Job Description
If you are a hands-on infrastructure engineering leader who thrives at the intersection of platform reliability, automation, and technical strategy, this role offers the scope and scale to make a lasting impact. You will own one of JPMorganChase's most critical observability platforms end to end — setting direction, driving cost efficiency, and staying credible in a terminal and a code review. This is a rare opportunity to lead at a senior level while remaining deeply technical, with visibility across engineering, security, and infrastructure teams.
As a Sr Manager of Infrastructure Engineering at JPMorganChase within the Corporate Technology Observability and Logging Platforms team, you will serve as the senior technical authority for our enterprise Splunk estate — a large, multi-cluster deployment running on AWS and managed entirely as code through SaltStack. You will lead platform architecture, capacity planning, incident root-cause analysis, and the automation tooling that keeps the estate performant, predictable, and cost-efficient at scale. You will partner with application, security, and infrastructure teams while growing and mentoring a team of platform engineers.
