Quantitative systems · research · debate
I’m Bhav Jain — a student at American Heritage Schools (Palm Beach Campus), Class of 2027. My work sits at the intersection of quantitative research, intelligent systems, and competitive argumentation: model safety & red-teaming, peer-reviewed NLP research, and national-level Congressional Debate.
I’m most interested in economics / quantitative finance / computer science: using rigorous math and careful evaluation to build systems that work under adversarial pressure — whether that’s in AI safety, trading research, or high-stakes debate.
BIO → AboutContract AI safety researcher and red-teamer. Passed technical screening and secured paid work testing frontier models; identified universal jailbreak-style vulnerabilities and helped drive mitigations pre-deployment.
LLM safety · adversarial testing · evaluation
Peer-reviewed NLP work on multi-persona interaction as a prompting method to improve logical reasoning in LLMs (vs. standard chain-of-thought baselines).
NLP · prompting · evaluation
Independently designed and engineered a novel bioplastic formulation and filed a full utility patent with the USPTO; currently responding to office action.
Materials engineering · experimentation · patent prosecution
Built and backtested systematic equity strategies in Python (momentum-driven signals, asymmetric risk construction), plus an end-to-end research workflow for iteration and evaluation.
Python · backtesting · statistics
Selected for model safety work; conducted adversarial testing and identified universal jailbreak-style vulnerabilities in sensitive domains; contributed to mitigations pre-deployment.
