• Develops secure and high-quality production code, and reviews and debugs code written by others
• 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.
• Identifies opportunities to eliminate or automate remediation of recurring issues to improve overall operational stability of software applications and systems
• Leads evaluation sessions with external vendors, startups, and internal teams to drive outcomes-oriented probing of architectural designs, technical credentials, and applicability for use within existing systems and information architecture
• Designs, develops, codes, and troubleshoots with consideration of upstream and downstream systems and technical implications
• 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
• Applies technical troubleshooting to breakdown solutions and solve technical problems of basic complexity
• Gathers, analyzes, and draws conclusions from large, diverse data sets to identify problems and contribute to decision-making in service of secure, stable application development
• Learns and applies system processes, methodologies, and skills for the development of secure, stable code and systems

Required qualifications, capabilities, and skills:

• Formal training or certification on software engineering concepts and 5+ years applied experience
• Hands-on practical experience delivering system design, application development, testing, and operational stability
• Hands-on experience building, deploying, and maintaining machine learning platforms or infrastructure
• Proficiency in Python and one or more ML frameworks (e.g., TensorFlow, PyTorch, Scikit-learn). Experience with data processing frameworks and tools (e.g., Spark, Pandas, SQL)
• Practical experience with cloud-based ML platforms (e.g., AWS SageMaker, GCP AI Platform, Azure ML) or on-prem ML infrastructure
• 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 adoption within delivery practices
• Proficient in all aspects of the Software Development Life Cycle
• Advanced understanding of agile methodologies such as CI/CD, Application Resiliency, and Security
• In-depth knowledge of the financial services industry and their IT systems

  Practical cloud native experience

Preferred qualifications, capabilities, and skills:

• Familiarity with Databricks for scalable data engineering and ML platform integration
• Experience working with Snowflake for cloud-based data warehousing and analytics
• Exposure to Snorkel AI for programmatic data labeling and training data management
• Experience with containerization and orchestration tools (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes, Airflow)
• Familiarity with feature stores, model registries, and ML metadata management
• Experience with infrastructure-as-code tools (e.g., Terraform, CloudFormation)
• Experience with RESTful APIs and microservices architectures
