About this role
Serve as an emerging member of an agile team to enhance, build, and deliver technology products with our dynamic, innovative team. As a Java Software Engineer III at JPMorganChase within the Global Technology team, you will serve as a member of an agile team to design and deliver trusted, market-leading technology products in a secure, stable, and scalable way. In this role, you will help build and evolve the Portfolio Management platform, delivering portfolio management capabilities purpose-built for both Fixed Income and Multi-Asset Solutions. You will support end-to-end portfolio construction and implementation workflows across these asset classes, including intraday portfolio exposure monitoring, order management, scenario-based what-if analysis, order sizing, automated pre-trade compliance checks, and order submission. These capabilities enable portfolio managers and traders to make informed decisions, stay aligned with mandate guidelines, and execute efficiently across Fixed Income and Multi-Asset markets. You will join the backend engineering team building and maintaining JVM-based microservices that power portfolio analytics, reporting, and trade sizing across these workflows. You will work in a well-structured, multi-module codebase governed by clear conventions, designing and operating resilient services and REST APIs within a modern software development lifecycle that emphasizes quality, security, and operational excellence. Experience with Kotlin is valued; the service is progressively adopting Kotlin, so a willingness to work across both Java and Kotlin is important.
