Senior Software Engineer

About This Role

• Wells Fargo is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to design and deliver modern, scalable, and secure full-stack applications using Python and Angular. The role will contribute to building customer- and employee-facing platforms that integrate with enterprise services, enable automation, and support a risk-aware, compliance-driven operating environment.

In this role, you will

• Lead moderately complex initiatives and deliverables within the technical domain, including end-to-end ownership of features from design through production support.
• Design, code, test, debug, and document software solutions, including upgrades and deployments, ensuring maintainability and scalability.
• Evaluate and resolve moderately complex technical challenges requiring in-depth analysis of technologies, patterns, and procedures.
• Build and maintain Python backend services (REST APIs, business workflows, integration services) and Angular UI experiences (responsive web apps, reusable components, performance-optimized screens).
• Collaborate with cross-functional partners and act as an escalation point, providing guidance to less experienced engineers through code reviews, standards, and technical mentoring.
• Support Wells Fargo's emphasis on risk management and compliance, including adherence to policies, controls, and timely escalation/remediation of issues.

• 4+ years of Software Engineering experience, or equivalent demonstrated through one or a combination of the following: work experience, training, military experience, education
  
  

Desired Qualifications

• Core technical skills
• Strong hands-on experience building backend systems in Python (e.g., FastAPI / Django / Flask) with well-structured APIs and domain logic.
• Strong hands-on experience building front-end applications using Angular (modern Angular versions), TypeScript, RxJS, and component-based UI design.
• Experience implementing RESTful APIs, API versioning, input validation, pagination, and error standards; familiarity with OpenAPI/Swagger.
• Proficiency with SQL (e.g., PostgreSQL, MS SQL Server, Oracle) and data modeling; working knowledge of ORM patterns (e.g., SQLAlchemy/Django ORM).
• Solid understanding of testing and quality practices: unit tests, integration tests, mocking, test automation (e.g., pytest, Angular testing utilities).
• Knowledge of secure software engineering: authentication/authorization (OAuth2/OIDC), secrets management, OWASP principles, and secure coding practices.
  
  

Job Expectations

• Good-to-have Backend / Python ecosystem
• Async Python patterns (asyncio), background processing (Celery/RQ), caching (Redis), and message/event systems (Kafka/RabbitMQ).

• Performance tuning and profiling; API scalability patterns; familiarity with 12-factor and cloud-native design.
• Front-end / Angular ecosystem
• State management patterns (NgRx, signals, reactive forms), micro-frontend concepts, and modular UI architecture.
• E2E and UI automation testing (Cypress / Playwright) and component testing strategies.
• Accessibility (WCAG), i18n, and performance optimization (lazy loading, bundle analysis).
• DevOps / Platform
• CI/CD and pipeline engineering (e.g., GitHub Actions, Jenkins), containerization (Docker), orchestration (Kubernetes/OpenShift), and Helm.
• Infrastructure-as-code and environment automation (Terraform), plus secure SDLC practices (SAST/DAST, dependency scanning).
• Modern engineering practices
• API gateway patterns, service-to-service security, feature flags, blue/green or canary releases.
