The Role

We are seeking a Principal Software Engineer who combines deep hands-on delivery skills with organization-wide technical leadership. This role sits at the intersection of feature delivery, platform ownership, and AI-led transformation.

You will own and deliver critical product features end-to-end while simultaneously shaping the architecture, modernization strategy, and AI adoption roadmap across the platform. This role requires a strong builder mindset—someone who can design systems, write production-grade code, unblock teams, and also influence long-term technical direction.

The ideal candidate brings extensive experience working with enterprise-grade platforms built on AngularJS/Angular, C#/.NET, SQL Server, Entity Framework, and API-driven systems, and has demonstrated success modernizing such systems into scalable, event-driven, and AI-enabled architectures.

Key Responsibilities

1. AI & Innovation Leadership

• Drive adoption of AI-first engineering practices across development workflows and product capabilities
• Apply LLMs, Copilot, RAG architectures, and intelligent automation to accelerate feature delivery, testing, and code modernization
• Identify practical opportunities to embed AI into core platform capabilities and business workflows
• Establish guardrails and best practices for scalable, secure, and production-ready AI integration

2. Architecture & Platform Ownership

• Define architecture for new features while ensuring alignment with long-term platform evolution
• Evolve the system toward API-first, event-driven, and modular architectures
• Design and enhance platform capabilities built on:
• Web APIs, WebHooks
• Background processing (WebJobs, Windows Services, workers)
• Integration and data exchange layers
• Balance short-term delivery needs with long-term scalability and maintainability

3. Feature Delivery & Hands-on Engineering

• Own and deliver complex, high-impact features end-to-end, from design to production rollout
• Write high-quality, maintainable code across backend and frontend layers where needed
• Collaborate closely with product and engineering teams to convert requirements into scalable solutions
• Troubleshoot and resolve complex production issues across services, APIs, and data layers
• Lead by example through hands-on contributions in critical paths

4. Modernization & Engineering Excellence

• Drive modernization of enterprise applications built on the .NET + AngularJS platform
• Refactor legacy patterns into clean, modular, testable components
• Improve system reliability through better logging, monitoring, diagnostics, and observability
• Introduce engineering best practices across:
• Code quality and reviews
• Testing strategies
• Performance optimization
• Production readiness

5. Organizational Influence & Mentorship

• Mentor senior engineers and technical leads on system design, coding practices, and architecture
• Influence technical decisions across multiple teams without direct authority
• Establish reusable patterns, frameworks, and engineering standards
• Act as a technical bridge between feature teams, platform teams, and leadership

Required Qualifications

• 12+ years of experience in software engineering, including significant hands-on development and architecture responsibilities
• Proven experience delivering complex enterprise features at scale, while contributing to system design and evolution
• Strong background in designing, building, and modernizing enterprise platforms
• Demonstrated ability to operate as a Principal Engineer / Lead Architect-level contributor
• Hands-on experience with AI-enabled development practices (e.g., Copilot, LLM integrations, automation)
• Strong problem-solving skills with ability to debug and optimize across full-stack systems
• Excellent communication and leadership skills with ability to influence across teams

AI/ML & Future-Ready Expectations

• Experience applying AI/ML techniques in software engineering or product development
• Familiarity with:
• LLMs and prompt-driven systems
• RAG architectures and knowledge retrieval systems
• AI-assisted development tools (e.g., Copilot, code assistants)
• Ability to translate AI capabilities into practical engineering solutions and measurable impact
• Strong interest in continuously evolving engineering practices using AI as a force multiplier

Optional / Preferred Technology Exposure

• Experience with Java (Spring Boot) and related ecosystems for building microservices (preferred but not mandatory)
• Exposure to cloud platforms (AWS/Azure/GCP) and cloud-native architectures
• Familiarity with microservices, containerization, and DevOps practices
• Experience working with distributed systems and integration-heavy architectures

Leadership & Influence Expectations

• Operates effectively across both hands-on delivery and strategic decision-making
• Thinks in terms of systems, scalability, and long-term architecture
• Drives alignment across teams and elevates engineering standards
• Balances speed of delivery with engineering quality and platform health
• Acts as a trusted technical advisor to engineering and product leadership

What Success Looks Like
