Metehan Ozsoy
Metehan Ozsoy is a quantitative researcher based in Los Angeles, California. He represented Turkiye at the International Mathematical Olympiad in 2005 (bronze medal) and 2006 (silver medal). He holds a BS in Mathematics from Bogazici University, an MS in Mathematics from the University of California, Irvine, and an MS in Computer Science from California State University-Long Beach, and he studied mathematics as a non-degree student at Columbia University. His professional record centers on Los Angeles Capital Management (LACM), a quantitative equity investment manager, where the indexed work history shows progression from Quantitative Research Analyst (2016) to Research Associate (2020) to Principal and Associate (2022); earlier roles include a Teaching Assistant position at UC Irvine and a Research Intern position at The University of Arizona.
- Quant employment verification: CONFIRMED. The profile carries an actual quantitative-finance role, not a student program: the indexed work history shows Metehan Ozsoy as Quantitative Research Analyst (2016-07 to 2020-01), then Research Associate (2020-01 to 2022-01), then Principal and Associate (2022-01, end uncertain) at Los Angeles Capital Management and its affiliate Los Angeles Capital Management and Equity Research, Inc. Employer classification: LACM's own site (lacapm.com) describes it as 'A Global Quantitative Equity Manager' with $34.3B firmwide AUM, i.e. a quantitative asset manager, so the roles sit in quantitative equity research rather than in a non-quant business. Identity is supported: the same LinkedIn profile that lists the LACM roles self-reports 'International Math Olympiad - Silver and Bronze medals' matching the IMO 2005 bronze and IMO 2006 silver records for Turkiye, with matching Los Angeles location and a Bogazici mathematics degree. Caveat: the employment record is sourced from the LinkedIn profile and the caller-provided index (index-only), not from an independent primary source; no LACM team/press page naming him was found, and the most recent role's end date and current employment status are not confirmed.Sep 2026
- Won a silver medal (22 points, rank 76) for Turkiye at IMO 2006 in Ljubljana and a bronze medal (17 points) at IMO 2005; the LinkedIn profile that carries the Los Angeles Capital Management roles self-reports 'International Math Olympiad - Silver and Bronze medals', which ties the Olympiad identity to this professional profile rather than leaving it a bare namesake match.Jul 2006
- Employer classification verified against primary source: Los Angeles Capital Management (lacapm.com) is a global quantitative equity manager (founded 2002) with $34.3B in firmwide assets under management as of June 30, 2026, so Metehan Ozsoy's research roles there fall squarely in quantitative equity investment management rather than in an unrelated business.Jun 2026
- Index-derived work history lists roles at both 'Los Angeles Capital Management LLC' and 'Los Angeles Capital Management and Equity Research, Inc.', which are the same firm's operating and affiliate entities, so the two company names in the leads represent a single continuous employer rather than a job change. No second independent quant employer surfaced in search.Sep 2026
- Education spans two mathematics degrees and a computer science degree at four institutions: BS Mathematics (Bogazici University), MS Mathematics (University of California, Irvine), MS Computer Science (California State University-Long Beach), and non-degree study in Mathematics at Columbia University - a quantitative/technical academic track consistent with his quantitative research work.Sep 2026
- Insight-day / camp / scholarship signals were checked and excluded: searches surfaced AlphaStar Academy math and CS camps and Bilkent 'Problem of the Month' pages only as name-adjacent noise, not as evidence of programs the subject attended, so no student-program item is credited as employment.Jan 2022
