About Li Shen

As a seasoned Data Scientist with a Master's degree in Financial Engineering from HEC Montreal and a background in Applied Statistics, I bring over 3 years of experience in the financial and blockchain industries. My journey began at Singapore Management University and led me to roles at prestigious organizations like Binance and BOCOM Wealth Management. At Binance, I excelled as a Data Scientist Intern within the Big Data Team, where I leveraged Python and SQL for big data analytics. I developed a deep learning model for the Market Surveillance Team, significantly reducing false positive alerts in identifying Pump & Dump activities in the Spot market. This model, achieving an impressive F1 score of 0.916, is a testament to my ability to blend technical expertise with practical applications. My role also involved gathering and analyzing data related to blockchain scams, phishing attempts, and hacks. I built algorithms to detect market manipulation and designed models to assist the VIP Team in detecting nested financial services, showcasing my versatility in handling diverse and complex data challenges. At BOCOM Wealth Management, I further honed my skills by developing forecasting models for the stock and bond markets, achieving a notable R² value of 0.8, and implementing machine learning models for informed trading decisions. I am passionate about using data to drive decision-making and innovation in the financial sector. My technical skills, coupled with my ability to turn data into actionable insights, make me a valuable asset in any data-driven environment.
