JOB DESCRIPTION
We're looking for a talented, senior engineering professional ready to take their career to new heights at one of the world's most influential companies.
As a Vice President, Software Engineer at JPMorganChase, you will provide strong engineering expertise and technical leadership across agile teams to enhance, build, and deliver trusted market-leading networking technology in a secure, stable, and scalable way. You will be a key contributor to the design and architecture of a firm-wide software-defined networking platform.
This role requires a proven track record of hands-on design and implementation of distributed systems at scale. You will drive technical direction, mentor engineers, contribute to strategic product decisions, and stay current with industry trends, best practices, and technological advances. Experience designing or contributing to SDN controllers is a strong differentiator.
Lead the design and implementation of core platform components, including control plane (OVN), data plane (OVS/DPU), software gateways, load balancers, and IPAM systems.
Architect and build distributed systems with a focus on correctness, fault tolerance, convergence, and performance at scale.
Design and implement distributed algorithms for network control, coordination, state management, and routing across large-scale infrastructure.
Mentor and guide associate and mid-level engineers, fostering a culture of technical rigor, research-driven development, and continuous learning.
Required Qualifications, Capabilities, and Skills
Proven track record of designing and implementing distributed systems at scale, including architecture decisions around consistency, availability, partition tolerance, and convergence.
Deep practical experience with distributed algorithms: consensus protocols, leader election, distributed coordination, state replication, graph-based routing, or scheduling.
