Stanislav Slavov

Bulgarian mathematician and quantitative researcher. Silver medalist for Bulgaria at the International Mathematical Olympiad 2016 (total 26, rank 68). MS in Operations Research from MIT (2020-2022), with a master's thesis on causal inference under heterogeneous effects and non-stationary environments. Before MIT he researched machine-learning methods for company industry classification at Ontotext in Sofia (2019). His MIT Operations Research advisor lists his first position after the MS as Quantitative Researcher at Man Numeric, a Boston-based systematic equity manager (Man Group); the ClickHouse/LinkedIn index additionally lists him as Quantitative Analyst (Quant Macro) at Brevan Howard from June 2024.

• Quant employment verification: CONFIRMED. Stanislav Slavov holds an actual quantitative-finance role: his MIT Operations Research advisor's page lists him (MS at MIT ORC, 2020-2022) with 'First position: Quantitative Researcher at Man Numeric', and Man Numeric is a Boston-based quantitative equity investment manager and part of Man Group (man.com/numeric) - a genuine systematic/quant investor, not merely a name containing 'quant'. The ClickHouse index additionally lists current role Quantitative Analyst (Quant Macro) at Brevan Howard, a global macro hedge fund with a large quantitative analysis team (theorg.com lists him on its Quantitative Analysis team), starting 2024-06-01; the Brevan Howard role rests on index + aggregator evidence only, while the Man Numeric role is corroborated by a primary MIT source.Sep 17, 2026
• Identity anchored to IMO 2016 Bulgaria competitor Stanislav Slavov: the LinkedIn slug 'stanislav-i-slavov' and a Bulgarian math-high school background match the roster identity; LinkedIn profile states a July 2016 IMO silver medal (index-only on the medal until primary confirmation).Sep 17, 2026
• The index's 'employer classification lead' for Brevan Howard is corroborated as a genuine quant employer (global macro hedge fund with a dedicated Quantitative Analysis team of ~49 people per theorg); however no primary source independently places Slavov there, so the Brevan Howard employment is index+aggregator only, whereas Man Numeric is primary-corroborated by the MIT advisor page.Sep 17, 2026
• Index row lists current role Quantitative Analyst (Quant Macro) at Brevan Howard starting 2024-06-01, with past employers Man Numeric, MIT, Ontotext, Princeton McGraw Center, and the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences; these are index-only labels pending primary-source confirmation.Sep 17, 2026
• Timeline reads Cambridge -> Princeton -> MIT ORC (2020-2022) -> Man Numeric -> Brevan Howard (2024-06): the index lists four schools but only the MIT ORC degree (2022) is primary-confirmed, so the Cambridge/Princeton lines and their dates remain index-only; any claim of a specific quant role at a specific date before 2022 rests on the index alone.Sep 17, 2026
• Confirmed IMO 2016 silver medal for Bulgaria (problems 7-3-0-7-2-7, total 26, rank 68), matching the Olympiad roster identity the profile is anchored to.Jul 1, 2016
• MIT's 2022 Commencement graduates name book lists 'Stanislav Ivaylov Slavov' with the thesis 'Causal Inference: Heterogeneous Effects and Non-stationary Environments', which fixes his full legal name (middle name Ivaylov) and confirms the MIT ORC master's degree was awarded in 2022.Jun 1, 2022
• MIT Operations Research Center lists his master's thesis 'Causal Inference: Heterogeneous Effects and Non-stationary Environments' (May 2022), placing his MIT ORC degree at 2022 and dating his move into quantitative research shortly after.May 1, 2022
• Education spans Sofia High School of Mathematics, University of Cambridge, Princeton University, and MIT (Operations Research graduate study) - consistent with a 2016 high-school graduate.Sep 17, 2026
• Co-authored 'Company Industry Classification with Neural and Attention-Based Learning Models' (2019) while affiliated with the Department of Mathematics, AI trading as Ontotext, Sofia - a machine-learning role predating his MIT graduate study.Nov 1, 2019
• Lectured at the 2017 training camp for the 2017 International Mathematics Olympiad and served on the 2017 Junior Balkan Mathematics Olympiad jury (Bulgarian Academy of Sciences) - education/volunteer activity one year after competing, distinct from employment.Jan 1, 2017
