Exciting Opportunity for Senior Lead Software Engineer

We have an exciting and rewarding opportunity for you to take your software engineering career to the next level.

As a Senior Lead Software Engineer at JPMorganChase within the Atlas On Premise and Next Generation Infrastructure team, you will be a seasoned member of a small, high-paced agile team spanning the UK, Ireland, and the US. You will play a pivotal role in delivering a first-class private cloud offering, focusing on enabling multiple hypervisor platforms and striving for a consistent end user experience across both on premise and public cloud environments. You will not only be a software engineer, but also an innovator — leveraging AI tooling and continuous improvement practices to drive quality and efficiency. Your deep knowledge of software engineering, experience with DevOps and Site Reliability Engineering principles, and passion for new technologies will help shape the future of our infrastructure solutions. As a leader, you will be expected to guide and support other members of the team in their career progression.

Job Responsibilities

  • Execute software solutions across design, development, and technical troubleshooting, thinking beyond routine approaches to build innovative solutions and break down complex technical problems
  • Create secure, high-quality production code and maintain algorithms and systems that support robust private cloud infrastructure
  • Produce architecture and design artifacts for complex applications, ensuring design constraints are met throughout the software development lifecycle
  • Leverage enterprise-authorized AI-assisted coding tools within the work environment to improve code quality, delivery speed, and productivity (e.g., code generation/refactoring, unit test creation, documentation), while validating outputs through peer review, automated testing, and secure coding standards
  • Apply 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
  • Drive adoption of DevOps and Site Reliability Engineering principles across the team to improve system reliability, scalability, and operational efficiency
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams across the UK, Ireland, and the US to deliver consistent end user experiences across on premise and public cloud environments
  • Contribute to software engineering communities of practice and events that explore new and emerging technologies
  • Champion a team culture of diversity, inclusion, opportunity, and respect

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.
