We empower exceptional talents in Mathematics, Physics, and Computer Science to seek scientific boundaries, push through them, and apply cutting edge research to global financial markets. Our culture is unique. Constant innovation requires fearlessness, creativity, intellectual honesty, and a relentless competitive streak. We believe in winning together and unlocking unique individual talent by incenting collaboration and mutual respect. At Jump, research outcomes drive more than superior risk adjusted returns. We design, develop, and deploy technologies that change our world, fund start-ups across industries, and partner with leading global research organizations and universities to solve problems.\nOur Data team is responsible for building a world class Data Platform with a centralized source of vendor and proprietary research data.

Our Proprietary Data team collects and builds research-ready datasets, financial and non-financial, from primary sources, vendors, and public data; cleans, tags, and organizes them with consistent identifiers, taxonomies, and metadata; sources data not available from vendors and evaluates its quality and provenance. It performs deep data analysis, identifies and corrects data quality issues, and surfaces the conventions behind the datasets we use. The team provides human-in-the-loop review for automated and AI-driven pipelines; and partners with engineers to turn manual workflows into repeatable, automated processes.\nThis is a senior, hands-on leadership role, working closely with researchers, traders, and engineers across the firm.
