Job description

  • Provide direction, oversight, and coaching to teams of entry- to mid-level software engineers delivering solutions for internal funding, NII, and related accounting/finance use cases.

  • Manage accountability for decisions impacting team resources, budget, tactical operations, and the execution of processes and procedures across multiple pipelines and services.

  • Sets and scales operating practices for enterprise-authorized AI-assisted engineering and SDLC/TLM automation across multiple teams to improve delivery speed, quality, and operational outcomes; establishes measurable expectations (e.g., throughput, defect reduction, reliability) and ensures consistent validation, security, resiliency, and reuse of proven patterns.

  • Applies knowledge of tools within the Software Development Life Cycle toolchain, including enterprise-authorized AI-assisted development and automation capabilities, to drive efficiency and support capacity unlock initiatives across teams, prioritizing reuse of existing firm technology assets.

  • Ensure successful collaboration across Finance, Risk, Treasury, SRE, and Data Platform stakeholders to deliver secure, scalable, and well-controlled solutions.

  • Identify and mitigate issues to execute the book of work; escalate risks proactively and drive remediation plans.

  • Manage platform strategy and modernization (cloud-first, data-first), including AI enablement for efficiency, anomaly detection, and automation of controls.

  • Champion engineering best practices for big data processing (Databricks, Spark), microservices (Java/Python), API design, CI/CD, observability, and resiliency.

  • Manage logical explanations and finance-grade controls (data lineage, reconciliations, validations) that meet accounting and reporting standards.

  • Create a culture of diversity, opportunity, inclusion, and respect, with emphasis on mentorship, talent development, and thought leadership.

Requirements

  • Formal training or certification on software engineering concepts and 5+ years applied experience . In addition, 2 + years of experience leading technologists to manage and solve complex technical items within your domain of expertise

  • Experience leading multiple teams; ability to guide and coach on achieving goals aligned to strategic initiatives and regulatory timelines.

  • Experience leading multi-team adoption of enterprise-authorized AI-assisted development and delivery tools, including defining governance/ways of working (human-in-the-loop validation, quality gates), measuring outcomes, and ensuring secure handling of sensitive inputs/outputs.

  • Strong understanding of responsible AI use in engineering workflows, including data sensitivity considerations, resiliency/security implications, and control expectations; ability to coach managers/leads and influence leaders on safe scaling patterns.

  • Proven track record hiring, developing, and recognizing engineering talent; strong mentorship and people leadership.

  • Deep understanding of finance and accounting concepts related to internal funding and NII (e.g., accruals, FTP/base rate curves, interest calculation logic, ledger alignment).

  • Practical cloud-native experience, in AWS (compute, storage, networking, security).

  • Proficiency with Databricks/Spark for large-scale data processing; strong coding skills in Python and Java; familiarity with data pipelines and controls.

  • Experience in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, or a related field, with expertise across core technology disciplines (APIs, data, platform engineering).

Preferred qualifications, capabilities, and skills

  • Experience producing high-quality code and design at a senior level; ability to set standards, review designs, and drive technical direction.

  • Background in AI/ML enablement for operational efficiency, quality controls, and anomaly detection in finance data.
