As a tenured Software Development Engineer, you will design and implement distributed systems and data-intensive applications that support critical investment capabilities at Capital Group. You will architect and own major services, data workflows, and analytics-driven features that directly contribute to delivering long-term value to our investors. Where helpful, you will leverage AI tools and intelligent automation to accelerate development and improve engineering productivity. Our domain is deeply analytical and increasingly AI-enabled. As we expand our use of Generative AI and emerging AI-driven capabilities, you will help shape how intelligent services are thoughtfully integrated into our production systems. You will contribute to building scalable foundations that enable AI-powered workflows, automation, and decision support - ensuring reliability, performance, and enterprise-grade quality. You will work across backend services, cloud-native architectures, and modern data platforms to deliver pragmatic solutions to complex computational challenges. You will also help design and operationalize agentic systems (LLM-powered agents and tools) that automate workflows, assist decision-making, and safely interact with enterprise data and services. You will live by the principle: "you ship it, you own it." From ideation through production support, you will design, build, operate, and continuously improve the systems you create. You will act as a force multiplier - mentoring engineers, influencing technical direction, and setting a high bar for craftsmanship, simplicity, and operational excellence. "I am the person Capital Group is looking for." You have 6+ years of professional software development experience in one or more modern languages such as Python, C#, Java, Go, or similar. You have designed, built, and operated distributed systems in production environments. You bring a cloud-first mindset, with hands-on experience building scalable services on AWS or similar platforms. You have strong data engineering fundamentals and can build scalable, reliable data products (batch and streaming) across the full lifecycle: ingestion, quality, transformation, orchestration, and serving. You are comfortable with lakehouse / warehouse patterns and governance (e.g., Delta/Parquet, catalogs/lineage, access controls), and you design for data quality, auditability, and reproducibility. You can translate investment-domain needs into technical solutions and understand the importance of accuracy, timeliness, and controls. You can build and operate agentic workflows end-to-end: tool/function design, grounding (RAG/semantic retrieval), planning/execution patterns, evaluation, monitoring, and guardrails (security, privacy, prompt-injection resistance, and safe tool use). You are interested in and motivated by the practical application of Generative AI and AI-enabled capabilities/tools in all aspects of SDLC. You design pragmatic solutions to complex analytical problems and balance innovation with operational excellence. You identify root causes of systemic issues and drive long-term, sustainable improvements. You uphold disciplined engineering practices, including automated testing, CI/CD, observability
