About this role
Be an integral part of an agile team that's constantly pushing the envelope to enhance, build, and deliver top-notch technology products. As a Senior Lead Software Engineer at JPMorganChase within the Chief Technology Office - Risk, Control & Regulatory team, 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. Drive significant business impact through your capabilities and contributions, and apply deep technical expertise and problem-solving methodologies to tackle a diverse array of challenges that span multiple technologies and applications. You will develop Python-based software that combines data pipelines, authenticated internal-system integrations, and generative AI/LLM-based agent capabilities. You will focus on a Python and PostgreSQL platform, backed by a curated risk data store and an architecture of LLM agents and skills. You will contribute production code regularly, raise the engineering quality bar through strong technical judgment and collaboration, and ensure solutions are reliable, well-observed, and compliant with firm expectations for security, data sensitivity, and responsible AI use.
Job responsibilities
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. Build and maintain the full-stack Python toolkit and data products that power agentic risk-oversight workflows Implement LLM-based services, including retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), tool/function calling, agent and skill orchestration, prompt/version management, and evaluation/guardrails aligned to risk and control expectations. Develop authenticated integrations and APIs to internal systems (REST and streaming/WebSocket), handling cookie/CSRF/Kerberos/SSO auth, pagination, retry/backoff, and TLS, with a focus on performance, reliability, resiliency, and security-by-design. Work on data pipelines with our Data Scientist’s that stream and normalize large datasets and join them across sources against large schemas, using correct, performant, read-only SQL. Write secure, high-quality production code and comprehensive tests; contribute actively to code reviews (as author and reviewer) with a focus on maintainability, clarity, and misuse resistance. Build observability into services (logs/metrics/tracing), troubleshoot production issues, participate in incident response as needed, and automate remediation for recurring operational problems. Implement safe-by-default patterns for AI features (e.g., bounded tool use, validation, timeouts, structured outputs, audit trails, and human-in-the-loop workflows where appropriate). Generate audience-ready outputs, including self-contained interactive HTML dashboards and structured evidence packages, calibrated for technical and non-technical risk stakeholders. Collaborate in our product team to refine requirements, break down work, and deliver iteratively in partnership with Product, Risk, Controls, Compliance, and data teams. Use enterprise-authorized AI-assisted engineering tools responsibly to accelerate delivery (coding, refactoring, test creation, troubleshooting) while validating outputs for correctness, performance, and security. Required qualifications, capabilities, and skills Formal training or certification on software engineering concepts and 5+ years applied experience Demonstrated experience leading effective use of enterprise-authorized AI-assisted software development tools within the work environment (e.g., for coding, code review, test acceleration, troubleshooting) with the ability to
