• Quant employment verification: CONFIRMED. Tarush Goyal holds a past/present Quantitative Researcher role at Graviton Research Capital LLP (gravitontrading.com), a Gurugram-based proprietary high-frequency trading firm that describes itself as trading 'across all asset classes' via in-house low-latency execution strategies - a genuine quantitative trading employer, not a firm merely named 'quant'. The role is listed on his LinkedIn profile with start 2022-07 and no end date (current as of the profile), and LinkedIn enrichment via the person index independently returns 'Quantitative Researcher at Graviton Research Capital'. He also held a 2021 Research Internship on the ABS (asset-backed securities) team at D. E. Shaw India Private Limited (deshawindia.com), the India arm of the D. E. Shaw group, a quantitative/technology-driven hedge fund. Both are actual roles, not student programs. Identity is supported: the same LinkedIn (tarush-goyal-704a9b18b) carries the IMO 2017 India and IIT Bombay CSE signals, tying the profile to the IMO participant.
• IMO 2017: represented India and was placed 442nd (28.3%) with an Honourable Mention, 11 points (P1 7, P2 3, P4 1); the India team ranked 52nd overall, led by Chudamani R. Pranesachar. Corroborates the Olympiad identity anchor used for this profile.2017
• Graviton Research Capital LLP is a genuine quantitative trading employer: its own site describes a high-frequency trading firm operating across all asset classes with in-house backtesting infrastructure and ultra-low-latency trading platforms; TheOrg lists the industry as Trading & Exchanges, HQ Gurgaon.
• D. E. Shaw India Private Limited (deshawindia.com) is the India entity of the D. E. Shaw group; its site describes work 'at the intersection of finance and technology', supporting classification of the 2021 ABS-team internship as a quantitative-finance role.
• AIR-16 in JEE Advanced 2018 and admission to IIT Bombay Computer Science; the LinkedIn headline itself states 'CSE @ IIT Bombay - AIR-16 : JEE Advanced'. Education: BTech Computer Science, IIT Bombay, 2018-2022.2018
• Named in a March 2017 Tribune India report on the Indian National Mathematical Olympiad (INMO); the Olympiad pathway predates and is separate from his later finance roles.Mar 1, 2017
• Pre-quant software/ML roles while at IIT Bombay: Machine Learning Engineer at Vedantu (2019), Python Developer at Praktice.ai (2019-2020), Full Stack Engineer at Yschool (2020) - early engineering work distinct from the later finance roles (index-sourced, from LinkedIn enrichment).
• Only index/aggregator 'Graviton' directory pages (TheOrg, SignalHire) surfaced in search and none names Tarush Goyal individually; the Graviton employment rests on his LinkedIn profile plus index enrichment, not on independent third-party primary confirmation.
• The 'Tarush Goyal' software-engineer portfolio at tarush-goyal.vercel.app (CommerceIQ, AskIITians, Synk) belongs to a DIFFERENT Tarush Goyal (SWE-II at Wayfair), not the IMO/IIT-Bombay quant; kept only to avoid mis-attribution.
