A bit different from what most financial engineers are interested in, but I'm in the process of developing a linear programming model for the US tax code so you can do long term tax optimizations based on your financial profile and goals. It was a lot harder than I anticipated but got a PoC working recently. Ugly landing page at https://smarterpath.co

Signed up. I have been on working on something similar for my own use. Would be glad to chat with you. Email in my profile.

Signed up! Your site doesn't look that bad - I actually like the layout. If you don't mind sharing, what did you use to create the landing page?

Yup good ol' wordpress with the Contact Form 7 addon for the early access sign-up. Would like to do a redesign at some point to make the value prop more obvious, but getting a public beta out has been the priority recently.

Doesn't anyone use the "View Source" option in browsers? It's WordPress.
