# Szymon Kopyciński

Director

I'm one of the Directors at NEFS Quant this year, after being a Senior in 2025/2026. I'm a third year student. I spent 8 months interning at a small fund working on market data systems. I am currently a Site Reliability Engineer at CoreLatency, a startup bare metal cloud for trading and QR.

Professionally, I am interested in trading/high-throughput data/distributed systems, alongside trading infrastructure. I enjoy playing poker, skiing, cooking, and travelling. My VPIP when playing poker is something around 20%, which annoys my friends.
