About the Role
Jane Street is seeking a highly motivated FIX Onboarding and Connectivity Engineer to enhance our proprietary trading capabilities and client-facing trading operations. In this pivotal role, you will engage in the technical processes that empower our trading desks to access a diverse range of products and exchanges, while also facilitating the onboarding of external clients for trading with Jane Street. You will collaborate closely with our trading teams to drive business growth and partner with our technology teams to develop cutting-edge connectivity systems.
At Jane Street, we foster a culture of learning and knowledge-sharing. While experience with FIX and other electronic trading protocols is welcome, we are eager to provide you with the specific training required to excel in our trading and technology environments.
The majority of your responsibilities will revolve around onboarding and connectivity projects for both proprietary and client-facing trading initiatives. This involves prioritizing requests from trading desks, collaborating with developers, infrastructure engineers, and external stakeholders, and overseeing the onboarding process from inception to production. You will serve as a crucial link between our clients, trading teams, and technology teams, which will require excellent communication and coordination skills. Additionally, you should be comfortable using the Unix command line and developing code to deliver these projects successfully.
We expect you to maintain a thoughtful and empathetic perspective on team dynamics and collaboration, suggesting improvements and promoting best practices. Your insights into project management and interdepartmental interactions will be highly valued.
