Who We Are

The D. E. Shaw group was founded in 1988 by David E. Shaw. Our Hyderabad office opened in 1996 with 20 employees and is now home to a large part of the group’s global workforce. D. E. Shaw India has grown to be a critical part of the group’s investment management activities, providing strategic support and impacting business outcomes through deep domain expertise and cutting-edge technology.

Since our inception as a technological development center, we’ve expanded our business into a broad range of software and financial activities.

In 2023, we opened offices in Bengaluru and Gurugram, while remaining central to the information technology industry in Hyderabad, our primary hub.

D. E. Shaw India prizes a culture of collaboration across disciplines, geographies, and investment strategies. Dynamic leadership and diversely talented minds chart our course. Analytical rigor, passion for discovery, and a relentless pursuit of excellence drive us forward.
