We’re seeking a future team member for the role of AI\-Forward Software Engineer — AI Transformation Office , Senior Vice President to join our team. This role is located in London .

We are looking for a hands\-on, AI\-forward engineer to build and ship production\-grade GenAI and agentic automation solutions as part of BNY's centralized AI Transformation Office. This is not a traditional engineering role \- we are not looking for engineers who use AI tools occasionally. We need engineers who have fundamentally changed how they work: using tools like Claude Code and Windsurf daily, moving faster because of it, and bringing that AI\-first mindset to everything from architecture decisions to code reviews.

In this role, you’ll make an impact in the following ways:

  • Analytical skills \- understand the business problem first; leverage AI tools to accelerate solution design, not replace the thinking

  • Initiative \& Ownership \- run with tasks end\-to\-end, from scoping and prototyping to deployment, using AI\-native tooling throughout \- not just for coding, but across the entire workflow including design, testing, and documentation

  • Build and contribute to AI\-forward architecture standards \- including prompt engineering patterns, agentic workflow design, and LLM integration guidelines

  • Work with Product Owners, LOB stakeholders, and architects to design, prototype, and deliver AI\-powered solutions spanning automation, workflow orchestration, and client\-facing tooling

  • Participate in code reviews with an AI\-first lens \- evaluating not just the code, but how effectively AI tooling was leveraged in the build

  • Software engineering experience with demonstrable, recent use of AI\-native development tools as a core part of daily workflow \- not a side habit
To be successful in this role, we’re seeking the following:
  • Required Skills
+ Daily proficiency with AI coding tools such as Claude Code, Windsurf, Cursor, or GitHub Copilot \- this is a baseline requirement, not a differentiator
+ Python and/or Java for backend service development
+ LLM integration experience \- OpenAI, Anthropic, or equivalent APIs
+ MCP, REST APIs, Microservices Architecture
+ Cloud platforms \- AWS, Azure, or GCP
  • Preferred
+ Agentic framework experience \- LangChain, LangGraph, AutoGen, or similar
+ RAG pipeline design and vector database experience (Pinecone, Weaviate, pgvector)
+ Agile / SDLC tooling \- Jira, Git, CI/CD pipelines
