No Computer Science undergrad - Economics instead
Worked 1 year as an economic analyst in government, then
Worked 2 years as a quantitative programmer in energy industry, then
Currently doing Masters in CS, will graduate Sep 2017.
Anyone who knows someone looking to hire a good developer should get in touch :-)
Brazen sales pitch:
I haven't been in CS all my life but I learn fast and have good mathematical and communication skills and am all-around a nice person to work with. Also went to internationally top-ranked schools and got more-or-less perfect grades if any 'someones' care about that kind of thing (not that I think that should matter - what matters is what I can build - but some employers use it as a proxy).
I know C++ Python SQL R Matlab MS-Excel Windows UNIX to varying degrees and can more-or-less learn anything needed quite quickly. By graduation I will know also Java Assembler Prolog and all general computing topics at a broad level, e.g. computer architecture, concurrency, databases, algorithms, networking, basic AI/machine learning, OSes.
Mathematically I know some undergrad-level applied maths, e.g. optimization, linear algebra, statistics and probability, calculus.
Generally interested in software development in tech or quantitative development / software development in finance or fintech.
