Quantitative Researcher

Quantitative Researcher focuses on quantitative researchers to help us build models, strategies, and systems that price and trade financial instruments.

What the role involves

• Quantitative Researchers to help us build models, strategies, and systems that price and trade financial instruments.
• We work with petabytes of data, a computing cluster with hundreds of thousands of cores, and a growing GPU cluster containing tens of thousands of high-end GPUs.

Skills and requirements

• Most candidates will have experience with data science or machine learning, but ultimately, we’re more interested in how you think and learn, than what you currently know.
• PhD or other research experience is a plus.

Additional role context

• At Jane Street, our researchers, engineers, and traders sit a few feet away from each other and work together to train models, architect systems, and run trading strategies.
• We don’t believe in “one-size-fits-all” modeling solutions.
• We are open to and excited about applying all different types of statistical and ML techniques, from linear models to deep learning, depending on what best fits a given problem.
