Notes
  • UNRESOLVED. The profile index reports Daniel Atanasov as Quantitative Trader at Jane Street (London, 2021-present) and a Jane Street Summer (Trading) Intern in 2020; both are index-only claims with no primary-source company page, press item, or self-published page confirming them, and no independent primary source ties the LinkedIn profile to the Olympiad identity. Jane Street is a quantitative trading/market-making firm, so if the index is accurate the role is a genuine quant trading role and the 2020 summer internship is a real trading internship (not a student insight program). Verdict is UNRESOLVED because every employment claim rests on the profile index alone, which is not primary-source confirmation.Sep 2026
