• Proven ability to independently lead ambiguous, high-impact technical initiatives from whiteboard to production, writing high-quality, well-tested code and setting the standard for others across complex, multi-team problem spaces
• Strong experience with cloud-native infrastructure and the modern backend stack: AWS, Kubernetes, Terraform, BuildKite/CircleCI, event-driven architectures (Kafka, MQ), distributed caching (Redis/Memcached), and proficiency in SQL and/or NoSQL databases
• Track record of building secure, compliant internal tools or platforms, with deep appreciation for security controls, access management, audit logging, data governance, and engineering rigor in a regulated financial services environment
• Experience building or integrating with agentic AI systems, including MCP servers, LLM orchestration layers, RAG pipelines, HITL workflows, or evaluation and guardrail frameworks for production agentic workloads
• Proficiency in Go (Golang) as a primary backend language, with willingness to work across Python where applicable in the evolving AI stack
• Utilizes generative AI responsibly, maintaining human oversight to deliver business-ready outputs and drive measurable improvements in workflow efficiency, cost, and quality. 

RESPONSIBILITES

• Drive the evolution of Control Center into an AI-agent-ready, headless operations platform, designing and implementing MCP procedure constructs, agentic guardrails, HITL orchestration, and evaluation frameworks that enable both human and autonomous AI agents to execute sensitive customer operations securely
• Partner with the Engineering Manager and Product counterparts to define architectural roadmaps, author TDDs, lead design reviews, decompose complex initiatives into deliverable milestones, and raise the engineering quality bar through code review and mentorship
• Build and maintain highly reliable, secure, distributed backend services, owning SLO definitions, observability instrumentation, incident response, and operational readiness for Tier-1 platform systems
• Collaborate across EAA engineering teams, Product Engineering, and Security Engineering to deliver cross-functional outcomes and drive shared platform primitives that eliminate duplicated infrastructure across the portfolio
