Lead software engineer focusing on scalable AI and ML systems, integrating models into microservices, and mentoring junior engineers.
Job Description
Join the Chief Data & Analytics Office (CDAO) at JPMorgan Chase and be part of a team that accelerates the firm's data and analytics journey. We focus on ensuring data quality and security while leveraging insights to promote decision-making and support commercial goals through AI and machine learning.
As an AI ML Lead Software Engineer within the Chief Data & Analytics Office, you will become part of a mission to modernize compliance through scalable and explainable AI. We are building a system that answers the question: "Can I use this data?", not with guesswork, but with prediction/classification, logic, proof, and intelligent automation.
Our work sits at the intersection of applied machine learning, AI reasoning systems, and data governance. We are designing the triage layer of an intelligent decision engine that combines ML-driven classification, LLM-assisted parsing, and formal logic-based verification. This is an opportunity to tackle complex, ambiguous problems that touch every part of the firm's data ecosystem and to build ML solutions that actually make decisions.

What you need to know about the Belfast Tech Scene
If asked to name the birthplace of the RMS Titanic, you might not say Belfast. Similarly, if asked to name Europe's leading destination for foreign direct investment in new software development, Belfast might not come to mind. Yet, both are true. The city has emerged as a tech powerhouse, recently ranked among the best in the U.K. for tech careers — especially for software developers. It also leads the U.K. with the highest percentage of software development jobs advertised.
