Key skills for this role
The Robotic Process Automation team operates as a transversal Center of Excellence (CoE) serving the entire bank, reporting directly to the VP of Data Engineering. Our core mandate is to drive enterprise-wide efficiency, mitigate regulatory risk, and unlock critical data from complex or legacy systems where traditional integration methods are not possible.
Currently operating as a lean group, the team is on the cusp of a major transformation. We are evolving from a reactive, service-oriented model into a highly structured, strategic engineering practice. We work within an Agile framework that is tightly integrated with the bank's broader enterprise architecture and intake processes. When new initiatives require automation, dedicated Project Managers handle the requirements and backlog population, allowing our engineers to focus strictly on technical design, robust execution, and system performance.
You are a senior software engineer who happens to specialize in automation, not a developer who just builds bots. You thrive in environments that require both technical mastery and strategic vision. Where others see legacy systems or broken processes, you see a mandate for transformation. You are comfortable stepping into a team that is early in its maturity journey and taking the reins to build a robust, scalable engineering foundation.
You don't just execute requirements; you challenge them, seeking API-first solutions and designing for resilience, SLAs, and long-term maintainability. You believe that RPA and low-code platforms require the exact same SDLC rigor, CI/CD discipline, and observability as any traditional software product. You are highly autonomous, driven by the challenge of reducing technical debt, and eager to mentor others while setting the technical standard for an expanding enterprise practice.
