- Quant employment verification: UNRESOLVED. Index (LinkedIn-derived) lists Researcher and Head of Research at Optiver and Head of Research at Da Vinci Derivatives, but this is an aggregator/index claim pending primary-source confirmation; identity rests on a name-variant match (Tejaswi N / Tejaswi Navilarekallu) against the roster name N.Venkataramana Tejaswi.2026
- Identity link: the roster name 'N.Venkataramana Tejaswi' (IMO 1998, India) is asserted to correspond to mathematician Tejaswi Navilarekallu; the connecting evidence is a CV that is not yet independently read here, so the Olympiad identity remains a medium-confidence lead rather than confirmed.1998
- Served as Coordinator and Problem Selection staff for EGMO 2020 (European Girls' Mathematical Olympiad), credited as Tejaswi 'TJ' Navilarekallu - a direct, primary-source tie to the Olympiad/mathematics-education ecosystem.2020
- PhD in Mathematics, California Institute of Technology, 2006; dissertation 'On the Equivariant Tamagawa Number Conjecture', advisor Matthias Flach (Mathematics Genealogy Project, MGP ID 98962).2006
