As a Senior Software Engineer at BMO, you will be a hands-on technical leader responsible for the design, development, and ownership of complex, enterprise-grade applications and services. You will lead end-to-end technical solutions, guide teams through ambiguity, and ensure the delivery of secure, scalable, and business-aligned systems within a modern cloud and microservices ecosystem.

This role combines deep technical expertise with strong leadership, mentorship, and accountability for solution quality and outcomes.

Key Responsibilities
  • Own the design, development, and ongoing health of complex applications or services, taking accountability for technical quality, resiliency, and performance.
  • Lead end-to-end technical design, translating business requirements into scalable, secure, and maintainable solutions.
  • Design and build applications using Java and Spring Boot within a microservices and cloud-native architecture.
  • Lead and support application integrations using APIs, MQ, Kafka, and SFTP (RESTful services, JSON, XML).
  • Develop and optimize data solutions using Oracle SQL.
  • Use AI-assisted tools to analyze large or complex codebases, identify technical debt, and assess cross-system impacts during design, modernization, and change initiatives.
  • Apply AI to accelerate solution design exploration, architecture evaluation, prototyping, and test strategy improvement.
  • Leverage AI during complex production issue analysis, incident triage, and root-cause investigations to reduce mean time to resolution and improve system reliability.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve complex system issues, leading root-cause analysis and implementing long-term fixes.
  • Set and enforce engineering standards for code quality, testing (SIT/UAT), security, performance, and SDLC best practices.
  • Provide technical leadership and mentorship to junior and intermediate engineers across coding standards, solution design, testing practices, and modern engineering approaches.
  • Mentor and guide engineers on the effective, responsible, and judicious use of AI throughout the software development lifecycle.
  • Guide teams through technical ambiguity, helping define direction, trade-offs, and implementation approaches.
  • Collaborate with business partners, architects, and product teams to ensure solutions are aligned with business priorities.
  • Contribute to continuous improvement of engineering processes, tools, and delivery practices.
Leadership & Ownership Expectations
  • Demonstrated ownership of applications or services, with the ability to clearly explain what was built, your role, and the business and technical impact delivered.
  • Experience setting clear expectations for development quality, delivery timelines, and engineering best practices.
  • Proven ability to influence technical decisions and raise the bar for team performance, system quality, and operational excellence.
  • Experience working in enterprise environments; banking or financial services experience preferred.
  • Ability to set the standard for responsible AI usage, including adherence to data privacy, security, and regulatory compliance expectations.
Required AI Capabilities
  • Hands-on experience using AI-assisted coding or developer productivity tools, such as Microsoft Copilot, GitHub Copilot, or similar tools, in day-to-day development workflows.
  • Strong judgment and accountability in reviewing, validating, and refining AI-generated code, designs, and technical recommendations to ensure correctness, security, maintainability, and alignment with enterprise standards.
  • Solid understanding of responsible, ethical, and secure AI usage in an enterprise environment, including data privacy, intellectual property protection, regulatory considerations, and secure software development practices.
Qualifications & Experience
  • 6+ years of professional software development experience, with a related post-secondary degree or equivalent experience.
  • Hands-on experience delivering production systems in large, complex enterprise environments.
  • Strong communication skills, with the ability to articulate complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Technical Skills
  • Languages & Frameworks: Java, Spring Boot
  • Architecture: Microservices, distributed systems
  • Integration: APIs, MQ, Kafka, SFTP; REST, JSON, XML
  • Databases: Oracle SQL
  • Cloud: AWS (EC2, EKS, Lambda, S3, RDS, Redshift, Bedrock)
  • SDLC & Testing: Full SDLC ownership, SIT/UAT
AI & Cloud Experience
  • Recent AI / GenAI experience (within the past 3 months) using AI to solve real technical or business problems, including:
    • AI-assisted code analysis, refactoring, and technical debt assessment
    • AI-enabled design exploration, prototyping, and test strategy improvement
    • AI-supported production issue investigation and root-cause analysis
  • Experience integrating AI/ML/GenAI tools or consuming AI services and APIs (e.g., Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude).
  • AWS experience within the past 12 months, including deploying, hosting, and supporting applications in AWS-based environments.
