Principal Software Engineer - Systems and Infrastructure

Oversee and own the architecture of deeply complex and ambiguous products and solutions, evaluate design options and trade-offs, and align technical decisions with customer, business, and long-term platform outcomes. Drive innovation and delivery across multiple large-scale initiatives, guiding teams through architecture, design, implementation, validation, deployment, and operationalization. Design platform-first products, services, tools, and extensible code that can be reused across the organization while meeting performance, scalability, resiliency, disaster recovery, security, compliance, and cost

requirements. Establish and champion company-wide coding, testing, architecture, and operational standards; provide technical leadership in reviews and mentor engineers and technical leaders. Act as a technical authority for cross-product debugging, verification, telemetry, incident learning, repair actions, and automation that targets zero-touch deployment and prevents recurrence. Build alignment across teams, customers, and technical leadership; negotiate dependencies and trade-offs, hold stakeholders accountable for commitments, and execute a long-term vision for core infrastructure. Influence open-source projects and industry practices, evaluate emerging technologies, and advance layered security, privacy, safety, and strategic compliance across complex products. Collaborate across infrastructure and AI teams to improve the performance, efficiency, and reliability of large-scale AI workloads, including model inference. Drive complex, ambiguous infrastructure initiatives from problem discovery through architecture, implementation, and production, making sound technical decisions and navigating trade-offs with incomplete information. Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science or related technical field AND 8+ years technical engineering experience with coding in languages including, but not limited to, C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, or Python These

requirements include, but are not limited to the following specialized security screenings: Master's Degree in Computer Science or related technical field AND 12+ years technical engineering experience with coding in languages including, but not limited to, C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, or Python OR Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science or related technical field AND 15+ years technical engineering experience with coding in languages including, but not limited to, C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, or Python OR equivalent experience. Experience providing architecture and technical leadership for multiple large-scale distributed systems, databases, analytics systems, or platform product areas. Experience aligning technical decisions with business outcomes and influencing cross-functional teams and senior technical leadership. Experience developing systems with languages such as Java, C++, or Rust and applying concepts such as query execution, indexing, concurrency, distributed algorithms, or data structures. Experience influencing open-source projects or participating in open-source project management and governance. Experience building interactive services, analytics interfaces, data infrastructure, compute infrastructure, or other large-scale platform systems. Demonstrated ability to independently navigate ambiguous technical challenges, define problems, evaluate architectural trade-offs, and deliver solutions in complex, evolving environments. Familiarity with AI/ML infrastructure concepts, such as model inference, GPU computing, model serving, or distributed training.
