- Quant employment verification: CONFIRMED. Juan Carlos Sigler Priego has held an actual software engineering role at Jane Street (quantitative trading firm / market maker) since June 2024, per his LinkedIn profile (enrichment index record keyed to linkedin.com/in/jcsiglerp; location New York). Identity is supported: the same name, ITAM education and Mexico City base match the IOI 2017 Mexican contestant and the ICPC contestant. Employer classification: Jane Street is a quantitative trading firm, so the role is in the quantitative-finance sector, but it is a software engineering role, not a quant research/trading role. Caveat: the sole employment evidence is the LinkedIn profile surfaced via the enrichment index; no independent primary-source (company page) confirmation was obtained, and LinkedIn could not be scraped directly.
