Principal Software Engineer - Lead Tech Initiatives

Principal engineers at Invisible are able to follow multiple paths. Some of our Principal engineers are technical leads of teams and are responsible for people management of those teams. They oversee the technical vision for their area and ensure that there is proper mentorship.

Other principal engineers lead through technical initiatives. These engineers oversee broad multi-team technical initiatives and own parts of our software stack (ex. Principal engineers might research and roll out new technical frameworks or might develop a new generation of our UI component library).

• Significant experience developing applications in team environments.
• Able to work well with Product Managers to develop technical specifications for large projects with complex scope.

• Experience using React for frontend development (We use React, Next.js and Prisma).
• Backend language experience including Node, Python (Flask/Django/etc.), Ruby on Rails, Symphony, etc.
