Sizable Semitic Nose
When it comes to visually signaling to an audience that a character is Jewish, there are multiple ways of doing it, with varying levels of subtlety. The most on-the-nose way to do it is with their nose: namely, a large nose with a prominent bridge and a tip that points downwards, giving it a hook-like shape.

However, they're far from the only groups where the trait is common, and it's by no means exclusive to them. It's been observed in many other ethnicities, including those from Europe, South Asia, and the Americas. In fact, it's also been referred to as the "Roman nose" due to its prominence in the Mediterranean. These days, however, it's largely associated with Semitic people, i.e., Jews and Arabs.
