Diego Torres Quintanilla
I am an engineering manager at Two Sigma, where my team is in charge of maintaining the base tools of the PyData stack internally. Together, we build an ecosystem for our internal researchers and contribute back to open-source. If you're excited about the PyData stack, my team is hiring! Shoot me an email at [email protected] if you're interested.
I was born and raised in Monterrey, México, and moved to the US in 2012 to start college. In my free time I love to ride my bicycle, read fiction, and volunteering with organizations that work with the Hispanic community of New York.
Sessions
Two Sigma's financial scientists spend many of their most productive hours testing their hypotheses about the market in JupyterLab. Like with any research environment, responsiveness and easy collaboration are key to keep our users focused on their hypotheses, not the tools they use.
In this talk I will discuss Two Sigma's partnership with QuantStack's team to deliver direct-to-upstream contributions to improve JupyterLab's performance and furtheir its Real-Time Collaboration (RTC) initiative, all to be soon seen in JupyterLab 4.
Beyond just a teaser of new features to get excited for, this talk is a testimonial of a fruitful and successful relationship between two private entities, Two Sigma and QuantStack, which not only furthers each partner's own internal goals but also improves quality of life of all Jupyter users.
