Java Fullstack Software Engineer III - Kubernetes / React
At JPMorganChase, we build technology that powers some of the most complex and consequential financial operations in the world — and we are looking for engineers who are ready to grow with us. Join a team where your full-stack expertise shapes the platforms that support management and operational functions across the Commercial & Investment Bank, and where your career development is just as important as the products you deliver.
As a Software Engineer III at JPMorganChase within the Commercial & Investment Bank Management and Support Functions Technology team in Tampa, FL, you will serve as a seasoned member of an agile engineering team responsible for designing and delivering secure, scalable, and reliable full-stack software solutions. You will build robust Java backend services alongside modern React front-end interfaces, deploy and manage containerized workloads on Kubernetes, and collaborate with cross-functional partners to deliver technology that supports critical business operations at scale. This is an opportunity to deepen your technical craft, embrace AI-assisted development practices, and contribute to a culture of inclusion, innovation, and continuous improvement.
