Join JPMorgan Chase's Core and Foundational Platforms team, where technology at scale powers the firm's most critical infrastructure. This is a place where your ability to drive clarity, connect strategy to execution, and lead through complexity will have real, measurable impact. You'll work alongside some of the most talented engineers, product leaders, and business partners in the industry — with the resources, scope, and visibility to grow your career in meaningful ways. If you thrive in fast-moving environments, bring structure to ambiguity, and are energized by leading transformation at scale, this role is built for you.
As a Lead Technical Program Manager at JPMorgan Chase within Core and Foundational Platforms, you will serve as a key driver of execution discipline, operating cadence, and organizational effectiveness across a global engineering-led infrastructure organization. You will partner closely with senior engineering leaders, product management, finance, and human resources to translate strategy into coordinated outcomes and ensure delivery progress is visible, actionable, and aligned to the platform's priorities. Your work will directly shape how the organization operates, makes decisions, and delivers impact — across both technical and people dimensions.

- Own the operating cadence and preparation for leadership forums, including monthly business reviews, ensuring robust due diligence, clear storytelling, effective challenge, and timely follow-through on decisions and actions

- Lead priority projects and transformation initiatives, coordinating stakeholders, resolving delivery impediments, and providing transparent reporting and escalation to senior leadership
- Partner with human resources, finance, and business management on resource management, headcount and financial tracking, talent reviews, promotion processes, and organizational communications
- Create and maintain disciplined processes that support consistent execution, leveraging AI-enabled tools and emerging technologies to reduce manual effort and improve the speed and quality of analysis, decision support, and communications
- Prepare data-driven recommendations, executive materials, and concise updates that enable informed decisions and clearly articulate business impact, delivery progress, risks, and required actions
- Establish and run a structured engagement cadence across global locations, including leadership forums, town halls, site visits, and listening sessions, with clear objectives, ownership, and follow-through
- Act as a connector across platform teams, surfacing themes, opportunities, and barriers; translating feedback into practical actions; and providing leadership with clear insight into engagement progress and impact
- Uses enterprise-authorized AI capabilities within the work environment to accelerate program planning and risk synthesis (e.g., consolidating inputs into integrated plans, risk/assumption/issue/dependency logs, and executive-ready updates), validating outputs and handling data according to sensitivity requirements
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
