About this role
We have an opportunity to impact your career and provide an adventure where you can push the limits of what's possible.
As a Lead Software Engineer at JPMorganChase within the CONSUMER & COMMUNITY BANKING, you are an integral part of an agile team that works to enhance, build, and deliver trusted market-leading technology products in a secure, stable, and scalable way. As a core technical contributor, you are responsible for conducting critical technology solutions across multiple technical areas within various business functions in support of the firm’s business objectives.
Job responsibilities
• Design, build, and maintain iOS features using Swift (and UIKit/SwiftUI), delivering high-quality user experiences across supported iPhone/iPad devices and iOS versions. • Set and enforce standards for security, performance, accessibility, stability, and production readiness (telemetry/monitoring, incident prevention). • Drive CI/CD for Android (build automation, unit/instrumentation/UI tests, static analysis, signing and release workflows) and improve developer productivity. • Partner with Product, Design, Backend, and QA to deliver end-to-end solutions; manage technical dependencies and provide clear technical direction and estimates. • Use JPMorganChase-approved AI-assisted development tools (e.g., Claude AI where approved) to accelerate development/change work (refactoring, test generation, documentation) with rigorous human validation. • Drives team adoption of enterprise-authorized AI-assisted engineering practices within the work environment to improve code quality, delivery speed, and operational outcomes (e.g., AI-assisted code review/refactoring, test strategy acceleration, incident/root-cause analysis support), while establishing consistent validation standards (secure coding, peer review, automated testing) and promoting reuse of effective patterns across the team. • 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. • Integrate with backend services (REST/GraphQL), implement secure authentication flows, and ensure safe handling of local storage and network communications. • Build and maintain automated tests (unit and UI tests) and improve app stability and performance (crash reduction, responsiveness, battery/memory considerations). • Drive CI/CD improvements for iOS builds (build automation, lint/static checks, test automation, signing/provisioning, release workflows) and use JP Morgan Chase-approved AI-assisted tools (e.g., Claude AI where approved) to accelerate refactoring, test generation, and documentation with rigorous validation. Required qualifications, capabilities, and skills
• Formal training or certification on software engineering concepts and 5+ years applied experience • Strong hands-on iOS development experience with Swift and iOS SDK, plus modern architecture patterns (e.g., MVVM/Clean Architecture). • Experience building UI using UIKit and/or SwiftUI, including accessibility and responsive layout practices. • Experience with networking, persistence (e.g., Keychain and local storage patterns), and secure coding practices for mobile. • Demonstrated technical leadership (mentoring, driving standards, owning outcomes) and disciplined use of AI coding assistants (Claude AI or equivalent where approved) with verification. • 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 • Proficient in all aspects of the Software Development Life Cycle • Advanced understanding of agile methodologies such as CI/CD, Application Resiliency, and Security • In-depth knowledge of the financial services industry and their IT systems
Preferred qualifications, capabilities, and skills
• xperience with modularization (SPM/CocoaPods/Carthage as applicable), shared libraries, and scaling iOS codebases across teams. • Experience with performance and stability tooling (Instruments, crash analytics, memory/leak debugging). • Familiarity with mobile security best practices (OWASP MASVS awareness, secure networking, certificate pinning where applicable, secrets handling). • Experience with release strategies (feature flags, phased rollouts) and operational readiness (runbooks, monitoring). • Experience mentoring engineers and improving delivery metrics (cycle time, defect escape, app stability).
