Jane Street Capital (http://janestcapital.com) is a proprietary trading company located in Manhattan, and we're looking to hire developers interested in working on trading systems and infrastructure, all built in OCaml. Jane Street is an open and informal environment (you can wear shorts and a t-shirt to the office), and the work is technically challenging and wide-ranging. Pay is competitive, and we're a reasonably small company (around 100 employees), so advancement is pretty quick for someone who performs well. Here's what we're looking for (in no particular order): - Strong programming skills. Pretty much all of our programming is in OCaml, so being a solid Caml hacker is a big plus. Extra points for deep knowledge of OCaml internals and experience wrapping thorny libraries. But we're also interested in great programmers who we are convinced will be able to pick up OCaml quickly, so anyone with a high-level of proficiency with functional languages would be a good match. - A commitment to the practical. Our work is tightly integrated with our trading operation, and we work very hard to keep our work relevant. One of the big attractions of the job is the opportunity to apply serious ideas to real-world problems. - Great communication skills. We need people who can explain things clearly and cogently. - Strong mathematical and analytic skills. We want people who can solve difficult technical problems, and think clearly and mathematically about all sorts of problems. - Strong Unix/Linux skills --- We're looking for someone who knows their way around the standard Unix tools, can write makefiles, shell scripts, etc. We're also very interested in people with serious systems administration and architecture experience. If you're interested (or have any students you think might be a good match) and would be willing to relocate to New York, please send a cover-letter and resume to: yminsky@janestcapital.com And you can get more information about us here: http://www.janestcapital.com/ocaml.html Note for foreign applicants: it is never too early to apply! The quote for this year for H1-B visas is already filled, so the earliest possible hiring date is October 2007. -- Yaron Minsky
