IMO 2017 Bronze Medallist Representing CyprusSoftware Developer At Broctagon Prime Ltd (FX/CFD Liquidity Provider), 2024-2025Software Developer At Amdocs, 2018-2024MPhil Computer Science, University Of Cambridge

I'm a full-stack software developer at SmartSea Ltd. Over the years I've acquired work experience in various programming languages and technologies, primarily Python, C++, Linux, Github, Docker and SQL. I've worked mostly as a back-end developer where I was involved heavily with API building applications. In my current role I work on a low-code platform called Mendix for the fast development of a new application related to ship management. This involves both Back-end and Front-end engineering. I consider myself a fast learner who usually adapts easily to new environments and always enjoys new challenges.

Andreas Theocharous is a Cyprus-based software developer. He competed for Cyprus at the International Mathematical Olympiad in 2017, winning a bronze medal, and at the International Olympiad in Informatics in 2014. He studied Computer Science at the University of Sheffield (BSc, 2014-2017) and the University of Cambridge (MPhil, 2017-2018). His professional roles in Limassol, Cyprus comprise Software Developer at Amdocs (2018-2024), Software Developer at Broctagon Prime Ltd, an FX/CFD liquidity provider (2024-2025), and Full Stack Developer at SmartSea, a SITA and Columbia Shipmanagement maritime-technology venture (2025-present).

Notes
  • Quant employment verification: CONFIRMED. The subject held an actual full-time role as Software Developer at Broctagon Prime Ltd (domain broprime.com) from 2024 to 2025. Broctagon Prime is a Cyprus-based institutional liquidity provider dealing in spot FX, commodities and CFDs (company site), so it is a trading/market-making firm in the electronic FX/CFD space, not merely a company whose name contains 'quant'. Identity is supported by a coherent profile: LinkedIn education (BSc Computer Science, Sheffield 2014-2017; MPhil Computer Science, Cambridge 2017-2018) and Limassol location match the Cyprus IMO 2017 contestant timeline, and the Broctagon Prime employer is corroborated by an independent Company index record for the same name/domain. Caveat: the role itself was software engineering rather than a quantitative research/trading-desk seat, and the employer is an FX/CFD liquidity provider rather than a hedge fund or bank quant desk; classification as trading/market-making rests on the firm's liquidity-provision business. Other employers (Amdocs, telecom software; SmartSea, maritime technology JV) are not finance firms.2025
  • Broctagon Prime Ltd (domain broprime.com) describes itself as a liquidity provider specialising in spot FX, commodities and CFDs for institutional clients, i.e. a trading/market-making firm in the electronic FX/CFD space; the Cyprus role was Software Developer.2025
  • Represented Cyprus at the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO) 2017, ranked 188th overall (69.6th percentile) with 17 points and awarded a bronze medal (award code B).Jul 2017
  • Employer timeline on LinkedIn (index-backed enrichment): Software Developer at Amdocs 2018-2024 (6 yrs), Software Developer at Broctagon Prime Ltd 2024-2025 (1 yr), Full Stack Developer at SmartSea 2025-present, all in Limassol, Cyprus.2025
  • Identity match: the LinkedIn subject (software developer in Limassol, Cyprus; BSc Computer Science Sheffield 2014-2017 then MPhil Computer Science Cambridge 2017-2018) is consistent with the Cyprus IMO 2017 contestant, who would have finished secondary school around 2014 and started university then; the match is inferred from the shared Cyprus origin and the aligned education timeline, not from a page that states the Olympiad participation, so it remains an inference rather than primary-source confirmation.2025
  • Education timeline (index-backed): BSc Computer Science, University of Sheffield 2014-2017, then MPhil Computer Science, University of Cambridge 2017-2018; the Cambridge and Sheffield CS dates bracket a Cyprus schooling through 2014.2018
  • Competed for Cyprus at the International Olympiad in Informatics (IOI) 2014, ranked 228th with a score of 103/600.Jul 2014
  • SmartSea is a maritime technology joint venture founded via the collaboration between SITA and Columbia Shipmanagement, headquartered in Cyprus; it is not a financial-trading firm, so this employer does not bear on the quantitative-finance question.2024
  • LinkedIn enrichment (index-backed) lists work history as SmartSea, Broctagon Prime Ltd and Amdocs, with an MPhil in Computer Science from Cambridge and a BS in Computer Science from Sheffield.
  • A 2017 Cambridge students-union statement by a Cyprus 'Andreas Theocharous' describes a first-year Engineering undergraduate, which does not match this subject's Computer Science MPhil at Cambridge in the same period, so that document is treated as a different individual and not used as identity evidence.
  • A Cambridge students' union Council of the School of Technology statement identifies an Andreas Theocharous from Cyprus as a first-year undergraduate in Engineering; identity not yet confirmed to be the same person.
