Principal Platform Engineer

As a Principal Engineer within the Global Transaction Banking (GTB) program, you will bring together enterprise-scale technical leadership and hands-on engineering to build the next-generation GTB Platform. This is not a strategy-only role — you will be actively in the code: designing, prototyping, and validating core platform capabilities. You will leverage modern AI-assisted development tools as a core part of your engineering workflow, owning the platform's foundation, velocity, scalability, and resiliency — while driving higher quality and broader adoption of engineering best practices across teams.

Your focus will extend to applying disruptive technologies — particularly real-time AI inferencing and decisioning in Platforms such as Azure/Kubernetes — to elevate platform readiness, accelerate business delivery, strengthen technical resilience, and reduce cost of ownership. Working in close partnership with technology executives, senior leaders, and engineers, you will play a central role in shaping the overall Platform Engineering and GTB technology strategy.

Bachelor's degree/University degree or equivalent experience
