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
