Senior Lead Technology Resiliency Engineer

- Define and evolve the enterprise technology resiliency strategy, aligned to business critical services, regulatory expectations, and long-term technology roadmaps - Establish resiliency design principles and patterns for cloud, hybrid, and on-prem platforms (e.g., multi-region, multi-AZ, active/active, degradation strategies) - Influence architecture decisions to ensure resiliency, recoverability, and operability are built in from inception-not retrofitted - Partner with enterprise and domain architects to embed resiliency requirements into standards, reference architectures, and engineering practices

- Support identification and mapping of Important Business Services and underpinning technology dependencies - Translate business impact tolerances into actionable technology recovery objectives (RTO, RPO, MTO) - Assess end-to-end service resilience, identifying single points of failure across applications, data, infrastructure, vendors, and people - Drive remediation strategies for material resiliency gaps, balancing risk reduction with real-world delivery constraints

- Act as a trusted advisor to engineering teams on fault tolerance, high availability, disaster recovery, and graceful degradation - Review major platform and system designs from a resiliency and operability perspective - Promote modern resiliency practices such as:

- Chaos engineering and failure injection - Automation-first recovery - Observability and service-level indicators - Immutable infrastructure and infrastructure-as-code

- Guide the adoption of resiliency tooling and metrics at scale

- Shape the firm's approach to resilience testing, including scenario-based testing, disaster recovery exercises, and severe-but-plausible events - Design and participate in enterprise simulation exercises involving technology and business stakeholders - Drive a culture of continuous learning through post-incident analysis focused on systemic improvement rather than blame - Ensure lessons learned feed directly into architecture, standards, and engineering practices

- Partner with Risk, Compliance, and Audit to ensure resiliency practices meet internal policy and external regulatory expectations - Contribute to regulatory responses, exams, and remediation programs related to operational and technology resilience - Help define meaningful, decision-useful resiliency metrics and management reporting - Act as a senior point of expertise during regulatory discussions related to technology resilience

- Serve as a subject-matter leader within the resiliency engineering community - Mentor junior engineers and help build resiliency engineering as a distinct capability - Influence senior technology leadership by articulating complex technical risk in clear business terms - Contribute to the long-term evolution of the bank's technology operating model

- 7+ years of Systems Engineering, Technology Architecture experience, or equivalent demonstrated through one or a combination of the following: work experience, training, military experience, education - 7+ years of experience in large-scale technology engineering, architecture, SRE, platform engineering, or infrastructure roles - 7 plus years Proven experience designing and operating highly available, distributed systems in complex enterprise environments - 7+ years' experience with:

- Cloud and hybrid architectures (AWS, Azure, GCP or equivalent) - Disaster recovery and availability patterns - Data replication and consistency models - Observability, monitoring, and incident management

- 7+ years' experience influencing architecture and design decisions at scale

- Experience in banking, capital markets, or other highly regulated industries - Background in Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) or large-scale production operations - Experience with chaos engineering or large-scale resilience testing - Familiarity with service management, ITIL, or modern operating model transformations - Advanced degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience

- Hands-on experience with operational resilience, technology resilience, DR, or business continuity in regulated environments - Ability to translate business impact into technical recovery strategies - Familiarity with regulatory expectations related to technology and operational resilience (e.g., US, UK, EU financial regulators)

- Strong ability to communicate complex technical concepts to non-technical and executive audiences - Experience operating in highly matrixed organizations with multiple stakeholders - Credibility to challenge technology decisions constructively and pragmatically - Track record of driving change through influence rather than authority

- Resiliency is designed in, not discovered during incidents - Critical services have clear, tested, and realistic recovery strategies - Engineering teams view resiliency as an enabler of velocity, not a compliance exercise - Senior leaders have confidence in the firm's ability to withstand disruption - Regulatory discussions shift from assurance-driven to strategy-driven conversations
