About the Role

Wells Fargo is seeking a hands‑on Specialty Software Engineering Senior Manager to lead the design, development, and delivery of low‑latency electronic trading platforms within our Capital Markets technology organization.

This role is responsible for managing highly specialized engineering teams building performance‑critical trading systems at global scale. Success in this position requires a leader who combines people leadership with deep, ongoing technical contribution—someone who remains close to the code, architecture, and runtime behavior of low‑latency systems.

While this is a management role, it is explicitly not a hands‑off position. You will stay actively involved in system design, code reviews, complex problem solving, and key implementation decisions, partnering closely with product managers, architects, traders, and senior technology leaders to deliver resilient, compliant, and high‑throughput platforms.

Key Responsibilities

In this role, you will:

• Lead, coach, and develop engineering managers and senior engineers, while remaining personally engaged in critical technical decisions and implementation details

• Provide direct hands‑on technical leadership for low‑latency, high‑throughput electronic trading platforms, ensuring delivery of high‑quality, resilient, and performant solutions

• Stay actively involved in architecture definition, design reviews, and selected code paths, particularly in latency‑sensitive, complex, or high‑risk areas

• Ensure consistent adherence to Wells Fargo Banking Platform Architecture, non‑functional requirements, and enterprise engineering standards—while pragmatically balancing performance and delivery needs

• Partner with architects and senior engineers to evolve systems toward target‑state architectures, including application modernization, cloud readiness, and data strategy, with direct technical oversight

• Serve as the technical and delivery owner for the product during cross‑team planning, dependency management, and execution

• Identify, escalate, and personally help drive resolution of complex technology challenges, including performance bottlenecks, concurrency issues, build and deployment failures, and operational risk

• Act as an escalation point for scrum masters and delivery teams, removing impediments through technical intervention as well as organizational influence

• Conduct deep design reviews, code reviews, and post‑incident analysis, guiding engineers on performance tuning, correctness, and maintainability

• Ensure systems meet enterprise standards for security, stability, scalability, resilience, and regulatory compliance, proactively identifying and mitigating both technical and operational risk

• Partner closely with Product Managers and Product Owners to influence technology priorities and solution design, while advocating practical Agile and DevOps practices suited for low‑latency environments

• Manage interactions with third‑party vendors and service providers, ensuring technical alignment and integration quality

• Own resource and financial planning, balancing hands‑on technical needs with longer‑term delivery and staffing strategy

• Hire, retain, and develop top‑tier engineering talent; model strong engineering behavior and build a culture of technical excellence, accountability, and continuous learning

• Define and govern the hands‑on use of AI‑assisted and LLM‑based engineering capabilities (e.g., prompt‑driven development, test generation, diagnostics, documentation), ensuring tangible productivity gains without compromising quality or control

• Architect and guide enterprise‑grade LLM integrations, including MCP‑based services, remaining personally involved in design decisions to ensure compliance with Wells Fargo security, risk, and regulatory standards

Required Qualifications:

• 7+ years of Specialty Software Engineering experience, or equivalent demonstrated through work experience, training, military experience, or education

• 3+ years of management or leadership experience

• 3+ years of engineering management experience, with a clear record of remaining hands‑on in technical delivery

• 3+ years of experience in the securities or capital markets industry

Desired Qualifications:

• Advanced understanding of capital markets business processes and the electronic trading lifecycle

• Hands‑on experience building and operating low‑latency, high‑throughput transactional systems

• Strong command of core computer science fundamentals, including system design, algorithms, concurrency, and data structures

• Familiarity with statistical or mathematical models relevant to trading or market data

• Working knowledge of SEC, FINRA, and relevant international regulatory requirements

• Strong track record leading delivery of complex, distributed, low‑latency systems with moderate to high business and technology risk

• Demonstrated ability to partner with product, architecture, and business stakeholders while still owning deep technical outcomes

• Direct experience designing and implementing APIs for Order Management, Straight‑Through Processing, and market data connectivity

• Experience delivering global electronic trading platforms, including non‑USD or emerging‑market products (e.g., LATAM currencies)

• Hands‑on experience implementing automated testing, CI/CD, and zero‑touch release pipelines in performance‑critical environments

• Experience leading globally distributed teams in a matrix organization

• Practical experience integrating Large Language Models (LLMs) in enterprise environments with an emphasis on governance and traceability

• Familiarity with agentic AI workflows and MCP‑based SDLC patterns is a strong plus

• FINRA Series 7 and/or Series 63 licenses are a plus

Location:

• New York, NY – 150 E 42nd St

• Charlotte, NC – 300 S Brevard St

This is a hybrid role, requiring 3 days per week in the office at one of the listed locations.
