Equal mastery everywhere is not expected; single-tier specialists will struggle in this seat. * Working fluency in the investment data domain: trade lifecycle, IBOR vs. ABOR, fixed income and derivatives, private and structured assets, corporate actions, and reconciliation. * Strong software engineering experience leveraging technologies like Python, Javascript, SQL, Terraform, bash plus modern web application experience (TypeScript/React-class front ends; REST, GraphQL, or event-driven APIs). * Hands-on AWS experience (compute, serverless, containers, eventing, IAM) and a Snowflake-class cloud data platform, including streaming ingestion and orchestration at scale. * Experience applying generative AI and agentic tooling to engineering delivery or building AI-assisted workflow applications. * Direct experience integrating major investment platforms (Aladdin, Bloomberg, SimCorp, Eagle, Clearwater, PAM-class accounting systems, or similar) including where they bend and where they break. * Experience delivering under audit: SOX, SOC 1/2, model governance, or an equivalent controls regime, with the scars to prove you design for evidence rather than retrofit it. * Ability to tailor communication to both technical and business audiences from the individual contributor to the executive level., * Insurance or reinsurance general-account experience, including investment accounting and statutory reporting exposure. * Familiarity with Asset-Liability Management and the actuarial interface to investment data. * Private credit or private markets platform experience. * Experience operating within an Agile Methodology in a product-oriented technology organization. ## Description RGA is executing a multi-year modernization of its investment technologies, including applications, workflow, APIs and integration, and the investment data & analytics platform spanning the front, middle, and back office of a large account portfolio. The Senior Software Engineering Architect, Investment Technologies will own end-to-end solution architecture across the full stack., * Own end-to-end solution architecture across the investment technology estate: applications, services, and data for front-, middle-, and back-office teams; APIs and services; the integration fabric; and the investment data & analytics platform, including its interfaces to multi-basis accounting. * Define and enforce the reference architecture at every tier: canonical investment domain model, IBOR/ABOR/PBOR data flows, API-first service standards, event-driven and batch integration patterns (CDC, streaming, file), and application technology standards. * Engage with investment engineering teams for implementations from UI to pipeline, production code quality, review designs and pull requests, and set the engineering bar for testing, CI/CD, observability, and infrastructure-as-code. * Architect around the vendor estate - order/portfolio management, investment accounting, private markets, market data providers, and custodians - building the applications, APIs, and automation that close the gaps vendors leave, with explicit build-vs-buy-vs-configure decisions. * Design on a modern AWS cloud stack end to end: serverless and containerized services, eventing, workflow orchestration, and a Snowflake-based data platform with cost and controls treated as first-class architecture criteria. * Engineer for a regulated environment: architectures must produce SOX ITGC and SOC 1/2 evidence by design, with data lineage, logging, and traceable audit controls. * Build the architectural runway within Agile and RGA's Product Delivery Operating Model: author enabler epics, participate in PI planning, sequence technical debt, and keep investment technologies delivery teams building against established target state. * Mentor senior engineers and partner credibly with enterprise architecture, information security, data governance, investment operations, and investment accounting leadership. ## Related Videos - [Infrastructure as Code: The Developer's Secret Weapon](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1221-infrastructure-as-code-the-developer-s-secret-weapon) - [Watch Tests Go Brrrr! : Getting Started with Cypress in ReactJS](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/282-watch-tests-go-brrrr-getting-started-with-cypress-in-reactjs) - [Putting the Graph In GraphQL With The Neo4j GraphQL Library](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/257-putting-the-graph-in-graphql-with-the-neo4j-graphql-library) - [Next Level Enterprise Architecture: Modular, Flexible, Scalable, Multichannel and AI-Ready?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1017-next-level-enterprise-architecture-modular-flexible-scalable-multichannel-and-ai-ready) - [Implementing Feature Environments with AWS and Terraform](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/531-implementing-feature-environments-with-aws-and-terraform) - [The Software Engineer 2030: From Coder To AI Orchestrator? - Patrick Schnell](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1825-the-software-engineer-2030-from-coder-to-ai-orchestrator-patrick-schnell) ## Related Articles - [The 12 Best Jobs for Software Engineers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/401-the-12-best-jobs-for-software-engineers) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [How We Built a Worry-Free System That Runs for 10+ Years – And What We’d Do Again](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/751-how-we-built-a-worry-free-system-that-runs-for-10-years-and-what-we-d-do-again) - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift) - [Why Upskilling And Reskilling is Important For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/428-why-upskilling-and-reskilling-is-important-for-developers)
