The announcement text:

Sysadmin/Programmer combo

(aka Systems Automation Specialist)

Seeking:

Responsible, careful, passionate and skillful technology specialists to help

build and maintain our increasingly automated technology infrastructure.

You`ll need to be adept with unix (specifically linux) administration. For

example, you want to be able to format filesystems, install bootloaders, and

make rpm packages. It`s even better if you understand system calls, kernel

parameters, IO schedulers, and other lower level internals.

You`ll also need to be a good programmer. We only want people who`ve had

experience writing significant amounts of real-world code. OCaml is our

language of choice, but it`s okay if you don`t know it so long as you can learn

it. Experience in ruby, python, php, perl, scheme, haskell, erlang, and others

are all acceptable.

About us:

Jane Street is a proprietary trading firm with offices in NYC, London and Tokyo

(this ad is for NYC positions). We have about 200 employees total, the majority

of whom work in NYC. While this makes us a medium-sized business, the culture

more closely resembles that of a small startup: The atmosphere is casual and

informal; we care about doing good work more than dress codes or hours put in;

there`s not much room for office politics; and, there`s a lot of financial

upside if you do great work.

We have a large datacenter on-site and several colocation facilities, with

hundreds of servers total. We manage all of this with just a small team by

leveraging our programming skills to create scalable, automated systems. We use

a lot of open source tools and write the rest ourselves.

Our systems team is tightly integrated with the rest of the company so you get

exposure to a broad range of concepts and ideas. Unlike at other large

financial firms, our technology group is highly regarded and central to our

business, not just a footnote.

Perks:

In addition to our excellent benefits which you can read about here:

http://www.janestreet.com/workplace/benefits.php

we have on-site classes taught by employees on subjects ranging from

programming to finance to trading to bridge (yes, the game).

If this sounds like a match to your background, skills, and disposition, let us

know. Send two documents (in ASCII or PDF format please) to

ogunden@janestreet.com: (1) a cover letter indicating why you think you`re

a good fit and (2) your resume.

Principals only. Recruiters, please don`t contact this job poster.

Please, no phone calls about this job!

Please do not contact job poster about other services, products or commercial interests.
