As an Applied AI/ML Senior Associate within JPMorgan Chase's Corporate Technology-Risk Technology team, you will serve as a seasoned member of an agile team to design and deliver trusted market-leading technology products in a secure, stable, and scalable way. You are responsible for carrying out critical technology solutions across multiple technical areas within various business functions in support of the firm’s business objectives.
Job Responsibilities
Executes software solutions, design, development, and technical troubleshooting with ability to think beyond routine or conventional approaches to build solutions or break down technical problems
Creates secure and high-quality production code and maintains algorithms that run synchronously with appropriate systems
Produces architecture and design artifacts for complex applications while being accountable for 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
Proactively 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
Required qualifications, capabilities, and skills
Formal training or certification in software engineering concepts, plus 5+ years of applied experience building production Python systems, including web/API services (Flask or FastAPI) and the ML/NLP ecosystem (scikit-learn, pandas, NumPy, spaCy, PyTorch or TensorFlow).
Demonstrated experience taking machine learning models from prototype to production — training, packaging, deployment, monitoring, retraining, and decommissioning — in real-world business applications.
Proven experience working with large datasets and distributed compute (Spark / Databricks or equivalent), with SQL fluency and an understanding of partitioning, performance, and cost.
Hands-on practical experience across system design, application development, testing, and operational stability for services that run on a daily production schedule.
Experience developing, debugging, and maintaining code in a large corporate environment, using modern programming languages and database query languages, with disciplined use of version control and code review.
Working knowledge of LLM application patterns — prompt design, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), embeddings and vector search, structured output, and tool/function calling.
Experience with agentic AI frameworks — multi-agent orchestration, planning and tool use, and integration patterns such as the Model Context Protocol (MCP); familiarity with Google ADK, Arize Phoenix SDK, Claude skills is a must.
Overall knowledge of the Software Development Life Cycle, and a solid understanding of agile delivery practices including CI/CD, Application Resiliency, and Security.
Preferred qualifications, capabilities, and skills
Production experience with Databricks (Delta Lake, Unity Catalog, MLflow, Databricks Jobs) and workflow orchestration with Apache Airflow and strong working knowledge of both supervised and unsupervised techniques, including tree-based and kernel methods (gradient boosting, random forest, SVM) and anomaly-detection approaches such as Isolation Forest, Local Outlier Factor, and locality-sensitive hashing.
Solid grounding in data pre-processing, feature engineering, model selection, hyper-parameter tuning, and evaluation, including choosing appropriate metrics for imbalanced and unlabeled problems.
Applied NLP experience — text-to-SQL / natural-language query, entity extraction and linking, relevancy ranking, summarization, and news or research feed analytics; exposure to computer vision or multi-modal document processing (OCR, layout-aware extraction) is a plus and familiarity with AWS machine learning services such as Amazon Bedrock with EKS-based deployment.
Knowledge of deep learning architectures (CNNs, transformers, sequence models) and of reinforcement learning concepts and their practical applications.
Experience building self-service ML tooling — model catalogues, automated pipelines, feature stores, and explain ability (SHAP, LIME) surfaced to non-technical users with understanding of industry-standard validation and testing for LLMs — ground-truth evaluation datasets, accuracy, hallucination and toxicity metrics, guardrails and content moderation, red-teaming, and embedding evals into CI/CD.
Experience with AI/ML observability (OpenTelemetry, Phoenix, or equivalent tracing) and with model governance, auditability, and control requirements in a regulated financial-services environment and familiarity with financial risk domain concepts — market, credit, counterparty, or investment risk, portfolio exposure, and data-quality controls.
