About the Position

We are looking for a skilled analyst to join an expanding subgroup within our Finance team who can help us manage and improve many of our daily activities and processes. We don’t require any finance background or other particular experience—we care more about your curiosity, enthusiasm, and how you think and learn.

Members of our Financial Resource Management group, like the rest of Jane Street, are critical thinkers and problem solvers. We are ultimately responsible for managing the capital base the firm uses for trading. Much of what we do is constrained optimization – working with and providing costs to trading desks, managing our positions across providers subject to a vast set of limits and constraints, and strategizing how to support future growth. We’re also responsible for the modeling, monitoring, and operational processes that enable it.

In this role, you’ll work closely with colleagues within the group, with other teams throughout the firm, and with external counterparties - taking on responsibilities including:

  • Monitoring the firm’s capital usage systems, including triaging, escalating, and actioning alerts
  • Translating qualitative recommendations into system configuration and parameter changes
  • Reconciling internal and external margin models, including liaising with our external counterparts
  • Executing various funding and financing trades - such as FX balance management, equity position financing, and funding treasuries
  • Operating firm-wide position management systems that shape our book based on various costs and constraints
  • Maintaining and improving desk infrastructure by automating workflows, building new monitoring and visualization tools, and supporting ad-hoc requests from the team

There is ample room for growth in this position. As you gain experience in day-to-day operations, you'll independently make high-value, time-sensitive decisions, take increased responsibility for key processes, and design and implement long-term improvements. You’ll begin to think through how we prepare and respond to exceptional events and market volatility.

About You

  • 1+ years of professional experience in a quantitative or technical role
  • Interested in working in a role focused on day-to-day processes and real-time monitoring
  • Proactive, organized, and thorough, with a keen attention to detail
  • Able to learn quickly, follow policies and procedures, and show good judgement under pressure
  • Familiar with Excel and basic programming techniques (in any language), and willing to learn Python and SQL
  • Numerate and comfortable taking a quantitative approach to make decisions
  • Curious and eager to ask questions, admit mistakes, and continuously improve
  • A strong verbal and written communicator, comfortable building strong relationships with external partners

Note: You’ll be required to take the registration exams needed to obtain a series license upon starting.
