OverviewJob PurposeWe're seeking a highly skilled Senior Developer to join the cross-cutting Enterprise Architecture team within ICE's Fixed Income and Data Services (FIDS) division.
This role sits at the intersection of architecture, developer experience, and platform engineering - helping to define, build, and scale frameworks and systems that power development across our business units. You'll work on initiatives that span teams and technologies: integrating observability frameworks like OpenTelemetry across hundreds of applications, building internal AI and MCP proof-of-concepts, and maintaining our declarative YAML-based data pipeline framework that simplifies Airflow and infrastructure complexity for thousands of workflows. This is a great opportunity to influence the core of how hundreds of engineers at ICE build and deliver software. You'll be part of a small, senior, and highly visible team focused on accelerating innovation, improving reliability, and setting the standard for development excellence across our products and data platforms.
This position is ideal for a polyglot engineer who is comfortable designing distributed systems, building automation and tooling, and enabling other developers to deliver faster, safer, and smarter.
Responsibilities- Design, develop, and maintain reusable frameworks and developer tools that streamline application and data pipeline development across teams
- Collaborate with architects and engineering leads to define patterns, conventions, and best practices for observability, data lineage, and platform telemetry
- Lead proof-of-concepts (POCs) for emerging technologies such as LLM integration via MCP, automated test frameworks, and developer productivity tooling
- Partner with application teams to instrument distributed systems and ensure scalability, reliability, and traceability in production
- Contribute to CI/CD automation, developer workflow improvements, and self-service capabilities that reduce friction in delivery pipelines
- Advocate for developer experience (DevEx), simplifying complex processes through automation, documentation, and developer-friendly abstractions
- Mentor junior developers and collaborate across multiple business units on cross-functional projects
Knowledge and Experience- 6+ years of professional software development experience, with at least 2 years working on platform or framework-level initiatives
- Expertise in at least two major programming languages (e.g., Python, Java, TypeScript, or Go), with proficiency across the stack
- Experience building and operating distributed systems at enterprise scale
- Familiarity with OpenTelemetry or similar observability frameworks
- Strong understanding of CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, and infrastructure-as-code principles
- Experience developing developer tools, SDKs, or internal frameworks used by other teams
- Ability to debug complex production issues across layers of the stack
- Excellent communication and cross-team collaboration skills
Preferred Knowledge and Experience- Prior experience building internal developer platforms or frameworks ("paved roads")
- Experience with declarative data-pipeline frameworks
- Familiarity with AI/LLM integrations, plugin architectures, or agentic workflows
- Experience leveraging AI tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code) to debug, develop unit tests and generate test cases from requirements documents
- Exposure to IaC, Containerization and Continuous Delivery technologies
- Familiarity with OLAP databases and technologies at petabyte scale
- Strong understanding of software observability, metrics collection, and data lineage
- Contributions to open-source or internal developer tooling projects
