Senior Principal Engineer

We are looking for an engineering leader that operates as a Builder.

• Be immersive in shaping the ‘what’ and ‘why’ of products to build in addition to driving the execution of the said plan.

• Validate with customers and glean insights to fail fast or get to proven adoption.

• Operate AI forward and hands on in everything you do and scale your influence. And the core technical chops of a Sr. Principal Engineer.

• Founder Mindset:
  Propose, architect, and ship large-scale cloud services as if they were your own startup.

• Technical Diplomacy:
  Navigate complex technical trade-offs and drive consensus across stakeholders through clear, data‑driven communication.

• Engineering Excellence:
  Be the standard‑bearer for the "dev inner loop" obsessing over quality, scalability, and developer productivity.

• AI Integration:
  Move beyond "AI‑assisted" to "AI‑native," building agentic systems that solve real‑world enterprise bottlenecks.

• External‑Facing Excellence: A proven track record (10+ years) of architecting and building world‑class, large‑scale commercial applications with a focus on external product impact.

• Core Domain Expertise:
  Deep technical background in Workflow Engines, Orchestration, and Case Management is an advantage. Depth in building user experiences is also an advantage. Expertise in distributed systems, data layers (OLTP/OLAP) and high‑scale is expected.

• Architectural Vision:
  Mastery of programming language paradigms, schema design, and the creation of robust, public‑facing APIs that drive ecosystem growth.

• Product Thinking:
  An innate ability to balance technical perfection with business impact, ensuring our engineering efforts move the needle for our customers' bottom lines.

• The ability to lead through influence and inspire a globally distributed team.

• Architected and deployed a core component of our agentic orchestration framework.
