Network Engineer

About the position

Our goal is to give you a real sense of what it's like to work at Jane Street full time while also providing a truly unparalleled educational experience. As an intern, you are paired with full-time employees who act as mentors, collaborating with you on real-world projects we actually need done.

As a Network Engineer intern, you’ll work with full-timers to learn how we maintain and improve a critical piece of infrastructure underlying our firm’s technology. Our numerous distributed systems are built on a reliable, multi-vendor network infrastructure that supports all traffic profiles from trading to internet connectivity.

On any given day, we might be: 

• Working on cross-team projects such as site expansions and new colocation builds
• Debugging routing protocols
• Provisioning new market data feeds and connections to third parties
• Automating support tasks and improving the team's ability to monitor the network

You’ll have a unique opportunity to see how our team interacts with several groups to build solutions that work on a firm-wide scale. We automate as much of our work as we can because we find that automation reduces our error rate and overall workload—plus, we think it's fun.
