Principal Engineer - AI​/ML

Position Details

• Lead the design, development, and deployment of scalable, resilient, and high-performance software solutions with a focus on agentic AI/ML capabilities.
• Provide hands‑on technical leadership throughout the entire software development lifecycle, from concept and design to testing, deployment, and operational support.
• Architect and build full‑stack applications and services that operate on an internet scale, ensuring high availability and low latency on modern cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP).
• Drive the technical vision and strategy for AI/ML‑powered features and products, translating business requirements into robust technical designs with rapid iteration and incremental delivery.
• Mentor and guide a team of software engineers, fostering a culture of technical excellence, innovation, collaboration, speed, and AI‑augmented productivity.
• Collaborate closely with product managers, data scientists, researchers, and other engineering teams to deliver impactful solutions aligned with business goals.
• Leverage AI‑assisted development tools and practices to accelerate delivery (Git Hub Copilot, Claude Code, LLM‑powered workflows).
• Champion best practices in software engineering, including code quality, testing, CI/CD, and Dev Ops with a pragmatic, outcome‑driven approach.
• Stay current with emerging technologies and industry trends, particularly in AI/ML, agentic and LLM‑based systems, multi‑agent architectures, distributed systems, and cloud computing.
• Contribute to code reviews, design discussions, and architectural decisions with hands‑on involvement in implementation.
• Troubleshoot and resolve complex technical issues in production environments.

• 10+ years of professional software development experience, with a significant portion in a technical leadership role.
• Extensive hands‑on experience in designing, building, and operating large‑scale, distributed internet services.
• Proven experience in developing and deploying agentic AI systems and AI/ML models into production environments. This includes familiarity with the end‑to‑end MLOps lifecycle and modern LLM‑based architectures.
• Strong proficiency in multiple programming languages such as Python, Java, Go, Rust, C++ or similar.
• Deep understanding of full‑stack development, including front‑end technologies (e.g., JavaScript, Type Script, Dart, React, Flutter) and back‑end technologies (gRPC, protobuf).
• Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and containerization technologies (Docker, Kubernetes) as a primary deployment model.
• Advanced Cloud & K8s Infrastructure:
  Deep expertise in Kubernetes (Helm, ArgoCD), advanced cloud networking (Ingress, Calico), Zero Trust Security (OPA), Service Mesh (Istio/Linkerd), and eBPF (Cilium) for high‑performance observability and traffic management.
• Solid understanding of database technologies (SQL and No
  
  SQL).
• Demonstrated use of AI productivity tools (Git Hub Copilot, Claude, ChatGPT, etc.) to accelerate software development.
• Bias for action: proven track record of fast, iterative, incremental delivery over analysis paralysis.
• Business outcome orientation: focus on delivering value and measurable results, not just technical outputs.
• Excellent problem‑solving, analytical, and technical troubleshooting skills.
• Strong communication, interpersonal, and leadership abilities.
• Ability to thrive in a fast‑paced, agile environment with a strong hands‑on coding presence.
• Preferred:
  Contributions to open‑source projects.
