We’re looking for a Principal Engineer to help shape the architecture, engineering practices, and technical direction of our next-generation, AI-powered customer experience platform.
This is a hands-on leadership role (without people management) for someone who enjoys designing and building complex, enterprise-grade systems, mentoring engineers, and collaborating across product and engineering to bring innovative solutions to life.

  • Lead technical architecture and development across frontend, backend, and infrastructure layers.
  • Collaborate with product, design, and engineering teams to build secure, scalable, and high-performance systems.
  • Own key components of the platform from concept to deployment and beyond.
  • Set technical standards, lead design reviews, and promote engineering excellence across the team.
  • Mentor engineers and help scale our capabilities as the company grows.

What We’re Looking For

  • 10+ years of experience delivering enterprise-grade software systems, ideally in B2B2C environments.
  • Strong track record in designing cloud-native architectures with data, integration, and scale complexity.
  • Proficiency in Python, TypeScript, or equivalent modern languages.
  • Experience with distributed systems, API design, and DevOps practices.
  • Familiarity with AWS, Infrastructure-as-Code (CDK or Terraform), and CI/CD pipelines.
  • Clear, collaborative communicator who thrives in high-autonomy environments.

Nice to Have

  • Experience in high-growth startups or scale-ups.
  • Familiarity with AI/ML, LLMs, or speech technologies.
  • Contributions to open-source projects or public technical content.
