Notes
  • Quant employment verification: UNRESOLVED. The only employment evidence is a single LinkedIn profile snapshot (index-only), listing WorldQuant Senior Quantitative Researcher (2022-2024, Taipei), WorldQuant Data Science Intern (2021, Taipei) and Jane Street Quantitative Trader (2020, Hong Kong SAR). Both employers are genuine quantitative finance firms: WorldQuant is a quantitative investment/asset manager (worldquant.com) and Jane Street is a quantitative trading firm (janestreet.com). No primary employer source (careers page, team page, press, or the individual's own web presence) independently corroborates any of these roles, and the link between the IMO identity and this LinkedIn profile is not primary-confirmed, so the claim is recorded as unresolved rather than confirmed.Sep 17, 2026
  • LinkedIn (index snapshot) lists three roles at two quantitative firms: WorldQuant (internship 2021, then Senior Quantitative Researcher 2022-2024) and Jane Street (Quantitative Trader 2020). Two WorldQuant stints bracketing a Jane Street internship, all in the same quant-trading space, indicate a quant-track career rather than a single student program.Sep 17, 2026
  • Education: Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST), 2018-2022, per the LinkedIn profile snapshot.Jul 1, 2022
  • A person named Tien-Chun Cheng represented Taiwan at the International Mathematical Olympiad in 2015, 2016 and 2017, per the IMO Taiwan hall of fame (indexed by IMO). This establishes the Olympiad identity but does not by itself tie it to the WorldQuant/Jane Street LinkedIn profile.Jul 1, 2017
  • Location: Kaohsiung, Taiwan per the LinkedIn snapshot, while the WorldQuant roles were based in Taipei and the Jane Street role in Hong Kong SAR.Sep 17, 2026
