Senior Lead Architect - Cloud Utilization

If you are excited about shaping the future of cloud financial operations at one of the world's leading financial institutions, we are looking for people just like you. Join our Platform Operations team and take ownership of Cloud Vision's Utilization capabilities—a strategic platform that provides visibility into cloud resource usage across AWS, Azure, GCP, and JPMC's private cloud infrastructure.

As the product owner of the Utilization feature set, you'll drive the roadmap for a platform that currently monitors over 6 million EC2 instances weekly, captures 196 million data points, and delivers insights that directly influence optimization decisions across the firm. In 2026, you'll lead the expansion from AWS-only coverage to a true multi-cloud utilization platform, enabling teams across JPMorgan

Chase to maximize the value of their cloud investments.

This is a unique opportunity to combine deep technical architecture with product ownership, working at the intersection of cloud infrastructure, big data, and financial operations. You'll guide an engineering squad of approximately 8 engineers, collaborate with finance and Fin Ops leaders across lines of business, and shape the technical direction of both Cloud Vision and Shakespeare, our homegrown cloud billing engine.
