As a Lead Software Engineer at JPMorganChase within the Asset & Wealth Management, you are an integral part of an agile team that works to enhance, build, and deliver trusted market-leading technology products in a secure, stable, and scalable way. As a core technical contributor, you are responsible for conducting critical technology solutions across multiple technical areas within various business functions in support of the firm’s business objectives.
Responsibilities
- Own application components end-to-end across the SDLC, including architecture, build, test, deploy, observability, and production support.
- Partner with product, design, business, and engineering stakeholders to translate complex requirements into actionable technical plans.
- Design and deliver secure, resilient, high-performance services and user experiences for enterprise-scale managed-account platforms.
- Lead technical discovery, solution design, complexity estimation, and implementation for high-impact initiatives.
- Coach engineers via code reviews, pairing, technical stories, and pragmatic engineering standards.
- Drive adoption of enterprise-approved AI-assisted engineering practices to improve quality, speed, and operational outcomes.
- Apply appropriate architectural patterns (DDD, microservices, event-driven, cloud-native) where they add clear value.
- Use AI coding tools (e.g., Claude Code, GitHub Copilot) to accelerate understanding, delivery, testing, debugging, docs, and modernization.
- Create high-quality prompts and reusable guidance that provide AI agents with necessary business, architecture, and repo context.
- Validate all AI-generated changes (secure coding, peer review, automated testing), keep edits focused, protect sensitive data, and remain accountable for outcomes.
- Improve CI/CD, test automation, developer experience, and operational readiness by reducing manual effort and tightening feedback loops.
Requirements
- Formal training or certification on software engineering concepts and 5+ years applied experience.
- 10+ years of hands-on enterprise software engineering experience using Java, J2EE, REST APIs, Spring Boot, Hibernate or another ORM, microservices, and relational databases such as Oracle or Sybase.
- Demonstrated experience leading effective use of approved AI-assisted software development tools with the ability to set team expectations for validating AI outputs for correctness, performance, and security.
- Strong understanding of responsible AI use in engineering workflows, including data sensitivity considerations, secure handling of inputs/outputs, and adherence to resiliency and security expectations; experience coaching engineers on safe, compliant adoption within delivery practices.
- Strong experience designing highly scalable, secure, resilient, and observable distributed systems.
- Deep understanding of object-oriented design, Domain-Driven Design, microservices patterns, client-server architecture, and modern cloud-native architectures.
- Strong test-driven development skills and practical experience with JUnit, Mockito, Cucumber, or comparable automation frameworks.
- Proficiency in SQL, complex queries, joins, stored procedures, views, indexes, and database change management; Liquibase experience is beneficial.
- Hands-on experience building CI/CD pipelines using Git, Maven, Jenkins, SonarQube, or equivalent tools.
- Experience with Agile software delivery and a track record of leading technical work in collaborative, cross-functional teams.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with excellent attention to detail and the ability to communicate complex ideas clearly.
