We are seeking a Senior Software Engineer to join a newly formed Shared Services Engineering team supporting multiple enterprise applications across a major financial services organization.
This is a unique opportunity for a well-rounded engineer who enjoys working across application development, DevOps, automation, operational engineering, and platform modernization.

Establish SDLC best practices including branching strategies, versioning, code reviews, and release management
Design and maintain GitHub Actions workflows for build, test, and deployment automation
Modernize legacy systems and refactor existing applications into scalable, maintainable solutions
Build PowerShell automation for ETL processes and operational workflows
Develop reusable logging and monitoring libraries integrating with Splunk, Dynatrace, and Azure Log Analytics
Modernize Managed File Transfer (MFT) processes supporting mission‑critical financial operations
Partner with enterprise infrastructure and security teams while maintaining engineering agility
Support certificate lifecycle management, software deployments, and security patching
Participate in L2/L3 incident response, root cause analysis, and operational improvements
Contribute to disaster recovery planning and system resiliency initiatives
Configure application authentication, SSO integrations, and access management
Collaborate with multiple engineering teams to establish scalable development patterns across the organization
Required Qualifications
6–8 years of hands‑on software engineering experience
Experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions (preferred), Jenkins, Azure DevOps, or GitLab CI
Strong understanding of modern Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) practices
Proficiency in PowerShell (preferred) or Python for developing maintainable automation solutions
Experience modernizing or replacing legacy systems
Experience with enterprise monitoring and observability tools including Splunk, Dynatrace, or Azure Log Analytics
Experience participating in production support, incident management, root cause analysis, and operational improvements
Excellent communication, collaboration, analytical, and problem‑solving skills
Ability to work independently with minimal supervision while supporting multiple engineering teams
Preferred Qualifications
Experience working in Agile software development environments
Knowledge of enterprise cloud security, governance, and compliance
Experience with Managed File Transfer (MFT) modernization
Experience implementing secure automation and enterprise authentication solutions
Familiarity with ETL automation and operational scripting
