PURPOSE:
CareFirst is seeking a Lead Software Engineer for ERP Financial Systems to provide technical leadership for the applications, integrations, and data that enable enterprise accounting and finance. The immediate mandate is dependable ownership and modernization of the current Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) financial landscape, including close-critical processes, upstream and downstream interfaces, reporting, controls, and production support.
The Lead will also prepare the organization for a future cloud ERP decision that may include Workday, Oracle Cloud ERP, or another solution. This role is ideal for a hands-on technical leader who understands accounting operations, can improve a complex production environment, and can shape a platform-neutral modernization strategy.
ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS:
Technical Leadership & Architecture
- Set architecture and engineering direction for Oracle EBS Financials, related extensions, integrations, data, reporting, security, environments, and observability.
- Lead solution design and engineering reviews across GL, AP, AR, FA, CM, SLA, purchasing-related accounting, banking, tax, expense, reporting, and close processes.
- Define reusable standards for APIs, middleware, batch processing, data transformation, reconciliation, monitoring, testing, deployment, and documentation.
- Guide engineers and partners through complex delivery, performance tuning, critical incidents, releases, and technical-debt reduction.
Service Ownership, Controls & Partnership
- Own technical health, reliability, supportability, risk, controls, and lifecycle planning for the financial technology portfolio.
- Lead response to close-critical and high-severity production issues, ensuring root-cause analysis and preventive improvements.
- Partner with Accounting, Finance, Treasury, Procurement, Enterprise Architecture, Security, Audit, Infrastructure, vendors, and product leadership on roadmap and delivery priorities.
- Strengthen reconciliation, traceability, segregation of duties, access controls, audit evidence, and operational readiness.
Future-State Strategy
- Create a fact-based current-state architecture and modernization backlog covering configurations, customizations, integrations, data, reports, controls, and close dependencies.
- Lead technical evaluation and fit-gap work for Workday Financial Management, Oracle Cloud ERP, or other options, including data, integration, reporting, controls, and implementation readiness.
- Develop transition principles for coexistence, data conversion, integration rationalization, testing, cutover, financial reconciliation, and service continuity.
SUPERVISORY RESPONSIBILITY:
Position does not have direct reports but is expected to assist in guiding and mentoring less experienced staff. May lead a team of matrixed resources.
Education Level: Bachelors degree in information technology, Computer Science, Finance, Accounting, Business, or a related field OR in lieu of a bachelors degree, an additional 4 years of relevant work experience in addition to the required work experience.
Experience: 10+ years of experience in financial systems, enterprise applications, software engineering, or ERP integration, including 3+ years providing technical leadership for complex solutions or teams.
Required Qualifications:
- Deep technical experience with Oracle EBS Financials and expert functional understanding of accounting processes, including GL, AP, subledger accounting, and period close.
- Proven leadership across SQL/PLSQL, interfaces, APIs, middleware, data conversion, reporting, security, testing, releases, and production operations.
- Demonstrated ability to partner with finance executives, controllers, accountants, auditors, architects, and engineers and convert complex needs into an executable roadmap.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Experience spanning Oracle EBS and a cloud ERP such as Workday Financial Management or Oracle Cloud ERP.
- Experience with Boomi, MuleSoft, Oracle Integration Cloud, Accounting Center, data conversion, enterprise reporting, or finance transformation programs.
- Experience in healthcare, insurance, or another regulated industry; architecture, CPA-domain, SAFe, or Agile credentials are a plus.

- Strong analytical and problem-solving ability to evaluate existing systems and propose scalable, supportable solutions.
- Ability to translate between business processes, functional requirements, data, integrations, and technical design.
- Experience integrating complex enterprise systems using REST/SOAP APIs, XML/JSON, SFTP, middleware, and batch or event-driven patterns.
- Knowledge and understanding of the software development life cycle (SDLC), Agile delivery, release management, CI/CD, testing, and code-quality practices.
- Working knowledge of cloud technologies such as AWS or Azure and database technologies such as SQL and Oracle.
- Excellent written and verbal communication, documentation, stakeholder-management, and customer-service skills.
- Ability to manage competing priorities, meet established deadlines, and provide effective service to internal and external customers.
- Familiarity with security, segregation of duties, audit controls, and data governance in a regulated environment.
- Must be able to meet established deadlines and handle multiple customer service demands from internal and external customers, within set expectations for service excellence.

Tips for Your Remote Financial Engineer Job Search
Apply early to remote roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists remote financial engineer openings from across the U.S. in one place. Search roles by function and apply directly to the ones that match your skills before postings fill. Remote roles often close faster than on-site ones.
Show async work in your portfolio
Remote employers want proof you can deliver without daily check-ins. Package your pricing models, risk frameworks, or quant research as documented GitHub projects with clear README files that explain your methodology and outputs independently.
Highlight distributed-team tools upfront
Remote financial engineer interviews probe collaboration habits directly. Call out your fluency with Jira, Confluence, Slack, and version-controlled code review early in your resume and interviews. Employers need confidence you can integrate into an async workflow from day one.
Target remote-first fintech and quant firms
Remote-first financial companies have already built distributed engineering cultures, so you won't be an exception to manage. Focus your search on fintech platforms, algorithmic trading firms, and insurance technology companies that list fully remote roles by default rather than as exceptions.
Remote Financial Engineer Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a remote financial engineer job?
Remote financial engineer roles go to candidates who can demonstrate strong quantitative skills and the ability to work independently without in-person oversight. Remote employers screen heavily for proficiency in tools like Python, R, or MATLAB, plus clear written communication for async collaboration. A portfolio of modeling work, risk analysis projects, or derivatives pricing scripts gives you a concrete edge over equally credentialed candidates.
Which companies hire remote financial engineers?
Remote financial engineer roles are posted by Block, CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield, and Neo4j and others right now, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Remote-first fintech firms, hedge funds with distributed quant teams, and insurance technology companies are among the most active employers for this role.
Can you get a remote financial engineer job with no experience?
Yes, but remote entry-level financial engineer roles are harder to land because employers expect you to solve problems and manage workflows without in-person guidance from day one. Remote-first fintech startups and financial software companies are more open to early-career candidates. A strong GitHub portfolio of pricing models or risk tools, plus demonstrated async communication skills, can substitute for direct professional experience.
Do you need a degree for remote financial engineer jobs?
Usually, but the degree requirement is more about field than credential level. Most remote employers expect a background in finance, mathematics, engineering, or computer science, though some fintech companies will weight a strong modeling portfolio and demonstrable quantitative skills over the specific degree you hold. Certifications in financial risk management or quantitative analysis can reinforce a non-traditional academic background.
