JOB DESCRIPTION
If you are a software engineering leader ready to take the reins and drive impact, we've got an opportunity just for you.
As a Director of eSoftware Engineering at JPMorgan Chase within the Equities Electronic Trading team, you will set technical direction and personally contribute to the design and delivery of ultra-low latency market infrastructure used in equities electronic trading. You will build ultra-low latency pipelines spanning market data ingest, processing, and distribution as well as trading and execution workflows, with rigorous verification and production-grade operational controls. This role requires deep networking expertise (including TCP/IP), experience with Layer 1 switching and low-latency connectivity (including microwave), and the ability to take large programs from requirements through delivery, coordinating with internal compute and networking service organizations and managing outside vendors. This is a technical leadership role; will guide the team through architecture, design reviews, and execution. A core priority of this role is to advance the team's adoption of AI-assisted and spec-driven FPGA development and verification workflows, including executable specifications, automated review, and traceability from spec to silicon, with examples such as AI-assisted RTL and testbench generation to improve quality, throughput, and time-to-market.
