What We Do

At Goldman Sachs, our Engineers don't just make things – we make things possible. Join our engineering teams that build massively scalable software and systems, architect low latency infrastructure solutions, proactively guard against cyber threats, and leverage machine learning alongside financial engineering to continuously turn data into action. Create new businesses, transform finance, and explore a world of opportunity at the speed of markets.

They provide critical metrics and related analysis to the firm's and divisions' leadership to navigate the evolving business strategy, including incumbent and strategic initiatives. Controllers play an important role in the changing landscape of the firm, including its new business ventures and acquisitions, and ensure that these new initiatives are in line with the regulatory expectations as well as controlled in terms of their incorporation into the firm.

OUR Impact

Controllers Engineering is responsible for designing and implementing solutions to manage the firm's P&L, measure and monitor the firm's capital, balance sheet and liquidity metrics, and regulatory obligations across the globe. Our teams (based across Americas, EMEA and Asia) develop and manage the platforms, calculation engines, and analytical tools that controllers, risk management, and deal‑making teams use to project, monitor and report externally to regulators for both regular business activity and stress scenarios.

We provide real‑time access to essential information and process millions of data points daily to inform firm‑wide market insights and strategies. Your role is to create, own and continuously improve these solutions, driving their growth and impact throughout the organization, championing engineering best practices and driving organizational change to maximize their impact.

This position provides a unique opportunity to gain subject matter expertise in both technology and finance, and to directly drive initiatives alongside colleagues and senior management from across the business, Risk, Finance, and Engineering to align technical execution with overarching strategic goals.
