Summary

Your Opportunity

This position is for a senior engineering people leader responsible for enterprise-scale delivery across distributed Java services and modern Angular-based UI platforms. The role leads teams building secure, high-performance, cloud-ready client experiences and provides hands-on technical leadership, architectural governance, and delivery accountability across multiple workstreams within Schwab Technology Services.

This role sits within Schwab Technology Services (STS) in the Software Development & Engineering job family and is accountable for driving delivery excellence across a portfolio of modern services and user interfaces. The leader partners closely with Product, Architecture, and SRE to execute modernization initiatives, improve resiliency and observability, and accelerate time-to-market while maintaining strong engineering and risk-management standards.

Key Responsibilities
  • Lead one or more agile engineering teams delivering Java/Spring-based backend services and Angular UI capabilities, ensuring delivery predictability, quality, and operational stability.
  • Provide technical and architectural leadership across service APIs, UI component architecture, and cloud-native patterns including microservices and containers.
  • Establish and enforce engineering standards including secure SDLC practices, performance budgets, accessibility (WCAG), code quality gates, and automated testing strategies.
  • Partner with Product Owners and business stakeholders to translate outcomes into executable roadmaps, prioritized backlogs, and reliable delivery plans.
  • Drive operational excellence through strong observability practices, incident learnings, release readiness, and SLO-oriented thinking.
  • Coach and develop engineers and team leads, supporting hiring, onboarding, performance management, and long-term leadership development.

What you have

Required Qualifications
  • 8+ years of experience building and supporting large-scale Java applications (Java, Spring/Spring Boot, REST APIs).
  • 5+ years of experience leading engineering delivery as a team lead or people leader across multiple contributors and/or squads.
  • 4+ years of professional experience with Angular, including component architecture, routing, RxJS, and unit/E2E testing.
  • 4+ years of experience delivering cloud-native solutions using CI/CD pipelines with automated quality and security gates.
  • Experience with microservices and containers in cloud environments (e.g., PCF, Kubernetes).
  • Demonstrated ability to collaborate effectively with Product, Architecture, SRE, and partner teams, with strong written and verbal communication skills.

Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience with micro-frontend architectures such as Angular Module Federation.
  • Experience implementing enterprise observability patterns (logs, metrics, traces) and performance tuning across UI and service layers.
  • Financial services experience and familiarity with risk- and compliance-driven delivery environments.
  • Experience using AI-assisted development tools and automation to improve SDLC efficiency.
  • Strong background in Agile delivery, DevOps practices, and scaled engineering execution.
