• Executes software solutions, design, development, and technical troubleshooting.
• 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.
• 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.
• Creates secure and high-quality production code and maintains algorithms that run synchronously with appropriate systems.
• Produces or contributes to architecture and design artifacts for applications while ensuring design constraints are met by software code development.
• Gathers, analyzes, synthesizes, and develops visualizations and reporting from large, diverse data sets in service of continuous improvement of software applications and systems.
• Identifies hidden problems and patterns in data and uses these insights to drive improvements to coding hygiene and system architecture.
• Contributes to software engineering communities of practice and events that explore new and emerging technologies.
• Adds to team culture of diversity, opportunity, inclusion, and respect.

Requirements & Tech Stack

• Hands-on practical experience in system design, application development, testing, and operational stability.
• Proficient in coding in Java or Python languages.
• Experience in developing, debugging, and maintaining code in a large corporate environment with one or more modern programming languages and database querying languages.
• Hands-on experience using enterprise-authorized AI-assisted software development tools within the work environment (e.g., for coding, test creation, troubleshooting, or documentation) with demonstrated ability to critically evaluate, validate, and refine AI-generated outputs for correctness, performance, and security.
• Understanding of responsible AI use in engineering workflows, including data sensitivity considerations, secure handling of inputs/outputs, and adherence to resiliency and security expectations; ability to guide peers on safe and effective usage within team practices.
• Overall knowledge of the Software Development Life Cycle.
• Understanding of agile methodologies such as CI/CD, Application Resiliency, and Security.
• Knowledge of software applications and technical processes within a technical discipline (e.g., cloud, artificial intelligence, machine learning, mobile, etc.).

Qualifications

• Familiarity with modern front-end technologies.
• Exposure to cloud technologies.

Role Level

JPMorganChase is looking to hire Software Engineers at Software Engineer II and Software Engineer III levels. Placement will be determined based on a skills-based assessment and candidate interview. The assessment will evaluate the ability to perform basic coding and systems design responsibilities.

• Software Engineer II: Requires the ability to understand advanced features of a coding language, design a viable system, and solve functional problems through basic language applications.
• Software Engineer III: Requires a higher level of proficiency and the ability to function independently, including using and explaining advanced features of a coding language, designing systems across technologies and platforms, solving functional and non-functional problems through an application of language best practices, as well as assessing issues broadly, identifying alternative or innovative solutions, collaborating effectively, and providing guidance to others.
