Role summary

DRW, a diversified trading firm, is seeking a Data Analyst to join their Event Analysis and Insight team. This role involves analyzing post-event data, creating reports and visualizations, and collaborating with development teams to improve analysis tools. The ideal candidate will have at least 1 year of relevant experience, exceptional attention to detail, strong data manipulation and visualization skills, and proficiency in Python. A passion for data, pattern recognition, and a desire to leverage AI are also key. The role requires effective communication, organization, and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, demanding environment with multitasking and prioritization skills.

DRW is a diversified trading firm with over 3 decades of experience bringing sophisticated technology and exceptional people together to operate in markets around the world. We value autonomy and the ability to quickly pivot to capture opportunities, so we operate using our own capital and trading at our own risk.

Headquartered in Chicago with offices throughout the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Asia, we trade a variety of asset classes including Fixed Income, ETFs, Equities, FX, Commodities and Energy across all major global markets. We have also leveraged our expertise and technology to expand into three non-traditional strategies: real estate, venture capital and cryptoassets.

We operate with respect, curiosity and open minds. The people who thrive here share our belief that it’s not just what we do that matters–it's how we do it. DRW is a place of high expectations, integrity, innovation and a willingness to challenge consensus.

We are currently hiring a Junior Data Analyst to join our Event Analysis and Insight team. Candidates must have a passion for data manipulation and visualization and the ability to think both independently and collaboratively. They will work on the analysis of post event data, reports and providing insight.

Candidates must be comfortable working within a fast-paced, and at times highly demanding environment. They must possess a keen sense of enthusiasm and attention to detail, as well as a sense of commitment and dedication to both teams.

  • Thrive in environments where multitasking is routine and can prioritize tasks effectively.
  • Thrive in a fast-paced working environment
  • Ability to work off hours when necessary

  • Analyzing non-financial post event data in order to gain insight and discover potential issues.
  • Creating reports and visualizations to help bring forward relevant information to the stake holders.
