Javier Fernández Guerra

ML & Quantitative Finance Specialist · Madrid, Spain
Quant Research & Data Products Intern @ SIX Group · BME

I work at the intersection of machine learning and capital markets — alpha generation, factor research, deep learning for time series, and the rigorous out-of-sample validation that turns a backtest into a strategy.

Background

  • Quant Research & Data Products Intern @ SIX Group · BME
  • MSc — AI Applied to Financial Markets @ Instituto BME — SIX Group · current GPA 9.23 / 10
  • BSc — Business Administration · Data Analytics @ Universidad Autónoma de Madrid · First Prize, Best Quantitative Thesis — L. R. Klein Institute for Economic Forecasting (2025)

Selected projects

Repo What it is
eurostoxx-ml-stock-selection Bachelor's thesis (1st Prize). Cross-sectional ML stock selection on the Euro Stoxx 50: 20+ factors, rolling-window OOS backtest, genetic-algorithm hyperparameter search. +11.3% annualised alpha vs benchmark, Sharpe 0.59 across 40+ quarterly periods.
miax-neural-networks Deep learning for S&P 500 return forecasting — MLP / RNN / CNN / mixed architectures, multiple input windows. Model-driven portfolio that ~doubles equal-weight benchmark returns on 2025 out-of-sample.
miax-finance Seven quantitative finance studies: fixed income, equities, derivatives (delta-hedged straddle on SPY), risk modelling (HMM, copulas), advanced backtesting, ML preprocessing à la López de Prado, fund of funds construction.
miax-bayesian-networks DAG-based causal discovery on macro and equity-style returns. Reproduces the factor mirage result (López de Prado & Zoonekynd, 2025) on real data.
miax-stock-toolkit Modular Python toolkit for equity data extraction, Monte Carlo path simulation and portfolio analytics. Typer CLI, typed dataclasses, clean architecture.
gbm-monte-carlo Geometric Brownian Motion + Monte Carlo for price-path simulation. Calibrated on historical data, with VaR, CVaR and maximum drawdown estimation.
