Do you mean Yaron Minsky? I don't think he was a co-founder of Jane Street. From what he's said publicly I got the impression that he was a hire (who obviously had a huge impact).

I don't think he's a co-founder but he is the one who brought OCaml into that company. Started out as a means to do some quick demos and ended up being their language of choice.
