If you're a Senior Lead Software Engineer who takes ownership of outcomes in production — not just implementation — and thrives on turning ambiguous requirements into stable, well-modeled service designs, this role was built for you. You will have meaningful latitude to influence architecture, engineering standards, and reliability posture across services, with expectations and recognition aligned to senior-level impact.
As a Senior Lead Software Engineer at JPMorgan
Chase within the Corporate AI/ML Data Platforms – Machine Learning Center of Excellence, you will design, build, and optimize high-performance, low-latency distributed systems that serve as the backbone of our machine learning and data infrastructure. You will collaborate across engineering, data science, and platform teams to deliver resilient, cloud-native solutions that enable the firm to operate at the forefront of AI-driven innovation.
Your work will directly shape the reliability, scalability, and performance of systems that process critical data across the enterprise, and your voice will carry weight in the architectural and engineering decisions that define how the platform evolves.
Job responsibilities
Architects and implements low-latency, high-throughput Java Spring Boot based distributed services, using object-oriented principles, that meet the performance demands of production-grade services with strong well-defined APIs
Designs and builds resilient, cloud-native service architectures with strong high-availability (HA) requirements, from 3 to 5 nines, leveraging standard AWS compute, messaging, streaming, DB and storage services like MSK (Kafka), SQS, S3, ECS, EKS, Lambda, KVS/KDS, RDS, Dynamo, Redshift, and S3.
Develops and maintains infrastructure-as-code solutions using Terraform and/or Cloud Formation to support scalable, repeatable, and auditable cloud deployments
Implements and continuously improves observability solutions — including alerting, monitoring, and reporting — using Datadog, Dynatrace, and Splunk to deliver actionable production intelligence across microservices platforms
Translates ambiguous or evolving requirements into stable, well-modeled service designs, clearly articulating engineering tradeoffs to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
Leads technical design reviews, establishes engineering best practices, and drive adoption of standards that improve platform operability, reliability, and maintainability
Owns production outcomes end-to-end — identifying and resolving performance bottlenecks, reliability gaps, and scalability constraints through automation and runbook-driven operations
Partners with machine learning engineers and data scientists to understand platform requirements and deliver robust, production-ready engineering solutions
Mentors and provides technical guidance to engineers across the team, fostering a culture of ownership, continuous learning, and engineering excellence
Drives adoption and governance of approved AI-assisted engineering practices across teams to improve code quality, delivery speed, and operational outcomes (e.g., AI-assisted code review/refactoring, test acceleration, release readiness, incident/root-cause analysis), while establishing measurable validation standards (secure coding, peer review, automated testing) and promoting reuse of proven patterns and automation within the SDLC/TLM toolchain.
Applies knowledge of tools within the Software Development Life Cycle toolchain, including approved AI-assisted development and automation capabilities, to improve the value realized by automation at scale.
Required qualifications, capabilities, and skills
Formal training or certification on software engineering concepts and 5+ years’ applied experience; very strong Java development skills…
