Notes
  • Quant employment verification: UNRESOLVED. Indexed work history and the caller-supplied lead both record a role as 'Quantitative Researcher' at WorldQuant Research (Thailand), 2017-2018 (caller lead adds exact dates 2017-03 to 2018-05). WorldQuant LLC operates in quantitative asset management, so the named employer is a genuine quant-finance firm. However the role is known ONLY from index/LinkedIn-derived (aggregator-type) data: no independent primary source (company page, filing, press item, authored post) was found naming him as a WorldQuant employee, and the exact dates could not be corroborated. Identity is well supported (Thailand/Bangkok, Chulalongkorn CS/CE 2002-2006, IOI 2002, matching software-engineering career), so the person is not in doubt; the documentary support for the WorldQuant role is. No other quant-trading employer appears in his history.
  • Employer classification: WorldQuant = quantitative asset manager (qualifies as quant finance); Agoda = online travel (not quant); Thomson Reuters = information services (not quant trading); IT One and LTMAN are not quantitative-trading firms. His only quant-finance-linked role is the indexed WorldQuant one.
  • IOI 2002 was held in Yong-In, South Korea; Lamsam scored 205/600, ranked 81st absolute (71st percentile), earning a bronze medal for Thailand - the same year he began a Computer Engineering degree at Chulalongkorn University.Aug 25, 2002
  • Competed for Thailand at IOI 2002 (Yong-In, South Korea), earning a bronze medal with score 205/600 and absolute rank 81 of 276.
  • Topcoder handle 'Piyawat.Lamsam' with an algorithm rating of 1080, corroborating a competitive-programming background.
