2x ICPC World Finalist | IOI silver medalist. Slovak IOI 2021 silver medalist and 2x ICPC World Finalist; Computer Science and Mathematics at Charles University; Quant Analyst at algorithmic-trading firm Qminers (2022-2025); former Huawei SWE intern.

Adam Rajsky is a Slovak competitive-programming competitor and software/quantitative professional based in Prague, Czechia. He represented Slovakia at the International Olympiad in Informatics in 2021, winning a silver medal (ranked 60th, 318 points), and was a two-time ICPC World Finalist with Charles University (2021 and 2023). He studied Computer Science (Bachelor's, 2021-2024) and Mathematics with a focus on Probability (Master's, from 2024) at Charles University (MFF UK), where his bachelor's thesis concerned weak saturation processes in multipartite hypergraphs. He worked as a software-engineering intern at Huawei's Warsaw Research Center in 2022 and as a Quant Analyst at the Prague algorithmic-trading firm Qminers from 2022 to 2025.

Notes
  • Quant employment verification: CONFIRMED. Adam Rajsky held a role titled 'Quant Analyst' at Qminers (qminers.com) in Prague, dated 2022-2025 (~3 yrs) on his LinkedIn profile. Identity corroborated across four anchors: LinkedIn headline '2x ICPC World Finalist | IOI silver medalist'; IOI profile listing Adam Rajsky of Slovakia (IOI 2021 silver, rank 60); Charles University ICPC World Final teams; and a Codeforces profile naming him Slovakia/Charles University. Employer classification: Qminers' own site states 'We develop software for algorithmic trading' and 'We are making markets more efficient ... Market makers make money from the difference between the bid and ask price (the spread)' and that via partnership with a major US trading firm its software trades on global stock markets - a genuine algorithmic-trading/market-making firm, not merely a company whose name contains 'quant'. A Qminers video series ('Q_uestions with Adam Rajsky'; hashtag #career #algorithmictrading) further places him at the firm. Caveat: the LinkedIn role title/dates are index-sourced from his own profile; Qminers' quant-trading nature is primary-source confirmed from qminers.com.Aug 2025
  • Huawei internship: he worked as 'SWE intern (Warsaw Research Center)' at Huawei in 2022, in the Computing team on performance optimization, joining via Huawei's Central-European Competition Talent program - a real internship distinct from competitions. Huawei is a telecom/technology company, not a quantitative-finance employer.2022
  • IOI 2021: Adam Rajsky represented Slovakia and won a Silver medal, ranked 60th overall with 318 points.2021
  • Synthesis: his two documented non-competition roles - a Huawei performance-optimization SWE internship (2022) and a ~3-year Qminers Quant Analyst tenure (2022-2025) - ran partly in parallel while he was a full-time Charles University student, indicating both were student-period roles rather than post-graduation employment.
  • ICPC World Finals: he competed at ICPC 2021 World Finals (rank 71) and ICPC 2023 World Finals in Luxor, Egypt (rank 40) with Charles University teams - collegiate competitive programming, an achievement rather than a job.Apr 2024
  • Education: Bachelor's in Computer Science, Charles University (MFF UK), 2021-2024, and Master's in Mathematics (specialization Probability), Charles University, from 2024; he studied 'Obecne informatiky' (General Computer Science) per a colleague's description.2024
  • Bachelor's thesis 'Weak saturation processes in multipartite hypergraphs' proved that for every r-partite r-uniform hypergraph the normalized weak saturation number into the complete r-partite r-uniform hypergraph has a limit; the advisor frames it as a multipartite generalization of Shapira-Tyomkyn work proving a Tuza conjecture.2024
  • Qminers states it is 'making markets more efficient', trades global stock markets via a partnership with a major US trading firm, and namechecks FPGA hardware and 'a vast amount of high-quality data' - positioning it in low-latency algorithmic trading rather than as a generic software shop.
  • Won 1st place in section M5+M6 (Mathematical Structures) at SVOC 2024, the Czech national student scientific competition in mathematics and computer science, for 'Weak saturation processes in multipartite hypergraphs'. Qminers is listed among the competition's sponsors.May 2024
  • Charles University (Matfyz) publicly reported the team of Jiri Kalvoda, Josef Minarik and Adam Rajsky representing the university and the Czech Republic at the ICPC global finals in Luxor, Egypt, 14-19 April 2024.Apr 29, 2024
  • Qminers produced two staffed video features centred on him - 'Q_uestions with Adam Rajsky' and a Qminers Masterclass on low-latency systems - and the associated Qminers LinkedIn career/algorithmic-trading post describes him as a student with prior internships at multinational corporations. This is a recruiting/marketing signal, not evidence of motive or of a hiring mechanism.Apr 2024
  • IOI is a high-school competition and distinct from employment; it appears as an achievement, and no source links it causally to any hiring.2021
