Join a team that is redefining what's possible in cloud infrastructure engineering — where your contributions directly shape the technology powering global fixed income markets. At JPMorganChase, you'll work alongside talented engineers and product owners in a collaborative, growth-oriented environment that values curiosity, inclusion, and technical excellence. This is an exciting opportunity to build your skills in cloud-native infrastructure at scale, contribute to cutting-edge financial technology, and grow across both infrastructure and application development. If you're passionate about building resilient systems and want your work to have real-world impact, this is the role for you.
As a Software Engineer II at JPMorganChase within the Global Technology team, you will be a key contributor on the infrastructure side of the team, supporting the cloud infrastructure that underpins Portfolio Management capabilities for the Fixed Income business. You will help build, manage, and support the AWS infrastructure for various portfolio management services — including what-if analysis, order sizing, automated pre-trade compliance checks, and order submission — ensuring these systems are reliable, scalable, and production-ready. You will be part of a cross-functional team of engineers and product owners building the Spectrum Portfolio Management Fixed Income product, working primarily on a large, Terraform-driven estate on AWS, with the opportunity to grow into server-side development in Java (Spring Boot) and Kotlin over time.
