  • Enhance the use of technology across the organization to personalize client experiences through automation, intuitive process, easy to use interfaces, and simplicity.
  • Own and improve end-to-end workflows that span core banking, lending, investment, and Microsoft platforms.
  • Serve as the Business Application Owner for company-wide cross-departmental technology.
  • Drive operational excellence by streamlining technology platforms, auditing the tech stack, and implementing analytics to eliminate inefficiencies across departments.
  • Enable data-informed decision making across departments.

 

What You Bring

  • Bachelor’s degree in Information Technology, Enterprise Application Management, or related field (preferred).
  • 3–5 years of experience in technology adoption, enablement, or strategy development (required).
  • Experience within banking or financial services environments.
  • Strong analytical, problem‑solving, and process‑improvement skills.
  • Ability to manage large projects with limited supervision.
  • Excellent communication skills, including translating technical concepts for non‑technical audiences.
  • High emotional intelligence and ability to influence across teams.

 

What We Offer

  • Competitive base salary: $86,000 - $138,000/YR, plus strong bonus potential.

  • 401(k) plan with employer match.

  • Paid parking and transportation benefits.

  • Comprehensive health and wellness benefits, including:

    • Health savings accounts (HSA)

    • Flexible spending accounts (FSA)

    • Medical, dental, and vision coverage

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection.

Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
