Original job description

Purpose. Performance. People.

Joining CPP Investments means joining one of the world’s most admired and respected institutional investors to drive a single mandate: to deliver strong, sustainable returns for generations of Canadians.

With a long-term horizon and global reach, we deploy capital at scale across public and private markets. Our size, stability, and disciplined investment philosophy allow us to pursue complex opportunities and build enduring partnerships worldwide.

For our people, this means meaningful work with tangible impact, real opportunity, and collaboration with exceptional colleagues who value partnership and performance. Here, you’ll contribute to outcomes that matter alongside team members committed to excellence and shared success.

The Role

As Lead Software Engineer, Risk & TFM Technology, you will guide and participate in the end-to-end design, development, testing and support of technology solutions for the SimCorp team. You will provide technical leadership, drive engineering excellence and continuous improvement, and collaborate with business, Technology & Data and vendor partners to deliver scalable, cloud-based solutions that respond to evolving business needs.

The Team

Risk & TFM Technology is part of CPP Investments’ Technology & Data department, providing technology capabilities that support business needs across the organization. This role supports the SimCorp team, helping build and maintain technology solutions within a predominantly AWS-hosted environment.

Accountabilities

Design, develop, test and support end-to-end technology solutions that enable complex business capabilities in an Agile environment.
Provide technical leadership, coaching and mentorship while driving engineering excellence and continuous improvement across Technology & Data.
Apply strong knowledge of software engineering, cloud technologies and supported business capabilities to guide technical decisions and solution design.
Foster innovation and agility through experimentation, early feedback and responsiveness to evolving business needs.
Analyze complex technical challenges, develop recommendations and collaborate with colleagues to implement effective solutions.
Lead root-cause analysis across teams and support timely resolution of technology issues.
Build strong relationships with business partners, technology teams and vendors while promoting Agile software development practices.

What You Bring

Undergraduate degree or college diploma in a related field, such as Engineering or Computer Science.
6+ years of relevant software engineering experience.
Extensive programming experience with languages such as Python or Java.
Experience developing, deploying and supporting applications in cloud environments, particularly Amazon Web Services (AWS).
Strong knowledge of software development principles, including version control, testing methodologies, Agile practices and writing clean, maintainable, well-documented code.
Demonstrated ability to provide technical leadership, coaching and mentorship while driving engineering best practices.
Strong analytical, problem-solving and communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively with business and technology partners.

You are motivated to contribute to something larger than yourself, approach complex challenges with rigor, and hold yourself to high standards in a collaborative, performance-driven environment.

We provide colleagues with cutting-edge AI tools, dedicated learning time, and practical support to help them deliver with greater impact.

Inclusion & Accessibility

CPP Investments is committed to equitable access to employment and building a workforce that reflects diverse talent and perspectives. If you require accommodation at any stage of the recruitment process, please let us know and we will work with you to meet your needs.

Attention: Protect Yourself from Fraud

CPP Investments is committed to a secure and transparent recruitment process. We will never ask candidates for payment or financial information at any stage of hiring. All legitimate opportunities are posted on our careers page, and communications will come from our applicant tracking system, Workday.

CPP Investments may use AI tools to help screen and assess applicants by analyzing resumes and applications for relevant skills and experience. These tools support, but do not replace, human decision-making.
