J.P. Morgan

J.P. Morgan is a global financial services firm serving corporations, institutions, governments, consumers and small businesses across more than 100 countries. Its work spans investment banking, commercial banking, asset management, wealth management, payments processing and markets operations, delivered under two brands: J.P. Morgan, which serves prominent corporations, governments and institutional investors, and Chase, which serves consumers and small businesses. Assets under management and on the balance sheet exceed $3.2 trillion.

Technologically, the firm is among the largest employers of engineers in any industry, with over 60,000 technologists working across AI, machine learning, digital transformation, payments technology and financial technology. The scale of the problems is matched by the scale of the systems: payments infrastructure, markets platforms and risk systems operating at global volume, where technical decisions carry financial and institutional consequence.

The firm's history extends over 225 years, tracing its roots to New York City's first water company in 1799. Its stated corporate purpose centres on supporting communities and economic growth, alongside an emphasis on innovation and technology-driven progress. For engineers, this means work in a large, well-resourced technology organisation with global reach, applied to some of the most demanding domains in financial services.
