Louis Guigo

Engineer & builder

I was born in Saint-Malo, Brittany, . After a few years in Paris, I studied Computer Science at Ensimag in Grenoble, then Financial Mathematics at NYU’s Courant Institute.

I got into quantitative research during a 2018 internship at Bloomberg, working on data-driven tools and quantitative models for derivative markets. After graduating, I joined Morgan Stanley’s equity exotics desk, developing systematic investment strategies and the technology supporting them - mostly in Python and Java.

I now work at the intersection of markets, math, and software - where building fast and solving complex problems matter. Outside work, I like to experiment with new tools and ideas at the edge of tech and finance, stay active, and spend time with my family (and our dog, Umi).

I have a soft spot for anything with motion - motorcycles, small planes, or code. I’m drawn to structure, feedback, and the quiet beauty of working systems.
