We’re looking for a software engineer who is passionate about front-end development, user-interface design, and typed functional programming. You would take part in the design and implementation of our next-generation of browser-based tools for operating our trading infrastructure.

We’re building for expert users, which means we want to maintain a high UX bar, and at the same time create tools that are flexible and powerful enough to satisfy the needs of deeply engaged users.

Beyond working on the individual tools, we want someone who can find opportunities to create libraries and abstractions that capture common interaction idioms, and to sharpen our development practices and firm-wide approach to UI development.

We’re looking to add someone with a particular mix of skills and experience:

The role will provide opportunities to work in multiple parts of the stack, including front-ends, back-ends, middleware, and databases. The job will also involve working closely with traders and other end-users to better understand their needs.

Fluency in English is required

Palpable Score

87
/ 100
Jane Street offers unusually strong early-career access through recurring internships and multiple entry programs, backed by clear pay transparency and high compensation. The strongest signals are hands-on training, mentorship, and real project ownership for interns and new grads, plus benefits that reduce early-career financial stress. The main limiter is that Jane Street does not publish cohort outcomes like promotion rates or internship-to-full-time conversion rates, so outcomes scoring relies on indirect public signals.
