Sr Director of Infra Engineering-Advanced Capability Engineering for Mainframe Midrange Compute Plat

Partner with a company that's devoted to shaping the future of infrastructure in financial services.

Let's collaborate to explore uncharted territories and achieve extraordinary feats together.

As a Senior Director of Infrastructure Engineering in the Mainframe and Midrange Compute team at JPMorganChase, you will lead Advanced Capabilities Engineering for the firm's Mainframe and Midrange Compute platforms.

This role is responsible for defining and executing the strategy for applying artificial intelligence-particularly agentic and automation-driven solutions-to transform how core compute platforms are managed, operated, and governed.

You will establish and lead a centralized Advanced Capabilities Engineering function, consolidating existing AI initiatives into a cohesive portfolio with clear architecture, controls, and delivery outcomes.

The focus of this role is on using AI to automate and optimize system management activities (e.g., operations, reliability, remediation, and decision support), not rewriting application workloads such as COBOL or PL/I.

This is a senior leadership role requiring strong technical judgment, experience operating in highly controlled environments, and the ability to influence across a complex, matrixed organization.
