Join a team that is redefining what's possible in cloud infrastructure engineering

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.

About the Role

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.

Job responsibilities

  • Build and maintain scalable, resilient AWS infrastructure using Terraform as modular, single-purpose stacks, supporting core services such as EKS, RDS (including Oracle), ElastiCache, S3, EFS, Amazon MSK (managed Kafka), KMS, Secrets Manager, EventBridge, SNS, CloudWatch, and Lambda
  • Support Amazon EKS lifecycle operations, including cluster version upgrades, node group and add-on updates, and remediation with minimal disruption to production workloads
  • Monitor and support the health of the AWS estate, including triage, root-cause analysis, remediation, and participation in incident and problem management processes
  • Contribute to the build and maintenance of CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins) that apply infrastructure changes safely and reliably
  • Instrument the estate for observability using tools such as Datadog, CloudWatch, and Dynatrace, and use telemetry insights to support improvements to infrastructure hygiene
  • Uses enterprise-authorized AI capabilities within the work environment to accelerate design comprehension and coding support (e.g., drafting unit tests and documentation), validating outputs and handling data according to sensitivity and security requirements
  • Contribute to server-side development on the Spectrum Portfolio Management Fixed Income product (Java and/or Kotlin, Spring Boot) as your skills expand
  • Support 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.
