Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolLarry Cao is a Data Anomaly Lead and developer with nine years of experience building data-driven systems for crypto and finance, holding a Master's in Data Science from HKU. He designs multi-strategy quantitative trading systems and a momentum portfolio that backtests to a Sharpe ratio above 5, and has shipped high-coverage data exporters and monitors for DEXes and lending protocols across Ethereum and bridges. His background in NLP and machine learning includes raising NER F1 to 91% and implementing dynamic entity linking for economic indicators, reflecting strong applied research to production skills. At Santiment he translated complex on-chain liquidity and liquidation signals into reliable pipelines covering over 90% of relevant volumes, and he’s delivered technical seminars on AMMs and Uniswap v3. Based in Hong Kong with UK ties, he pairs quantitative rigor with practical engineering chops—and is, less obviously, a former local CSGO top player, hinting at competitive focus and quick decision-making.
