Jane Street: does its software engineer sponsor a UK visa?
Only in part. Jane Street sponsors its software engineer for some tracks or offices, not all. Jane Street Europe Limited holds an active Skilled Worker sponsor licence. Certificate-of-Sponsorship data compiled from Home Office FOI releases showed roughly 170 visas sponsored over 3 years, with 94% of one recent year's sponsored workers paid £80k or more, and 'Programmers and software development professionals' the top sponsored occupation, strong concrete evidence of active software-engineer sponsorship at high pay. janestreet.com's own FAQ page was not successfully re-extracted this session, so the verdict rests on the sponsor-licence and occupation-level CoS pattern rather than a fresh direct quote.
