rather than just theory.
Many of my learners come from heavy academic backgrounds and need to pivot toward industry-ready programming. It is my goal to ensure you are ready to write production-quality code under pressure. Let us build your technical foundation together.

Real engineering happens long after you finish your first clean build. Getting code to run is easy, but keeping it scalable is the actual hurdle you need to clear. Sessions integrate Python, JavaScript, and data structures to ensure you handle backend APIs with confidence.
I emphasize version control via Git because that is where actual software teams live and work. We will maintain a rigorous pace to mimic the demands of a top tier tech interview.
As an added component, a hands-on mini project is assigned after every class to solidify the new logic. My degree and professional background keep our focus strictly on the applied math and logic required for success. You will learn to debug code as if your compensation depends on it. How fast can you identify the bottleneck in your current algorithm?
