Be an integral part of an agile team that's constantly pushing the envelope to enhance, build, and deliver top-notch technology products.
Introductory Marketing Language:
We are building the strategic observability platform for one of the world's largest and most complex financial institutions - re-engineering how telemetry and operational insights work at enterprise scale on public cloud. This is a rare opportunity to shape a firm-wide capability from an architectural and engineering perspective, influencing standards and vendor integrations that will be adopted globally. If you are motivated by designing robust, scalable cloud-native platforms - not running incident bridges - this role offers genuine scale, complexity and technical ownership.
As a Senior Lead Software Engineer at JPMorganChase within the Corporate Chief Technology Office, you will lead the engineering of our observability tooling portfolio onto our public cloud platforms, shaping how 10,000+ engineers build, instrument and operate their systems. This is a hands-on technical role focused on platform design, cloud-native architectures, and large-scale distributed systems engineering. We foster a collaborative, innovative, and inclusive team culture.
