Formal people management experience is not required. * Hands-on experience developing applications with AI coding agents (e.g., Claude Code), with the judgment to review generated code, test its behavior, protect sensitive information, and recognize the tools' limits. * Experience shipping through a reviewed delivery pipeline in GitHub, Azure DevOps, GitLab, or similar, and the ability to build GitHub-based CI/CD and infrastructure automation. * Experience deploying and operating services that handle sensitive data, with sound practices in application security, identity, secrets management, and incident response. * Hands-on experience building API and webhook integrations, including authentication, error handling, data consistency, and production troubleshooting. * Experience solutioning gaps between third-party vendor platforms and internal business processes. Core Competencies * Modern Development: Strong programming skills in a language such as Python, TypeScript/JavaScript, or C#, plus relational databases, SQL, and API design. * Security Mindset: Familiarity with OWASP Top 10, secure SDLC, identity and access management, and the protection of NPI. * Systems Thinking: Ability to understand data flows and dependencies across multiple platforms and design solutions that scale and remain supportable. * Communication: Ability to explain technical tradeoffs, delivery risks, and operational needs clearly to business stakeholders and executive leadership. Preferred Experience (Strong Plus) * System configuration and development experience in banking or mortgage technology, such as Encompass, Vesta, or Jack Henry, and related point-of-sale, pricing, or document systems. * Building or governing production AI agents, including agent skills and instructions, evaluation frameworks, MCP integrations, and runtime controls. * Setting up engineering practices for a small team, improving developer workflows, or leading a migration to GitHub. Education: * Degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related software development field required; bachelor's degree preferred. * Cloud, security, or DevOps certifications (e.g., Microsoft Azure, AWS, CompTIA Security+, GitHub) are a plus. ## Description Luminate Bank is hiring a Staff Software Engineer to design, build, secure, and run the proprietary applications and integrations that connect our banking and mortgage platforms. You'll ship priority business software hands-on-using AI coding agents such as Claude Code to accelerate delivery-while setting the team's standards for secure delivery, reliable operations, and responsible use of AI tools in a regulated environment where most of our applications handle nonpublic personal information (NPI). This is an individual contributor role. You'll provide technical direction and coaching to a small team of engineers and specialists; people management stays with the EVP, Technology or a designated manager. Most of your time will be hands-on engineering, with protected time for design, mentoring, documentation, and cross-training. Early priorities include moving from Azure DevOps to GitHub, improving the reliability of key integrations, and building applications that fill gaps in our vendor platforms. Responsibilities and Duties: Application & Integration Engineering * Design and build production applications, services, and extensions for priority banking and mortgage needs, working with business owners to define scope and acceptance criteria. * Build and support integrations using REST APIs, webhooks, events, and scheduled batch exchanges. Evaluate vendor capabilities and find maintainable ways to close gaps between third-party software and how Luminate operates. * Make integrations safe under failure with authentication, input validation, idempotency, bounded retries, rate limiting, and safe replay, and use reconciliation to confirm business outcomes. * Own architecture and technical quality for assigned services, including API contracts, automated tests, and support documentation. AI-Assisted Development * Use the bank's approved AI coding agents (e.g., Claude Code) to speed up implementation, testing, and documentation, while owning what ships: review generated code and verify its behavior with meaningful tests. * Create reusable agent skills, instructions, and patterns for the team, with approved model services, scoped tool permissions, and clear rules for sensitive data and production access. * For prioritized business use cases that use AI agents, define permitted actions, evaluation criteria, human approval points, monitoring, and recovery before anything goes live. Software Factory & DevOps * Shape and maintain GitHub-based development and release practices, including the migration from Azure DevOps, in partnership with internal teams and implementation partners. * Build reusable repository templates and CI/CD workflows with automated tests, code and dependency scanning, secret detection, required reviews, and controlled promotion between environments. * Provision and maintain application infrastructure as code, using the bank's approved hosting, identity, networking, and secrets services. * Keep engineering documentation alongside the code. Automate API and release documentation where practical, with named owners reviewing operational procedures. Security, Governance & Production Reliability * Implement and verify controls that protect NPI and other sensitive data, including least privilege, secrets management, encryption, access controls, and redacted telemetry. * Work with Information Security, Compliance, and Risk on threat modeling, AI service approvals, vendor reviews, vulnerability remediation, and audit evidence. Escalate residual risks to the bank's authorized decision makers. * Instrument assigned services with logs, metrics, health checks, and alerts, and maintain backup and recovery procedures. Test alerts and recovery with named responders and backup owners. * Take part in incident response and critical releases under a defined support and escalation model, and use operational data to improve reliability. Technical Leadership & Collaboration * Mentor engineers and specialists through pairing, design and code reviews, and knowledge sharing. Cross-train the team so every service can be supported by more than its original author. * Help with recruiting, technical interviews, and onboarding, and give technical feedback that supports team members' development plans alongside their people manager. * Work with the EVP, Technology and delivery stakeholders to sequence priorities, flag capacity constraints, and balance product work, reliability, security remediation, and technical debt. * Partner with Data & Analytics, Business Solutions & Delivery, and IT & Infrastructure. Define integration contracts and shared delivery patterns with Data & Analytics, which owns the lakehouse and data quality.
