If you are an experienced mobile engineer who enjoys building, solving difficult problems and helping others deliver better software, we have an opportunity for you.\nAs a Senior Lead Mobile Software Engineer at JPMorganChase within Asset & Wealth Management's International Private Bank Technology organisation, based in Glasgow, you will design, build and improve the observability foundations of native iOS and Android applications for J.P. Morgan Online International. You will bring advanced technical expertise in mobile engineering and platform observability, own complex engineering solutions and make implementation decisions within the agreed technical direction.\nThis is a hands-on technical leadership role. You will contribute directly to production code across both mobile platforms, solve difficult design and operational problems related to app health, performance and reliability, and guide other engineers through substantive technical feedback. Working with engineering leadership, business and Product partners, you will translate client and financial workflows into reliable, observable mobile software, use enterprise-authorised coding agents effectively and demonstrate curiosity beyond routine delivery. You will lead through technical contribution and mentoring, rather than departmental resource or people-management ownership.\nJob Responsibilities\nDesigns and develops secure, high-quality production code for native iOS and Android client applications, instrumenting them for crash reporting, performance monitoring, logging and telemetry; reviews, debugs and improves code written by others.\n\nDrives design and implementation decisions for mobile observability capabilities - including SLIs/SLOs, alerting thresholds, distributed tracing and real user monitoring (RUM) - balancing data integrity, performance, security, reliability, maintainability and operating cost within the agreed technical direction.\n\nProvides technical guidance to engineering and business partners, acting as a subject matter expert in native mobile development and mobile application performance management (APM).\n\nLeads the technical delivery of complex observability initiatives through implementation, testing, integration, controlled migration, release readiness and operational support, including triage and root-cause analysis of production incidents using crash and performance telemetry.\n\nApplies enterprise-authorised coding agents and automation across design, implementation, testing, review and troubleshooting for iOS and Android codebases, creating reusable context, tools and workflows.\n\nDrives effective team adoption of approved AI-assisted engineering practices, validating generated changes through peer review and independent tests for correctness, performance and security, and coaching others on safe use.\n\nWorks closely with business, Product, Design and backend partners to clarify client needs, interpret financial workflows and translate agreed requirements into practical, observable mobile solutions.\n\nImproves engineering standards, instrumentation coverage, automation and resilience for owned mobile applications - establishing dashboards, alerting pipelines and performance baselines - and escalates material risks and cross-domain decisions to the appropriate engineering or control owner.\n\nMentors engineers through code and design reviews, shares reusable observability patterns and knowledge, and contributes to a culture of curiosity, technical excellence and continuous improvement.\n\nRequired Qualifications, Capabilities, and Skills\nFormal training or certification on software engineering concepts and advanced applied experience in native mobile development (Swift/SwiftUI or Objective-C for iOS, and Kotlin/Java with Jetpack libraries for Android).\n\nAdvanced hands-on practical experience delivering system design, application development, testing and operational stability for scalable, client-facing native mobile applications.\n\nStrong practical experience with mobile observability tooling and practices - crash reporting and diagnostics, application performance monitoring, distributed tracing, real user monitoring, structured logging and telemetry pipelines - with the ability to define and operationalise SLIs/SLOs for mobile applications.\n\nAbility to solve complex design and functionality problems independently with limited oversight, explain technical trade-offs between observability coverage, performance overhead and battery/data cost, and recognise when wider decisions require alignment or escalation.\n\nPractical cloud native experience on AWS or a comparable platform supporting mobile backend services and telemetry ingestion, including automated delivery, testing and production support.\n\nDemonstrated effective use of enterprise-authorised coding agents beyond basic code completion, with concrete examples of implementation, review, test acceleration or troubleshooting applied to mobile codebases, and how outputs were verified.\n\nStrong understanding of responsible AI use in engineering, including sensitive-data handling, secure development, resiliency, human review and independent validation; ability to guide peers on compliant practices.\n\nExpertise in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Mathematics, or a related technical field.\n\nEvidence of curiosity and self-directed learning beyond routine delivery, demonstrated through prototypes, open-source work, technical experiments or reusable mobile observability tooling.\n\nEffective technical leadership, mentoring and business communication, with the ability to understand client and financial workflows and work constructively across teams and locations.\n\nPreferred Qualifications, Capabilities, and Skills\nExperience in International Private Banking, wealth or asset management, digital banking, trading or other transaction-sensitive client platforms.\n\nExperience creating reusable coding-agent workflows, engineering skills, context libraries, test harnesses or evaluation tools that improve mobile observability and quality across a team.\n\nExperience with native platform-level performance diagnostics (e.g. Xcode Instruments, Android Profiler) and app-store level stability metrics, vitals and release-health reporting.\n\nBackend or full-stack experience - including API design, distributed systems and telemetry-ingestion services - that complements native mobile and observability expertise and reduces integration complexity and operational cost.","description_format":"text","description_chars":6620,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Commercial & Retail Banks","Wealth Management & Financial Advisors","Asset Management & Funds","Investment Banking & M&A Advisory"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-09T11:57:26Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":62,"band":"ok","label":"Likely open","p_open":1,"p_active":0.623,"p_room":1,"age_days":4,"expected_fill_days":15,"reasons":["conf:2","stale_co","velocity","win:early","comp:brand"],"computed_at":"2026-11-11T05:49:22Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/jpmorganchase-mobile-senior-lead-software-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/jpmorganchase-mobile-senior-lead-software-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-11T15:10:24Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":28242,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-12T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":257},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=257"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fjpmorganchase-mobile-senior-lead-software-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":2,"usd":0.2},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fjpmorganchase-mobile-senior-lead-software-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.1,"usd":0.01},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fjpmorganchase-mobile-senior-lead-software-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/jpmorganchase-mobile-senior-lead-software-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fjpmorganchase-mobile-senior-lead-software-engineer"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3961607}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"jpmorganchase.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3961607},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
