Osama Alkhodairy is a computer science and mathematics student at the University of Waterloo and a competitive programmer who represented Egypt at the International Olympiad in Informatics in 2019, 2020 and 2021, winning bronze medals in 2020 and 2021. He has held engineering and research roles at Jane Street (Software Engineer, London, 2025), Axiom (ZK Engineer, 2024), Waabi (Machine Learning Researcher, 2025, research during study) and the University of Waterloo (Undergraduate Research Assistant, 2024). His public identities tie together across LinkedIn, GitHub, Codeforces and the IOI records. Employment history outside of the professional index is not independently confirmed by primary sources.

- Quant employment verification: UNRESOLVED. A commercial professional index lists a Software Engineer role at Jane Street (London, 2025); Jane Street is a quantitative trading firm, so if the index entry is accurate the role is quant finance. But the claim is index-only, not confirmed by any primary source, and the identity linkage rests on index profile matching, so the role, dates and title remain unverified. The other lead, Axiom, resolves to axiom.xyz (zero-knowledge proof infrastructure), not a quantitative finance firm; the third lead, Waabi, is autonomous-vehicle AI, also not quant. No bank, asset-manager, energy or crypto trading role was found. Conclusion withheld pending primary confirmation.
- Won a bronze medal representing Egypt at the 2021 International Olympiad in Informatics, one of two IOI bronze medals (2020, 2021).Jun 1, 2021
- Won a bronze medal representing Egypt at the 2020 International Olympiad in Informatics.Sep 1, 2020
- Index lists ZK Engineer at Axiom (axiom.xyz) in 2024; Axiom is a zero-knowledge proof infrastructure company for Ethereum, not a quantitative finance or trading firm.Jan 1, 2024
- Undergraduate at the University of Waterloo studying Computer Science and Mathematics; the LinkedIn profile headline reads 'CS and Math at UWaterloo' with location Waterloo, Ontario.
- Competitive-programming identity cross-confirmed: IOI stats page links the Codeforces handle Osama_Alkhodairy, matching the CP Hall of Fame profile for the same person.
- Index lists Machine Learning Researcher at Waabi in 2025; Waabi builds autonomous-vehicle AI, not a quant or trading firm.Jan 1, 2025
- Competed at IOI 2019 as part of Egypt's delegation before medaling in later years, listed at rank 169.Aug 1, 2019
- GitHub account github.com/OsamaAlkhodairy carries the competitive-programming username OsamaAlkhodairy and a low follower count (7), consistent with a personal code profile rather than a professional one.
