• Quant employment verification: CONFIRMED. Tanish Patil's LinkedIn profile lists a Quantitative Trading Intern role at Jane Street (company_domain janestreet.com, London, UK, dates '2022'), described as a summer trading internship covering quantitative trading fundamentals and pricing financial instruments via historical data analysis and statistical modelling. Jane Street is a proprietary quantitative trading firm and market maker (financial services), so the employer is correctly classified as quantitative finance, not merely a name containing 'quant'. Identity is supported by the matching Swiss/IMO profile (Swiss Mathematical Olympiad teacher, IMO Switzerland 2017/2018/2019). The employment evidence is index/provider-derived from the LinkedIn profile and is index-only, not an independent primary-source confirmation. No other quant-finance roles appear; the EPFL/ETH roles are teaching assistantships and mathematical.olympiad.ch is coaching, none of which are quantitative finance.2022

• Multiple teaching assistantships before and during the master's: EPFL (Advanced Analysis I and Analysis I, 2020; Discrete Mathematics under Prof. Maryna Viazovska and Probability under Prof. Juhan Aru, 2021; Discrete Optimisation under Prof. Adam Marcus Wade and Discrete Mathematics, 2022) and ETH Zürich (Multivariate Analysis, 2023; Analysis 1 under Prof. Alessio Figalli, 2023-2024).2020-2024
• Listed a Scientific Mediator role at EPFL in 2025 - the most recent non-olympiad engagement on the profile, suggesting continued EPFL affiliation after the master's; index-only.2025
