Job Description

At Julius Baer, we celebrate and value the individual qualities you bring, enabling you to be impactful, to be entrepreneurial, to be empowered, and to create value beyond wealth. Let’s shape the future of wealth management together.

As a Senior Software Engineer in the Technical Excellence (TechX) team, you will play a key role in shaping the engineering ecosystem of a leading private Swiss bank. The TechX team is responsible for building tools, platforms, and workflows that enable developers to work efficiently, securely, and at scale.

You will act as a technical leader within an operations-focused environment, bridging development and platform engineering to improve productivity, reliability, and developer satisfaction.

- Work within an international, cross-functional engineering organisation
- Operate as a technical thought leader within the department
- Contribute to internal platforms, tooling, and developer workflows

YOUR CHALLENGE

  • Design, build, and maintain scalable tools, services, and frameworks that enhance developer productivity

  • Drive architectural decisions and promote best practices across teams

  • Collaborate closely with development teams to understand their needs and support the adoption of provided services

  • Clearly articulate technical ideas and solutions prior to implementation

  • Facilitate collaboration through whiteboarding sessions (digital and in-person)

  • Actively contribute to an on-site culture (minimum 3 days/week in office)

  • Present concepts, solutions, and innovations to internal audiences

  • Advocate for and evangelize modern engineering practices (DevEx, CI/CD, automation, platform thinking)

YOUR PROFILE

  • 8+ years of software engineering experience with experience working in regulated environments (e.g., banking, finance) as a nice-to-have

  • Strong proficiency in at least two modern programming languages (e.g., C/C++, Rust, Go, Java, TypeScript)

  • Deep understanding of at least one modern build system (e.g., Maven, Gradle, Bazel, Cargo, Nx, Dagger)

  • Experience with backend and frontend frameworks (e.g., Spring, .NET, Axum, React)

  • Strong understanding of API-first and interface-driven design (e.g., HTTP, async systems, service interfaces)

  • Solid experience with cloud platforms and infrastructure as code (e.g., Azure, Kubernetes, Terraform, containerization)

  • Advanced knowledge of Git workflows, including branching strategies, conflict resolution, and maintaining clean history

  • Ability to clearly communicate and distil complex technical concepts as well as strong foundation in data structures and algorithms

  • Curiosity and a deep desire to understand how systems work end-to-end

  • Proven ability to quickly learn and apply new tools and technologies

  • Comfortable working both independently and collaboratively across teams with the strong commitment to code quality, maintainability, and documentation

  • Nice-to-have: Experience with monorepo tooling (e.g., Nx) as well as familiarity with AI-assisted development and agentic workflows to reduce developer friction
