About the Role
Join our dynamic Trading Desk Operations Engineering (TDOE) team at Jane Street, where your technical, organizational, and communication skills will shine in a fast-paced trading environment. As a key member of our team, you will help build and maintain the critical desk infrastructure that supports the trading of thousands of financial products across 200 venues in over 45 countries.
In your role as a Trading Desk Operations Engineer, you will manage various operational aspects of trading activities and collaborate with different teams within the firm to ensure accuracy and efficiency in our processes. You will work closely with traders and developers on projects that include:
- Optimizing infrastructure and operational workflows
- Supporting trading systems by executing data queries and liaising with stakeholders
- Designing and implementing innovative solutions for trading and operational challenges
- Communicating with clearing firms and external counterparties for trade settlement
Our trading desks foster a collaborative office culture, and we believe in a hands-on, interactive onboarding experience. You will receive mentorship from seasoned TDOEs, traders, and developers, participating in various development and training programs during your initial months. While a finance background is not mandatory, we seek curious individuals who enjoy tackling complex problems. Your ability to think critically and learn quickly is more important to us than your current knowledge base.
The hands-on nature of this role allows you to create tools that streamline our operations and enhance trade efficiency. You will leverage your technical skills, organizational acumen, and collaborative mindset to deliver smart, innovative solutions that elevate our trading capabilities.
We are open to fresh perspectives and believe that great ideas can come from anywhere. As you gain experience and proficiency, your impact within the firm will only grow.
