Senior Lead Software Engineer - Ai, Python/java

JPMorgan Chase JPMorgan Chase · Banking · Plano, TX +1 · Corporate Sector

Senior Lead Software Engineer to build and deploy an AI solution for unifying observability data across multi-cloud environments. The role involves creating intelligent systems for correlating health metrics, logs, and traces to provide troubleshooting recommendations and automations, aiming for self-service remediation and outage prediction. It bridges ML, multi-cloud infrastructure, and automated IT operations to build predictive, self-healing solutions, with a strong emphasis on AI-assisted engineering practices and responsible AI use.

What you'd actually do

  1. Build and operationalize LLM/machine learning models for anomaly detection, predictive health monitoring, and forecasting system degradations.
  2. Integrate the AI engine with ticket data and map observability insights against ticket trends, cluster repetitive issues, and quantify the platform's impact on reducing Mean Time to Resolution (MTTR).
  3. Create user-friendly self-service portals or conversational AI interfaces that allow non-expert teams to diagnose and fix infrastructure issues safely.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
