What you'll be doing

You will be joining the Core Banking and Payment Technology team within CIBC. Lending Solutions brings business and technology partners together to deliver solutions that support our clients and our business. As a Squad Solution Builder, Business Systems Analysis and Design, you’ll translate backlog items and user stories into clear technical outputs and practical, scalable solutions. You’ll work hands-on throughout the Squad’s delivery cycle to help build technology that’s reliable, maintainable, secure and aligned to business needs. In partnership with the Product Owner, Squad members and teams across Architecture, Infrastructure, Security, Operations and support, you’ll help shape feasible designs and enable smooth delivery. You’ll identify risks and dependencies early, support end-to-end solution ownership, and contribute to continuous improvement across the team.

Break work into small, testable increments, document key decisions and apply reusable patterns, shared tools and lessons learned to improve delivery.
