Personnel: Sam Bankman-Fried at Jane Street (Trader)

Verdictpartial85%
1 check · 4/9/2026

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 lists startDate as 2014, which is incomplete/imprecise since his initial internship was in 2013. The role 'Trader' is confirmed (he traded international ETFs). The endDate of 2017 is confirmed. This is a partial match because the start date is not fully accurate—he began at Jane Street in 2013, not 2014.
