About The Company
At DRW, we identify and capture trading and investment opportunities globally. What sets us apart is our diversified approach—trading across many asset classes and instruments, in markets around the world, with horizons from seconds to years. We succeed by leveraging technology, research and risk management. We offer the best of both worlds: the opportunity and spirit of a startup and the benefits and stability of an established, experienced firm. Our employees work hard to solve interesting problems, and their results are rewarded. We value continuous learning—from our outcomes, from the environment and from each other. It’s a place of high expectations, deep curiosity, and constant collaboration, with some of the smartest, most passionate people you’ll meet. // Chez DRW, nous identifions et saisissons les opportunités de négociation et d'investissement au niveau mondial. Ce qui nous différencie, c'est notre approche diversifiée : nous négocions sur de nombreuses classes d'actifs et d'instruments, sur des marchés du monde entier, avec des horizons allant de quelques secondes à plusieurs années. Nous réussissons en nous appuyant sur la technologie, la recherche et la gestion des risques. Nous offrons le meilleur des deux mondes: les opportunités et l'ésprit d’une entreprise en démarrage, et les avantages et la stabilité d'une entreprise établie et expérimentée. Nos employés travaillent dur pour résoudre des problèmes intéressants et leurs résultats sont récompensés. Nous valorisons l'apprentissage continu – de nos résultats, de l’environnement et de chacun de nous. C’est un lieu où les attentes sont élevées, la curiosité est profonde et la collaboration est constante, et où l’on retrouve quelques-uns des individus les plus intelligents et les plus passionnés que vous puissiez rencontrer.
