• Quant employment verification: CONFIRMED. The LinkedIn/enrichment person record for linkedin.com/in/tomasingi lists a full-time role 'Quantitative Analyst, Commodities' at SEB in Stockholm beginning August 2024 - an employment role, not a student programme. SEB (sebgroup.com) is a Swedish universal bank whose Markets division runs commodities and FICC trading and publicly recruits quantitative-analyst roles, so the employer qualifies as quantitative finance rather than merely carrying a 'quant' name. Identity is supported by the matching name, Icelandic IMO background, and KTH + University of Iceland education. Caveat: the role rests on the LinkedIn profile record returned by the person index and could not be independently confirmed from a SEB-owned page or press item (the live LinkedIn page returned 403 to scraping); the index is not treated here as independent primary-source confirmation.Aug 2024
• LinkedIn education: MSc in Machine Learning at KTH Royal Institute of Technology and two University of Iceland bachelor's degrees (Computer Science and Mathematics) - a maths/CS foundation matching both the olympiad history and the quant-analyst role.2024
