Jane Street

Jane Street is always looking for great new people to join our team. Due to Covid-19, we are predominantly working from home right now. We are actively interviewing, hiring and onboarding remotely. Although specific roles require specific skills, above all we’re looking for candidates who share our values:

  • Honesty, both personal and intellectual
  • A cooperative mindset, which often prioritizes helping your colleagues over your own direct work
  • Intellectual curiosity – relentlessly getting to the bottom of problems
  • Humility, including the ability to admit what you don’t know, and to acknowledge and learn from your mistakes
  • A quantitative approach to decision making and problem solving

Information about some of our perennially open positions and groups.

Quantitative Trading

Quantitative Traders work in teams to develop and execute strategies using a combination of data analysis and a deep understanding of how markets operate. Traders push into new business areas, investigate new products, optimize the execution of trades, and manage risk. Jane Street’s traders also adapt strategies to unexpected market conditions. For these roles, previous experience is not required. We’re more interested in how you think and learn than what you already know.

Technology

The technology group is actively hiring in many different areas. For all of these, no previous experience or coursework in finance, business, or economics is required. We’re more interested in how you think and learn than what you already know.

Quantitative Research

Researchers at Jane Street are responsible for building models, strategies, and systems that price and trade a variety of financial instruments. As a mix of the trading and software engineering roles, this work involves many things: analyzing large datasets, building and testing models, creating new trading strategies, and writing the code that implements them.

Institutional Services

Jane Street offers our unique liquidity and trade execution services to the largest institutional investors and asset managers in the world. Roles in Institutional Services are generally client-facing to some degree.

Infrastructure

Our infrastructure teams– Business Development, Operations, Finance, Tax, HR, Recruiting, Legal & Compliance, and Office Administration – are key to the firm’s success. Like nearly everyone else at Jane Street, they sit together on one trading floor, collaborating closely with each other to constantly improve the firm’s critical functions.
