  • New York

Requirements

  • We don’t expect you to have a background in finance or any other specific field—we’re looking for smart people who enjoy solving interesting problems. We’re actually more interested in how you think and learn than what you currently know. You should be:
  • Graduating in 2025
  • Available to work 40 hours per week in person in our NYC office (approx. hours are 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. ET Monday - Friday)
  • Interested in learning about networking, scripting, or system administration
  • Eager to help people and solve problems; able to communicate clearly and respectfully
  • A reliable team player with a “no job too small” attitude
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment
  • Humble and unafraid to ask questions and admit mistakes
  • Able to analyze and deconstruct technical problems
  • Able to develop and maintain technical documentation
  • Knowledgeable in computer hardware components and how they interact with each other
  • Willing to take a hands-on approach to gain experience in diagnosing, troubleshooting, and resolving technical issues at the desktop, server, and network levels
  • Familiar with a scripting language, such as PowerShell or Bash (ideal but not required)
  • Fluency in English required

Responsibilities

  • We are hiring Summer 2024 IT Operations Engineer Interns for our New York office. If you are imagining a daily routine that involves making copies and watching as someone turns a computer off and back on, think again: this is not your typical IT internship.
  • We will train you as if you’re joining our full-time team of IT Operations Engineers who are responsible for the support, configuration, and operation of multiple systems across all of our technology stacks, including desktop engineering, network, and various application platforms.
  • You will help in a hands-on capacity as we make improvements to our office environment. This can include: responding to technology support requests, building and configuring Windows and Linux devices, supporting our Windows domain infrastructure, monitoring and supporting systems, and helping with projects to optimize the way we work using tools like PowerShell.
  • Our IT interns are friendly and collaborative problem-solvers who enjoy helping people. They are able to troubleshoot in real time and listen patiently to the end user, and are comfortable asking questions and admitting to mistakes. Our internships provide a great introduction to Jane Street and how we think about and solve problems across all teams. Often, successful interns have been invited to return for a full-time position after graduation.

Mission & Purpose

Jane Street works differently. As a liquidity provider and market maker, we trade on more than 200 trading venues across 45 countries and help form the backbone of global markets. Our approach is rooted in technology and rigorous quantitative analysis, but our success is driven by our people. Our bright, beautiful offices in the heart of New York, London, Hong Kong, and Amsterdam are open and buzzing with conversation. We come from many backgrounds and encourage travel between offices to share perspectives. Some of our best ideas come from bumping into a visiting colleague at the office coffee bar. Markets move fast. Staying competitive as we’ve grown has required constant invention—of new trading strategies, technology, and processes. We’ve found this is easier when you hire humble, kind people. They tend to help each other, and prioritize teamwork over titles. We invest heavily in teaching and training. There’s a library and a classroom in every office, because deepening your understanding of something is considered real work. Guest lectures, classes, and conferences round out the intellectual exchanges that happen every day. People grow into long careers at Jane Street because there are always new and interesting problems to solve, systems to build, and theories to test. More than twenty years after our founding, it still feels like we’re just getting started.
