Machine Learning Engineer

We are looking for an engineer with robust experience in machine learning and strong mathematical foundations to join our growing ML team and to help drive the direction of our ML platform. Machine learning is a critical pillar of Jane Street's global business. Our ever-evolving trading environment serves as a unique, rapid-feedback platform for ML experimentation, allowing us to incorporate new ideas with relatively little friction.

Our ML team is full of people with a shared love for the craft of software engineering, and for designing APIs and systems that are delightful to use. We’ll rely on your in-depth knowledge of the ML ecosystem and understanding of varying approaches — whether it’s neural networks, random forests, gradient-boosted trees or sophisticated ensemble methods — to aid decision-making so we apply the right tool for the problem at hand. Your work will also focus on enhancing research workflows to tighten our feedback cycles.

Successful ML engineers will be able to understand the mechanics behind various modelling techniques, while also being able to break down the mathematics behind them. If you’ve never thought about a career in finance, you’re in good company. Many of us were in the same position before working here.
