Jane Street seeks PhD and masters students for a research internship in their Compilers team, focusing on improving OCaml's compiler and toolchain. Candidates will collaborate on innovative programming language research projects and gain exposure to Jane Street's technology stack.
Primary responsibilities include working collaboratively with mentors on compiler and programming language research projects, extending type systems, re-engineering optimizers, and developing tools for profiling, debugging, and build automation.
Candidates must have outstanding research experience in programming languages, compilers, verification, and related areas. Strong academic background in computer science, particularly in type systems, compiler design, and software engineering is essential. Publication record in peer-reviewed conferences is preferred.
The internship offers a unique opportunity to apply state-of-the-art research to a production codebase, learn about OCaml in a professional setting, access educational resources, attend guest speaker events, and potentially transition to a full-time role at a cutting-edge technology company.
