About the Role

We are seeking a Principal Software Engineer with deep expertise in back-end .NET engineering, enterprise platform architecture, and the practical integration of AI-enabled workflows into complex software products. This role is ideal for a senior technical leader who can operate as both a hands-on engineer and an AI evangelist across the engineering organization.

You will lead the design and implementation of scalable, secure, and compliant back-end services while helping shape how our product organization uses AI to improve workflows, decision support, automation, developer productivity, and customer outcomes. Because we operate in a regulatory and compliance-driven industry, this role requires strong judgment around data governance, security, auditability, explainability, privacy, and responsible AI adoption.

The right candidate will not only know how to build enterprise-grade systems in C#, .NET, APIs, distributed services, databases, and cloud platforms, but will also be actively engaged with modern AI architectures, including LLM-based workflows, retrieval-augmented generation, agentic patterns, model orchestration, prompt engineering, evaluation frameworks, and AI governance practices.

This is a high-impact technical leadership role for someone who can set direction, mentor senior engineers, influence architecture, and raise the organization’s AI maturity.
