Morgan Stanley is hiring an Emerging Tech Engineer

Shape the future of technology in finance by joining a global team focused on identifying, testing, and deploying emerging technologies. In this role, you'll work at the intersection of innovation and execution, helping to guide technology strategy across key domains including artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, blockchain, cloud computing, and data science.

What You’ll Do

  • Lead end-to-end technical evaluations, from initial concept to implementation, ensuring new tools deliver measurable business value
  • Collaborate with engineering, business units, and innovation labs to identify pressing challenges and match them with emerging technical solutions
  • Build proof-of-concept environments in cloud or on-prem setups to test and validate new platforms
  • Work closely with stakeholders across technology and business functions to break down adoption barriers and streamline integration processes
  • Share insights and best practices across the organization to strengthen firm-wide understanding of new technologies
  • Support the development of internal capabilities that accelerate how quickly new tools move from idea to impact

What We’re Looking For

You bring 7–10 years of technical experience with a track record of exploring and implementing emerging technologies. You’re comfortable working independently in fast-moving environments and can coordinate complex projects with minimal oversight.

  • Hands-on experience in at least one core area—cybersecurity, data science, AI/GenAI, or cloud infrastructure—is essential
  • Proficiency in Python or similar scripting languages to interact with APIs and SDKs for rapid prototyping
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to influence leaders and technical teams alike
  • Demonstrated ability to learn quickly, adapt to new tools, and solve problems creatively
  • Familiarity with agile workflows and tools like JIRA is a plus
  • Understanding of enterprise infrastructure (networking, storage, databases) and application architecture including containerization and OS layers

Environment and Impact

This is a hybrid role with presence across global offices, offering flexibility in where and how you work. You’ll operate within a culture that values integrity, client focus, and inclusive collaboration. The organization supports continuous growth, internal mobility, and a commitment to diversity, ensuring all voices contribute to innovation.

As an equal opportunity employer, we prioritize skills, potential, and diverse perspectives, fostering a workplace where everyone can thrive. Benefits include comprehensive support for employees and families, flexible work models, and programs designed to advance talent based on merit.
