Software Engineer III - Full Stack Engineer

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

As a Software Engineer III – Full Stack Engineer at JPMorgan Chase within the Commercial & Investment Bank, you serve as a seasoned member of an agile team to design and deliver trusted market-leading technology products in a secure, stable, and scalable way.  You will also be a hands-on engineer on an Agile team building and operating Spring Boot microservices running on AWS (ECS Fargate or EKS) with Oracle and PostgreSQL (RDS), and a modern web UI built with either React or Angular. You will design, develop, test, deploy, and support services in a secure, resilient, and observable production environment.  You are responsible for carrying out critical technology solutions across multiple technical areas within various business functions in support of the firm’s business objectives.

Job responsibilities

• Execute software solutions, design, development, and technical troubleshooting with ability to think beyond routine or conventional approaches to build solutions or break down technical problems
• Design, build, and maintain full-stack features across UI and backend services (React or Angular + Java 17 / Spring Boot).
• Develop and operate microservices including API design, service decomposition, and reliability patterns (timeouts, retries, idempotency, DLQs).
• Build integrations using AWS services such as API Gateway, SQS, SNS, S3, and RDS; troubleshoot production issues across services and infrastructure.
• Produce clear design/architecture artifacts (service boundaries, data flows, sequence diagrams, ADRs) and ensure implementation aligns with design constraints.
• Improve engineering quality through code reviews, automated testing, CI/CD, and secure coding practices; contribute to operational excellence (metrics, logs, tracing, runbooks).
• Partner with product and stakeholder teams to refine requirements, estimate work, and deliver iteratively in an Agile environment.
• Create secure and high-quality production code and maintains algorithms that run synchronously with appropriate systems
• Proactively identify hidden problems and patterns in data and uses these insights to drive improvements to coding hygiene and system architecture
• Contribute to software engineering communities of practice and events that explore new and emerging technologies
• Add to team culture of diversity, opportunity, inclusion, and respect

Required qualifications, capabilities, and skills

• Formal training or certification on software engineering concepts and 3+ years applied experience
• Proficiency with either React or Angular (TypeScript, component architecture, state management, performance fundamentals).
• Strong experience with Java 17+ and Spring Boot, including Spring Data JPA / Hibernate (entity modeling, transactions, performance considerations like N+1, pagination).
• Hands-on deployment/operations with AWS ECS Fargate or Kubernetes/EKS, and strong container skills with Docker (image builds, runtime config, troubleshooting).
• Practical experience with API Gateway, SQS, SNS, S3, and relational databases on RDS.
• Proven experience with Oracle and PostgreSQL (schema design, indexing, query tuning, migrations).
• Experience with CI/CD, automated testing (unit/integration), observability (logs/metrics/traces), and application security (authn/authz basics, secrets handling, dependency scanning).
• Strong communication and ability to work independently, prioritize effectively, and deliver in a fast-moving environment.
• Hands-on practical experience in system design, application development, testing, and operational stability
• Experience in developing, debugging, and maintaining code in a large corporate environment with one or more modern programming languages and database querying languages
• Demonstrated knowledge of software applications and technical processes within a technical discipline (e.g., cloud, artificial intelligence, machine learning, mobile, etc.)

Preferred qualifications, capabilities, and skills

• Experience with event-driven architectures and message processing patterns (idempotency, DLQ handling, backoff/retry strategies).
• Infrastructure-as-Code exposure (e.g., Terraform/CloudFormation/CDK) and production operations experience (incident response, on-call, postmortems).
• API design maturity (OpenAPI/Swagger, backward compatibility/versioning, contract testing).
• Performance tuning experience across UI, JVM, and database layers.

• Strong grounding in OOP, design patterns, and microservices best practices.
