As an AI Lead Software Engineer at JPMorgan

Chase within Corporate Technology, you will be a key technical leader on an agile team designing and delivering secure, scalable, high-performing technology solutions. You will partner across product, business, and engineering stakeholders to build strategic AI platforms that enable the firm's objectives.

• Lead the design, development, and delivery of high-quality software solutions that solve complex business problems with modern engineering practices
• Drive architectural decisions and technical direction to improve scalability, resiliency, and availability for distributed systems
• Build and maintain secure, production-grade services, setting a high bar for code quality through reviews, testing, and engineering excellence
• Mentor engineers through technical guidance, pairing, and actionable feedback to raise team capability and delivery outcomes
• Implement continuous integration and continuous delivery automation and reliability patterns to support safe, frequent releases
• Develop data-intensive services and workflows using Java or Scala, working effectively with large-scale datasets and modern data platforms
• Design and build AI-enabled applications, including retrieval-augmented generation patterns and agentic workflows, with appropriate evaluation and guardrails
• Drives team adoption of enterprise-authorized AI-assisted engineering practices within the work environment to improve code quality, delivery speed, and operational outcomes (e.g., AI-assisted code review/refactoring, test strategy acceleration, incident/root-cause analysis support), while establishing consistent validation standards (secure coding, peer review, automated testing) and promoting reuse of effective patterns across the team.
• Applies knowledge of tools within the Software Development Life Cycle toolchain, including enterprise-authorized AI-assisted development and automation capabilities, to improve the value realized by automation.

• Formal training or certification on software engineering concepts and 5+ years applied experience
• Demonstrated hands-on experience designing and delivering scalable, secure, resilient distributed systems in a production environment
• Proficiency in Java and Spring Boot, with working knowledge of SQL and modern user interface frameworks (for example, React)
• Strong understanding of modern architecture patterns, including microservices, event-driven design, and application programming interface-first approaches
• Experience building and operating solutions on public cloud platforms (for example, Amazon Web Services), including containerization and orchestration (Docker and Kubernetes)
• Experience implementing continuous integration and continuous delivery pipelines and Infrastructure as Code practices to improve release safety and speed
• Practical experience with application programming interface design and integration patterns (for example, REST and GraphQL), including security and performance considerations
• Demonstrated experience leading effective use of approved AI-assisted software development tools (e.g., for coding, code review, test acceleration, troubleshooting) 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…
