About this role:

Wells Fargo is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to join a high-impact technology team supporting critical initiatives within our Capital Markets and regulatory landscape. This is an opportunity to work on complex, business-critical systems where you’ll design and deliver scalable solutions that directly support trading, risk, and compliance functions. You’ll be part of a collaborative environment that values innovation, engineering excellence, and continuous learning.

In this role, you’ll take ownership of key technical deliverables while contributing to broader strategic initiatives across the platform. You’ll work closely with business and technology stakeholders to solve challenging problems, influence design decisions, and help drive modern engineering practices including event-driven architectures, data governance, and cloud-native solutions. This is an ideal role for someone looking to deepen their technical expertise while making a tangible impact in a highly regulated, fast-paced financial environment.

In this role, you will:

  • Lead moderately complex initiatives and deliverables within technical domain environments
  • Contribute to large scale planning of strategies
  • Design, code, test, debug, and document for projects and programs associated with technology domain, including upgrades and deployments
  • Review moderately complex technical challenges that require an in-depth evaluation of technologies and procedures
  • Resolve moderately complex issues and lead a team to meet existing client needs or potential new clients needs while leveraging solid understanding of the function, policies, procedures, or compliance requirements
  • Collaborate and consult with peers, colleagues, and mid-level managers to resolve technical challenges and achieve goals
  • Lead projects and act as an escalation point, provide guidance and direction to less experienced staff
  • Implement strong data governance, lineage, and reconciliation controls to ensure accuracy and completeness of reported data

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.
