Tristan Kelley, CFA

As part of a recent restructuring at Newell Brands, my role was eliminated. I’m grateful for the impact I made over the last two years; from managing FX exposure and cash flow strategy to supporting capital markets initiatives and improving treasury operations.
I’m now open to new roles in Treasury, Capital Markets, FX Risk Management, ALM, or broader finance roles where I can bring my experience in financial modeling, liquidity strategy, and cross-functional leadership.
If you know of opportunities or teams hiring, I’d truly appreciate any leads or connections. Happy to connect with anyone working in these areas or share more about my background.

Thanks to everyone who has reached out already I'm excited for what’s next.

I’m open to roles in the DC area, NYC, or remote.

Management in Times of War

In our recent project translating "Management In Times of War" into English, a pivotal element was the integration of LangChain, a cutting-edge language model toolchain. This sophisticated technology played a crucial role in enhancing our translation process, bringing together the best of both human expertise and advanced AI.

LangChain's capabilities were instrumental in streamlining complex linguistic tasks. Its architecture, designed to facilitate a seamless interaction between different language models, allowed us to handle diverse aspects of the translation process more efficiently. By leveraging LangChain, we were able to integrate various AI models, each excelling in specific linguistic functions such as semantic analysis, context understanding, and syntactic accuracy. This enabled a more nuanced and accurate translation, closely aligned with the intricacies of both Ukrainian and English languages and using the combined strengths of different AI models while integrating human oversight. The toolchain allowed us to create a feedback loop where initial translations generated by AI were reviewed and refined by our bilingual experts. This collaborative human-in-the-loop approach ensured that the final translation was not only linguistically precise but also culturally and contextually relevant.

LangChain's modular design also enabled us to customize the translation process according to the specific requirements of our project. This level of customization was vital in maintaining the original tone and message of the book while ensuring the translation's accuracy and readability.

Moreover, LangChain facilitated an efficient management of large volumes of text. Its ability to process and analyze extensive data at remarkable speeds significantly accelerated our translation timeline without compromising quality. This efficiency was crucial in meeting our project deadlines and maintaining a high standard of output.
