Lead Software Engineer - Quality Assurance / Test Automation / Agentic Systems

We have an opportunity to impact your career and provide an adventure where you can push the limits of what's possible.

As a Lead Software Engineer at JPMorganChase within the Chief Technology Office (CTO) - Identity & Access Management (IAM), you are an integral part of an agile team that works to enhance, build, and deliver trusted market-leading technology products in a secure, stable, and scalable way.

As a core technical contributor, you are responsible for building critical technology solutions across multiple technical areas working closely with various business functions and partners in support of the firm's business objectives.

You will be responsible for building, integrating, and operating enterprise-scale automation and an agentic, human-gated testing ecosystem that accelerates delivery while protecting quality, controls, and auditability.

This role will align with user-journey-led quality, partner integration readiness, and an agentic test framework.

While AI-enabled IDEs can accelerate test creation, this position exists to engineer what AI alone cannot reliably own in a complex, fast-changing IAM stack: deterministic test data, stable test environments, integration simulation, coverage integrity, and release-grade evidence across environments.

You will champion end-to-end journeys across AuthE Global Product stack, enabling True Continuous Delivery with fast, compliant, evidence-based releases.
