About the Role

As the most senior technical individual contributor at S&P Dow Jones Indices Technology, you will work alongside engineering leaders and product owners to shape the company's technical future. You will operate at the intersection of innovation and market integrity, where systems underpin trillions in investment decisions. The role values sound judgment, transparent trade-offs, and systems that maintain market trust while pushing boundaries in a regulated environment.

Responsibilities

Define and execute technology vision and architecture strategy across S&P DJI's full technology stack, translating forward-looking technical insights into fundable engineering strategies.
Continuously evaluate and pilot emerging technologies beyond agentic AI, separating genuine capabilities from market hype to guide strategic technology investments.
Drive cross-functional collaboration with Product, Platform, Quality Engineering, and Architecture teams to extend forward-looking practices across the complete product development lifecycle.
Establish measurable outcomes and evaluation frameworks for new technical capabilities, partnering with Risk, Compliance, and Internal Audit to ensure regulatory compliance in a benchmark environment.
Build technical capability across engineering teams through reusable patterns, standards, coaching, and hands-on partnership while influencing adoption through credibility rather than formal authority.

Requirements

10+ years of hands-on senior software engineering experience with a demonstrated track record of identifying and driving adoption of forward-leaning technologies before they become mainstream.
Deep, current expertise in emerging technical domains such as agentic AI systems, including LLM-based agents, orchestration frameworks, tool integration, and evaluation methodologies with proven production implementation experience.
Strong software and systems engineering foundations across architecture design, quality engineering, CI/CD pipelines, and platform development with the ability to reason credibly across multiple technical domains.
Proven experience as a senior technical individual contributor setting technical direction, influencing architecture decisions, and driving organizational change through credibility and expertise rather than formal authority.
Executive-level communication skills with the ability to articulate complex technical concepts to diverse audiences including CTOs, risk committees, and senior engineering teams.
Clear technical judgment to evaluate where new technologies genuinely outperform existing solutions, assess acceptable risk levels, and provide candid recommendations.
Experience in financial services, market data, index administration, or other regulated, high-accuracy domains with an understanding of compliance and audit requirements.
Familiarity with data quality and validation at scale, including experience with AI risk frameworks, model risk management, or technology governance in regulated environments.
Track record spanning multiple major technology shifts throughout career, demonstrating adaptability and long-term technical vision beyond current emerging trends.
Active engagement in the broader engineering community through open-source contributions, technical publications, or recognized public technical presence.
