In 2026, Spain’s Royal Academy of Engineering elected him an International Member, a lifetime distinction held by only 71 scientists worldwide, "for pioneering engineering methods that solve complex financial problems." In 2024, His Majesty King Felipe VI and the Government of Spain appointed him Knight Officer of the Royal Order of Civil Merit, "for distinguished services to science and the global investment industry." He is currently Global Head of Quantitative R&D at the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority (ADIA), one of the largest sovereign wealth funds; a founding board member of ADIA Lab, Abu Dhabi's center for research in data and computational sciences; a Research Fellow at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, part of the U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Science; and Professor of Practice at Cornell University’s College of Engineering. The U.S. Congress has invited him to testify on AI policy, he is the named inventor on 15 patents, and the Social Science Research Network (SSRN) ranks him among the 10 most-read authors in Economics. He has published several influential graduate textbooks and more than 100 scientific journal articles with over 50 co-authors, including several Nobel laureates.
