Lead Software Development Engineer in Test

DTCC is seeking a Lead Software Development Engineer in Test to join its Tampa office on a full-time, in-office basis. This role sits within a financial infrastructure organization that processes trillions in securities transactions annually and serves as the backbone of post-trade market operations globally. You would be working at a company that combines deep industry expertise with ongoing technology innovation, supporting clearing, settlement, and asset servicing across multiple asset classes.

The position calls for someone with substantial testing and quality assurance experience who can lead testing initiatives for critical financial systems. This is a leadership-track role, suggesting responsibility for both hands-on test engineering and direction of testing strategy or teams. Given DTCC's scale—processing $3.7 quadrillion in annual transaction value and maintaining custody of $99 trillion in securities—the systems you'd be testing are mission-critical infrastructure where reliability and risk mitigation are non-negotiable.

DTCC emphasizes collaborative teamwork, openness to diverse perspectives, and flexible work arrangements as part of its culture. The company positions itself as a thought leader in both financial services and technology, which suggests an environment where technical excellence and business impact are both valued. This role would suit someone with strong testing credentials who wants to apply that expertise to genuinely high-stakes financial systems and potentially grow into broader quality leadership.
