About the Role

Our goals are to give you a real sense of what it's like to work as a Quantitative Trader at Jane Street while also providing a truly unparalleled educational experience.

During the internship, your work is reinforced with intensive classes, workshops, and team-based mock trading sessions. You'll have the opportunity to participate in one "elective" based on your interests, including Machine Learning and Data Science, Algorithmic Trading and Market Microstructure, or Trading Strategy and Scenarios.
