Lead Software Engineer - AI Application

We have an opportunity to impact your career and provide an adventure where you can push the limits of what's possible. As a Lead Software Engineer at JPMorganChase within Corporate Technology, you will lead the architecture and hands-on implementation of scalable GenAI Applications and agentic AI platforms for Finance use cases leveraging Firmwide AI tools & platforms. You will design cloud-native solutions, establish evaluation and observability standards, and drive technical decisions across teams to improve reliability, cost, and developer velocity. The candidate will design cloud-native AWS services and reusable platform capabilities (agents, retrieval/RAG, guardrails, tool orchestration, APIs), while establishing strong evaluation, observability, reliability, security, and cost controls. Ideal candidates have extensive experience, advanced Python, proven delivery of LLM/agentic systems, and technical leadership skills to mentor engineers and drive cross-team architecture standards in a regulated enterprise environment.

Lead the architecture and hands-on delivery of scalable, reliable agentic AI platforms for enterprise workflows Drives team adoption of enterprise-authorized AI-assisted engineering practices within the work environment to improve code quality, delivery speed, and operational outcomes (e.g., AI-assisted code review/refactoring, test strategy acceleration, incident/root-cause analysis support), while establishing consistent validation standards (secure coding, peer review, automated testing) and promoting reuse of effective patterns across the team. Applies knowledge of tools within the Software Development Life Cycle toolchain, including enterprise-authorized AI-assisted development and automation capabilities, to improve the value realized by automation. Design and build production-grade AI systems including agents, skills, memory patterns, guardrails, and tool-use orchestration Architect retrieval and context-engineering approaches including embeddings, semantic search, grounding, summarization, and prompt/version management Engineer cloud-native AI services on AWS using containers and serverless patterns, event-driven messaging, and distributed data stores Optimize platform performance across latency, throughput, scalability, caching, context efficiency, and cost controls Build well-governed APIs and integrations that connect AI capabilities to enterprise platforms, tools, and business processes Establish evaluation, experimentation, regression testing, and observability frameworks to continuously improve quality and agent behavior Mentor senior engineers and influence engineering direction through code reviews, architecture forums, and cross-team technical leadership Leverages enterprise-authorized AI coding assist tools within the work environment to improve code quality, delivery speed, and productivity across complex deliverables (e.g., code generation/refactoring, unit test creation, documentation), while validating outputs through peer review, automated testing, and secure coding standards; contributes learnings and reusable patterns to improve broader team effectiveness. Required qualifications, capabilities and skills Formal training or certification on software engineering concepts and 5+ years applied experience Experience architecting and shipping production large language model applications, including agentic workflows and tool integration patterns Demonstrated experience leading effective use of approved AI-assisted software development tools (e.g., for coding, code review, test acceleration, troubleshooting) with the ability to set team expectations for validating AI outputs for correctness, performance, and security. Strong understanding of responsible AI use in engineering workflows, including data sensitivity considerations, secure handling of inputs/outputs, and adherence to resiliency and security expectations; experience coaching engineers on safe, compliant
