Website D. E. Shaw
The goal of our summer internship program is to expose talented candidates to the projects and environment associated with full-time work in quantitative analysis and software development at the D. E. Shaw group. Interns interact with various trading groups and gain valuable work experience while demonstrating their skills on a variety of real-world projects. Working closely with quants, developers, and other senior staff as mentors, interns can expect an inclusive environment conducive to learning. In addition, numerous social events give interns the opportunity to interact with colleagues and gain insight into the firm as a whole.
What you‡ll do day-to-day
Software development interns work closely with full-time employees to build tools for the analysis of financial instruments, as well as to design and deploy real-time, scalable applications for the firm‡s highly automated trading activities.
Who we‡re looking for
Successful candidates have traditionally been the top students in their respective math, statistics, physics, engineering, computer science, and other technical and quantitative programs.
At the D. E. Shaw group, we believe the diversity of our employees is core to our strength and success. We are committed to supporting our people in work and in life, which is why we offer benefits such as a family planning and surrogacy program and a charitable gift match to all full-time employees.
