Principal Software Engineer: Distributed Systems (Config, Test, & Deployment) joins the Intent Management organization within the Foundational Engineering team to ensure safe change across global systems. This senior individual contributor role involves owning the technical coherence of a platform spanning globally distributed key-value storage, progressive release and configuration delivery, and testing and health-mediation systems. The successful candidate will write production code, design new systems, review proposals from other senior engineers, and integrate LLMs into internal processes. Key requirements include expertise in at least one modern strongly-typed programming language, proficiency in API design standards, and experience with high-volume, global-scale software applications. Preferred technical skills include Kubernetes, RocksDB, Prodspec, Annealing systems, and health checking platforms. The role addresses the critical challenge of preventing unsafe changes from causing outages by making safe deployment the default for edge and control-plane platforms.
