Redesign

A quantitative trading firm explains itself to two audiences at once: institutions who want liquidity, and engineers who want hard problems. This concept builds one structure that serves both.

[ 01 ] Overview

Two audiences,
one structure

The existing site is confident and unusually well made — dense illustration, playful puzzles, a strong voice. What it does not have is a clear split between the institutional story and the recruiting story.

This concept keeps the firm's warm paper, its red and the hexagon that runs through its identity, and reorganises the surface: a plain-spoken homepage, a client page that reads like a capability sheet, and a culture section that stays human without becoming a brochure.

[ 02 ] Principles
Plain language first
Trading firms hide behind abstraction. Every headline in this concept says a concrete thing a person could repeat out loud.
The hexagon is the grid
The mark's geometry becomes structural: tiles, bullets and section markers all derive from the same six-sided module.
Blocks, not rules
Sections are separated by solid tone and a 4px seam rather than borders. The page reads as assembled parts.
Red is a pointer
One red per screenful, always on the thing you should do next. Never decorative, never a background wash.

Say what the
firm does

The homepage opens on the firm's own sentence, then immediately forks: one path for institutions, one for people who want to work here. Everything below is evidence for one of those two paths.

[ 05 ] What We Do

A capability
sheet, not a
brochure

Institutional visitors arrive with a specific question: what can you trade, where, and at what size. The page answers in the first screen and keeps the numbers legible.

[ 06 ] Culture

Show the work,
not the perks

Culture pages usually list benefits. This one leads with how people actually spend a day — problems, puzzles, teaching — and puts the benefits where someone looks for them, near the roles.

Curious people, working together

Jane Street is a research-driven trading firm. Most of the day is spent explaining ideas to each other and taking them apart.

How the work goes

Collaboration
Desks sit together and argue in the open. Being wrong quickly is cheaper than being right slowly.
Teaching
Classes, reading groups and internal talks run continuously, taught by people who trade.
Puzzles
A monthly problem, open to anyone. The same instinct that makes the trading work.

One tile
per screen

The tile grid stacks to full-width blocks. Navigation is a dark sheet with the hexagon as the tap target, so the identity survives at 375px.

[ 08 ] Usability

Decisions made
for the visitor

A firm this technical attracts visitors who scan rather than read. These are the changes that make the site faster to use rather than better looking.

Navigation
Search is visible
Search sits in the bar as a labelled control, not a bare icon, and appears first in the mobile sheet.
Orientation
Section always stated
The active top-level item is red and every section carries a persistent sub-nav, so no page is a dead end.
Legibility
No type under 13px
Uppercase mono is set at 13px with loosened tracking; reading passages use a serif at 16–19px.
Contrast
AA on every pairing
Red is only ever used on white or near-black, never on the paper tone, where it would fall below the threshold.
Targets
44px minimum
Mobile list rows and buttons clear 44px, and the whole row is tappable rather than the label alone.
Priority
One primary action
Each screen carries a single filled red button. Everything else is an outline or a text link.
