• Quant employment verification: CONFIRMED. Nikola Danevski self-describes on his own GitHub profile ('Previously an intern at Millennium Management'), and the LinkedIn-index profile lists 'Software Engineer' at Millennium from 2021-06 to 2021-08, matching a 2021 summer internship; identity is corroborated by the same GitHub (SWE at Google, Honors BS CS @ University of Rochester, IMO x3). Millennium Management (mlp.com) is a global diversified multi-strategy alternative investment firm / hedge fund (~$97B AUM, 7,000+ employees) whose technology organization includes 'quant modelers'. Classification: the EMPLOYER is a hedge fund, qualifying as quant-finance-relevant employment, but the role in both sources is titled SOFTWARE ENGINEER / intern, not quant research, trading or market-making; no quant-research/trading role for this person was found.
• GitHub bio states 'Currently a SWE at Google. Previously an intern at Millennium Management. Education: Honors BS in CS @ University of Rochester. IMO x3 participant, 2HMs' - a first-person description independently corroborating the Google role, the Millennium internship, the Rochester degree and the IMO record.
• Millennium Management (mlp.com) describes itself as 'a global, diversified alternative investment firm' with 35+ years, $97BN+ AUM, 7,000+ employees and 360+ investment teams, and its technology page lists 'AI experts, software engineers, quant modelers and data scientists' - establishing the employer's quantitative-finance classification independent of the person.
• IMO record (North Macedonia): 2016 Honourable Mention, 15 points, rank 281 (53.5%); 2017 Honourable Mention, 12 points, rank 416 (32.5%); 2018 6 points, rank 441 (25.9%) - three participations, two Honourable Mentions, matching the GitHub bio 'IMO x3 participant, 2HMs'.
• Beyond the hedge-fund internship, no employment at any quantitative investment, trading, market-making or systematic/algorithmic trading firm was found; the other roles are big-tech software engineering (Google), a startup-analyst role (Antler), academic research, a teaching assistantship and a machine-learning internship.
