About the Position
We are looking for a Graphic Designer to help our Creative Engagement team breathe visual life into the cutting-edge financial, technological, and mathematical work being done at Jane Street. In this role, you’ll help create and curate the look of the firm and its many departments, programs, spaces, and events.
Your projects will be wide-ranging, and might include assets for our website, forms, and other documents, logos, icons, social media posts, and recruiting marketing materials. You will also manage partnerships around the firm’s custom swag – for example, our beloved series of mathematical T-shirts.
We are open to an array of design interests and training, and we will endeavor to put yours to good use. For example, if you enjoy print design, you can help design our brochures, and if you enjoy digital work, your creations can be featured on our website. However, you will also serve as a design generalist, depending on the current needs of the team and the firm.
Because of the intellectual nature of our work, we’re looking for someone who can take abstract concepts and turn them into clear, engaging designs that celebrate the thoughtful work that our colleagues are doing throughout the company.
No previous financial experience is necessary, only a keen desire to tackle interesting design challenges. A portfolio of work is required to apply for this role.
We are open to candidates who want to consider short-term employment opportunities.
About You
- 10+ years of experience and a portfolio of work
- Excellent taste in design
- Enjoy working on a diverse set of projects, big and small
- View feedback and iteration as keys to solving design puzzles
- Proficient in Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and PowerPoint
- Comfortable working in Google Suite (especially Slides and Docs)
- Illustration skills are a plus

What We Do
Jane Street works differently. As a liquidity provider and market maker, we trade on more than 200 trading venues across 45 countries and help form the backbone of global markets. Our approach is rooted in technology and rigorous quantitative analysis, but our success is driven by our people.
Our bright, beautiful offices in the heart of New York, London, Hong Kong, and Amsterdam are open and buzzing with conversation. We come from many backgrounds and encourage travel between offices to share perspectives. Some of our best ideas come from bumping into a visiting colleague at the office coffee bar.
Markets move fast. Staying competitive as we’ve grown has required constant invention—of new trading strategies, technology, and processes. We’ve found this is easier when you hire humble, kind people. They tend to help each other, and prioritize teamwork over titles.
We invest heavily in teaching and training. There’s a library and a classroom in every office, because deepening your understanding of something is considered real work. Guest lectures, classes, and conferences round out the intellectual exchanges that happen every day.
People grow into long careers at Jane Street because there are always new and interesting problems to solve, systems to build, and theories to test. More than twenty years after our founding, it still feels like we’re just getting started.
