Pedro Shinzato Chen
Pedro Shinzato Chen is a Brazilian competitive programmer and computer-engineering student at the Georgia Institute of Technology. He represented Brazil at the International Olympiad in Informatics in 2021 and 2022 (Bronze both years) and competed as Codeforces handle 'peuch' (Master, max rating 2228) from Colégio Etapa in São Paulo. His public work record lists a short 2022 Quantitative Developer role at XP Inc. alongside hardware and software internships at Micron Technology and TRVLR, and teaching/operations roles at Georgia Tech.
- Quant employment verification: CONFIRMED. LinkedIn/index shows an actual short professional role — Quantitative Developer at XP Inc., May-Aug 2022 (São Paulo) — performing quantitative development (Monte Carlo simulation optimization in C++, GoLang API unit tests). XP Inc. (xpinc.com) is Brazil's largest independent financial-services/brokerage company, i.e. an investment-firm employer, so the role is a quantitative-finance role rather than a student program. Identity is supported by the LinkedIn name/field (Computer Engineering @ Georgia Tech) plus the Brazilian/São Paulo alignment with the IOI identity. Caveat: the role rests on the LinkedIn index (index-only, not independently primary-source confirmed), and XP is a brokerage/investment platform rather than a dedicated market-maker or hedge fund.Aug 2022
- Career timeline carries a short 2022 Quantitative Developer role at XP Inc. (São Paulo, May-Aug 2022): index lists unit tests in GoLang and optimization of Monte Carlo simulations in C++ — quantitative development work; the role predates his Georgia Tech enrollment (2022) and reads as a pre-college internship at a Brazilian investment platform.May 2022
- Identity anchor: Pedro Shinzato Chen is a Brazilian competitive programmer, IOI 2021 and 2022 contestant for Brazil (Bronze medal both years per cphof timeline); cphof cross-links his Codeforces handle 'peuch' to his IOI profile, and Codeforces lists 'peuch' as Pedro Chen, from Colégio Etapa, São Paulo, Brazil (Master, max rating 2228).
- cphof IOI timeline: IOI 2021 (25 Jun 2021) rank 114-118, Bronze, score 252/600; IOI 2022 (15 Aug 2022) rank 124, Bronze, score 210.03/600.Aug 15, 2022
- LinkedIn (index-only) profile /in/peuch: 'Pedro Shinzato Chen', headline 'Computer Engineering @ Georgia Tech', located Atlanta, Georgia; education Georgia Institute of Technology, Bachelor of Engineering, Computer Engineering (2022-2026). Index-only, not independent primary-source confirmation.2022
- IBERO informatica record: Pedro Shinzato Chen (Brazil) took Gold in 2021 (Rank 11, score 138) and Rank 1 Gold in 2022 (score 400); corroborates the Olympiad identity.
- Non-finance roles on the LinkedIn index: DRAM Cloud Engineering Intern at Micron Technology (Boise, 2025, 125 ARM-based Nvidia Grace servers); Software Engineer Internship at TRVLR (Santa Barbara, 2024); Tutor and Laboratory Teaching Assistant at Georgia Tech ECE (2024-2025); Building Supervisor at Georgia Tech (2023-2025). Micron/software roles suggest a hardware/systems breadth, not a finance-only trajectory.
- Colégio Etapa (São Paulo) blog reported Pedro Shinzato Chen passed the international admissions for Computer Engineering at Georgia Tech in the 2022 cycle.
- TRVLR is a travel-payments/data startup (Santa Barbara) — the 2024 SWE internship there is not quantitative finance; useful only as software-engineering evidence.
- Escavador academic record lists Pedro Shinzato Chen with Colégio Etapa (ensino fundamental 2017-2018, ensino médio 2019-) and 'experiência na área de Matemática', an independent Brazilian public-records corroboration of the São Paulo schooling.
- No personal website, X/Twitter, or public GitHub account tied to this Pedro Shinzato Chen was found; the only public code footprint is the Codeforces handle 'peuch'.
