Lead technical discovery, solution design, complexity estimation, and implementation for high-impact initiatives. Coach engineers via code reviews, pairing, technical stories, and pragmatic engineering standards. Drive adoption of enterprise-approved AI-assisted engineering practices to improve quality, speed, and operational outcomes. Apply appropriate architectural patterns (DDD, microservices, event-driven, cloud-native) where they add clear value. Use AI coding tools (e.g., Claude Code, GitHub Copilot) to accelerate understanding, delivery, testing, debugging, docs, and modernization. Create high-quality prompts and reusable guidance that provide AI agents with necessary business, architecture, and repo context. Validate all AI-generated changes (secure coding, peer review, automated testing), keep edits focused, protect sensitive data, and remain accountable for outcomes. Improve CI/CD, test automation, developer experience, and operational readiness by reducing manual effort and tightening feedback loops. Required qualifications, capabilities, and skills: Formal training or certification on software engineering concepts and 5+ years applied experience 10+ years of hands-on enterprise software engineering experience using Java, J2EE, REST APIs, Spring Boot, Hibernate or another ORM, microservices, and relational databases such as Oracle or Sybase. 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 Strong experience designing highly scalable, secure, resilient, and observable distributed systems. Deep understanding of object-oriented design, Domain-Driven Design, microservices patterns, client-server architecture, and modern cloud-native architectures. Strong test-driven development skills and practical experience with JUnit, Mockito, Cucumber, or comparable automation frameworks. Proficiency in SQL, complex queries, joins, stored procedures, views, indexes, and database change management; Liquibase experience is beneficial. Hands-on experience building CI/CD pipelines using Git, Maven, Jenkins, SonarQube, or equivalent tools.

Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with excellent attention to detail and the ability to communicate complex ideas clearly. Preferred qualifications, capabilities, and skills: Front-end development with React, Angular, TypeScript, JavaScript, HTML, and state-management libraries such as Redux. Event-driven processing with Kafka or a comparable messaging platform. Observability and monitoring with Dynatrace, Splunk, Grafana, AppDynamics, or similar technologies. Cloud Foundry or other public/private cloud platforms. Practical experience with Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, or similar AI coding assistants, including repository-level context, agentic workflows, automated test generation, code review, and documentation. Experience defining guardrails and validation practices for responsible AI-assisted development, including human review, secure data handling, focused changes, and measurable test coverage. Banking, wealth management, managed accounts, or broader financial-services domain knowledge.
