That Netflix Contestant Has One of the Highest-Paying Jobs in Tech

So I was watching Single’s Inferno with my fiancée when this guy Samuel walked in and casually dropped that he's a quant trader on Wall Street. The other contestants had NO idea what that meant... but I immediately knew this guy probably makes more than everyone else on the show COMBINED. I had to pause the show and look him up on LinkedIn. What I found was absolutely insane. In this video, I break down:- Who Samuel (Lee Seung Hun) actually is and his career path- How he went from Google engineer to Jump Trading quant trader- EXACTLY how much money he's probably making (it's wild)- Why quant trading pays WAY more than FAANG companies- What quant traders actually do all day- How software engineers can break into quant trading roles Quick Stats:Education: UC Berkeley Computer SciencePrevious: Software Engineer at Amazon, Google, SnowflakeCurrent: Quant Trader at Jump Trading (one of the most elite prop trading firms)Estimated Comp: $500K-$750K minimum (potentially mid-7 figures in a good year)While other contestants are hoping for protein powder sponsorships, this guy is making $500/hour just doing math. If you're a software engineer wondering how to level up your career and earnings, this is the path most people don't talk about. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
