  • Machine Learning Researcher

    Jane Street 4.4company rating

    Postdoctoral scholar job in New York, NY

    Our goals are to give you a real sense of what it's like to work at Jane Street full time as a Machine Learning Researcher, and a truly unparalleled educational experience. You'll work side by side with experienced ML Researchers on projects that we've selected for their combination of novel ML ideas and relevance to real-world systematic trading strategies. You'll learn how we think about markets through challenging classes and activities, and practice using established methods alongside our own unique twists to train practical models. At Jane Street, the lines between research, technology, and trading are intentionally blurry. As our strategies grow more sophisticated, close collaboration is essential for continuing to push the boundaries of what's possible. We work with petabytes of data, a computing cluster with hundreds of thousands of cores, and a growing GPU cluster containing thousands of high-end GPUs. Trading poses unusual challenges-large models and nonstationary datasets in a competitive multi-agent environment-that force us to search for novel techniques. You'll spend the bulk of your internship working closely with full-time machine learning researchers on projects drawn from their own work. You might conduct an end-to-end study of an unexplored dataset, try a new modeling paradigm for a thorny problem, or consider blue-sky approaches that we're still trying to figure out. The problems we work on rarely have clean, definitive answers, and they often require insights from colleagues across the firm with different areas of expertise. Depending on the day, you might be diving deep into market data, tuning hyperparameters, debugging training issues, or analyzing the predictions your model makes. Note that given the IP-sensitive nature of machine learning research at Jane Street, it is unlikely that any research findings associated with the internship will be suitable for outside academic publication. About You 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. If you have a curious mind and a passion for solving interesting problems, we have a feeling you'll fit right in. You should be: A PhD student or postdoc with practical experience working on empirical ML research problems Interested in applying logical and mathematical thinking to all kinds of problems Curious about the machine learning landscape and excited to apply state-of-the-art techniques drawn from many problem domains Fluent with a versatile set of models and tricks Able to rapidly implement and iterate on your ideas in Python and your favorite ML framework Eager to ask questions, admit mistakes, and learn new things If you'd like to learn more, you can read about our interview process and meet some of the team.
