In alignment with the business strategy, the engineering team is tasked with modernizing the "Collateralized Loan Obligations" platform.

This role serves as a principal systems designer for major application modifications using technical skills and available technologies in the evaluation of client requirements.

Engineering team leads are accountable for the entire lifecycle of both custom and commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) business applications (specifically for existing "Solvas" platform supporting the CLO business), including design, build, and operations. This is a hands-on execution role accountable for application and test-harness code, while ensuring compliance with corporate and regulatory policies, and engineering well-designed, secure, scalable, reliable, and resilient technology solutions.

Primary Responsibilities:

Development Execution: Technical guidance to a team of 5-8 engineers. Lead and contribute to technical design, coding, testing, deployment, and maintenance.

Review key technical development execution stats and implement continuous improvements. Complete and oversee basic to complex systems analysis, design and development. Play a key role as an engineering lead on complex projects. Maintain an excellent functional understanding of the supported application(s).

System Reliability: Ensure reliable technology solutions through effective systems design, development, release management, change control, and incident problem-solving. Maintain efficient operation and effectiveness of supported applications.

Technical Architecture and Design: Author systems architecture documentation, technical specifications, and technical tasks aligned to user stories, with traceability to concrete technical components. Create developer-friendly documentation that is founded in architecture components, well defined, and easily traced from high to low level detail. Maintain accurate systems data as part of enterprise-wide technology tracking tools. Evaluate and understand complex interrelationships and effects among programs, interfacing applications and platforms. Provide highly analytical consulting and leadership in identifying and implementing new uses of information technologies to assist business units in meeting strategic objectives.

Code and Test Harness Management: Create custom code and maintain knowledge of DevOps utilities and test harnesses, perform code reviews, and oversee code merge and elevation.

Team Management: As a people manager, define objectives for team members, provide coaching and performance feedback. Develop a culture of execution excellence by proactively managing talent and performance.

Team Collaboration: Effective formal and informal communication with stakeholders, product owners, scrum masters, and technology teams. Direct and monitor less experienced resources and coordinate development tasks on small to large scope projects. This role requires a significant collaboration with multiple team members and stakeholders.

Compliance: Adhere to internal control standards and address audit points and regulatory issues. Understand M&T Tech's standards for technology risk management, cybersecurity, IT Asset management, Resiliency & Recovery and ensure compliance. Escalate risk-related concerns to management as needed.

Innovation: Recommend new technologies, policies, or processes. Evaluate vendor software.
