Hey, I'm Nish Mistry.

I'm passionate about engineering solutions to difficult and quantitative problems.

My interests lie in the fields of software engineering, quantitative finance, machine learning, low-latency systems, and the intersection between them.

about me

I'm a fourth-year undergraduate Honors student at Northeastern University studying Computer Science and Economics.

Currently, I'm working as an AI Engineer Intern at Chewy, where I'm building an agentic customer segmentation and insights platform, leveraging LLMs, knowledge graphs, and traditional machine learning models.

I also serve as the Executive Vice President of Northeastern University Systematic Alpha, Northeastern's premier quantitative finance club. There, I lead a team of quantitative researchers and quantitative developers to find alpha using statistical methods and alternative data, build models, and engineer performant systems.

I'm always looking to meet new people -- feel free to reach out!
