- Design, code, test, review and ship production software for HSBC Productivity Suite, spending more than half the time on hands-on engineering.
- Build and operate production-grade generative AI capabilities, agents and integrations from initial design through continuous improvement.
- Provide technical leadership across engineering pods by setting technical vision, making complex design decisions and breaking programs into deliverable increments.
- Shape technical strategy and roadmaps while translating ambiguous user and business needs into measurable engineering outcomes.
- Develop reusable capabilities, frameworks, engineering standards and technology controls, including safe use of AI coding tools and agents.
- Improve production stability, reduce incidents and recovery times, and lead response during production issues.
- Raise engineering capability through pairing, design and code reviews, mentoring and knowledge-sharing without formal line-management responsibility.
Requirements
- Deep hands-on software engineering experience designing, coding and operating user-facing products and distributed services at scale.
- Advanced experience using AI coding tools such as GitHub Copilot and building agents that improve the software development lifecycle.
- Strong Python expertise and practical knowledge of application programming interfaces, microservices, databases, containers, automated testing and continuous integration and delivery.
- Hands-on experience taking artificial intelligence, machine learning and generative AI solutions from experimentation through secure, reliable production use.
- Strong knowledge of large language models, prompt engineering, retrieval-augmented generation, agentic workflows, evaluation, guardrails, observability and responsible AI.
- Strong engineering judgment balancing performance, security, cost, resilience, maintainability, technical debt and delivery pace.
- Experience forming technical vision, influencing priorities, managing complex deliveries and raising standards through technical expertise rather than formal authority.
- Strong ownership, problem-solving and communication skills, including the ability to work autonomously across global and multicultural teams.
Benefits
- Flexible working and opportunities for continuous professional development and career growth within an inclusive and diverse workplace.
