Last checked: 4/4/2026

The source confirms SBF worked at Jane Street and that he left in September 2017 (matching the endDate of 2017). However, the source indicates he started as an intern in summer 2013, then returned full-time after graduating in 2014—not that he started in 2014. The record's startDate of 2014 is imprecise; it should likely be 2013 (intern) or more accurately reflect the full-time start after graduation in 2014. The role 'Trader' is confirmed by the source's mention of 'trading international ETFs' and 'proprietary trading firm,' though the source uses 'intern' for the 2013 position. The endDate of 2017 is confirmed.
