We're looking for people who have a deep interest in and understanding of software and technology. We're not looking for experience with financial markets --- that's something we believe we can teach people on the job. Jane Street is deeply committed to functional programming, having the largest team of OCaml programmers in any industrial setting, and probably the world's largest OCaml codebase. We use OCaml for running our entire business, supporting everything from research to systems administration to trading systems. If you're interested in seeing how functional programming plays out in the real world, there's no better place than here. The atmosphere is informal and intellectual. There is a focus on education, and people get a chance to learn both about software and about trading. The work is challenging, and you get to see the practical impact of your efforts in quick and dramatic terms. Jane Street is also a small enough place that people have the freedom to get involved in many different areas of the business. Compensation is highly competitive, with a great deal of room for growth. If you'd like to learn more, here are some links. You can get an overview of the firm from our website: http://janestreet.com There's a talk I gave at CMU a while back that gives a good overview of what Jane Street does and why we use OCaml: http://ocaml.janestreet.com/?q=node/61 We also have an OCaml blog: http://ocaml.janestreet.com There are also a couple of papers we've written about our experiences here using functional languages. http://www.janestreet.com/technology/articles.php If you're interested, send me a resume and cover letter. y
