The only Engineering who swapped algorithms for Candlesticks | CS Graduate | Full Time Stock Trader | Decoding markets, on chart at a time.

About

spent four years learning how systems work, how to break them down, find patterns, and build something meaningful from logic. Turns out, the stock market runs on the same principles. I’m Uzhair Shah, a Computer Science graduate who traded his IDE for a trading terminal. What started as curiosity during college slowly became a full-time pursuit, reading charts, managing risk, and developing the kind of discipline that no classroom teaches. What I bring from CS to the markets: ∙ A structured, analytical approach to decision-making ∙ Pattern recognition (charts aren’t that different from code) ∙ The ability to stay calm when systems behave unexpectedly I’m not here to get-rich-quick. I’m here to build a process, stay consistent, and grow — one trade at a time. If you’re a fellow trader, market enthusiast, or just someone curious about the intersection of tech and finance — let’s connect. Always open to conversations about markets, mindset, and the unconventional paths people take.

Work experience

Information Technology Lecturer at Al Mukeet, 2023 - Present · 3 yrs 9 mos, • Trained AI models by generating realistic conversation examples that modelled ideal user and AI behaviour, requiring careful thinking about context, intent, and potential misuse, much like how compliance analysts assess customer behaviour against expected patterns. • Evaluated AI outputs regularly for factual accuracy, safety alignment, and nuanced interpretation, building a consistent habit of structured risk assessment that maps directly to AML case analysis. • Conducted systematic stress testing to identify where models produced errors or unexpected results, using a methodical approach similar to how transaction monitoring rules are tested for false positives and coverage gaps. • Collaborated with AI researchers to document training sessions, flag issues, and refine methodologies, maintaining the kind of clean and consistent records required in regulatory reporting and SAR drafting.

Freelance Writer at Melissa Gillis Care, 2022 - 2023 · 1 yr, • Produced accurate and well-structured content for clients across technical and non-technical subjects, demonstrating the clear communication under pressure that compliance reporting demands. • Provided detailed editorial feedback on drafts for consistency, clarity, and factual accuracy, a skill directly applicable to reviewing compliance notices, internal memos, and regulatory submissions.
