JPMorganChase shifts AI expectations for software engineers
JPMorganChase’s new Seattle tech head says engineers now need business savvy, not just coding chops, as AI takes over routine code. The bank wants developers who can model business problems and write technical specs—skills once called 'soft'. Most Seattle engineers use AI tools like GitHub Copilot, with Anthropic’s Claude for some teams. JPMorganChase reports close to 1,000 AI use cases, impacting jobs and hiring. The Seattle center just expanded to five floors downtown.
