Senior Manager of Software Engineering - AI-Native Component Engineering

About the role

Join a newly formed platform engineering product line at a leading global financial institution, building reusable frameworks, SDKs, tools, and services behind a clean layer of abstraction. This enables thousands of engineers across the enterprise to build software faster and more securely by eliminating redundant implementations of authentication, resiliency, observability, and compliance plumbing.

Our flagship managed framework is already adopted across tens of thousands of code repositories. The mission is to scale this model from a single widely adopted component to a broad portfolio, each engineered to the same high bar and integrated across the enterprise.

AI has reset the clock on how fast large organizations must adapt, raising both the stakes and the payoff of getting reuse right. Components are designed to be agent-native (consumable by LLMs, agents, and modern developer tooling by default, with living documentation), ensuring the building blocks engineers and agents reach for tomorrow are the ones created today.

This is an opportunity to work on genuinely hard problems and build solutions that scale across one of the largest technology organizations in the world. We offer opportunities for career advancement, impactful work using a range of modern technologies, and a supportive, inclusive environment where your ideas matter.
