Your Opportunity

 

Schwab Technology Services is at the forefront of delivering innovative, reliable technology that enables clients to manage their financial futures. In this role, you will drive the modernization of legacy ePresentment and ETools platforms into scalable, cloud-ready CMOD capabilities and intuitive portal experiences. You will design and deliver full stack solutions that power high-volume, business-critical systems, collaborating closely with engineers, architects, product owners, and UX partners to solve complex technical challenges and deliver measurable outcomes.

 

You will play a key leadership role in shaping engineering practices, guiding design decisions, leading code reviews, mentoring team members, and establishing high standards for quality and performance. Leveraging modern development approaches including DevOps, Site Reliability Engineering, and AI-assisted workflows, you will optimize development velocity while maintaining stability and security. Your work will directly influence system scalability, reliability, and user experience, while enabling your team to adapt quickly to evolving business needs and deliver meaningful value to clients.

 

Demonstrated exposure to, or hands-on experience with, GenAI coding assistants used across day-to-day engineering workflows in the SDLC—implementation, refactoring, unit testing, regression support, code reviews, scripting/automation, troubleshooting, and documentation—while applying engineering judgment and validation. Practical familiarity with tools such as GitHub Copilot or Claude Code is expected.

 

This is an opportunity to apply deep technical expertise while continuously expanding your skills in modern engineering practices, including agentic development, cloud-native architectures, and AI-assisted software delivery, all within a highly collaborative and outcomes-driven environment.
