TL;DR · Software Principal Engineer / Web App Developer

The Software Principal Engineer / Web App Developer joins the AI Governance Engineering team to develop the Agentic Development Lifecycle Portal. This role involves designing and shipping major subsystems end-to-end, including front-end user experiences, back-end services, and data layers for versioned specifications and audit trails. You will build production features using React 19, TypeScript, Next.js, and Node.js or Python, while integrating LLMs through tool calling, RAG, and MCP integrations. Key responsibilities include managing PostgreSQL databases, implementing CI/CD on Kubernetes, and performing code reviews. The work focuses on building the platform that governs how AI agents build software, specifically managing agent-driven implementation pipelines, quality gates, and lineage tracing to ensure trustworthy, automated software delivery within an AI-native engineering environment.

What you'll do

  • Build and own full-stack portal capabilities using React, TypeScript, Next.js, and Node.js or Python.
  • Design the data layer for versioned specifications, agent-run records, and audit trails using relational, document, graph, and vector storage.
  • Integrate AI agents and LLMs into the product using tool calling, orchestration, RAG, and guardrails.
  • Write specifications for AI agents to implement and review/correct agent-generated code and tests.
  • Maintain production systems using CI/CD on Kubernetes, observability tools, and test-driven development.
  • Perform code and design reviews to set the technical bar and mentor other engineers.

What we're looking for

  • 8+ years of software engineering experience shipping and operating full-stack production systems.
  • Deep hands-on expertise in React with TypeScript (Next.js) and Node.js/TypeScript or Python back ends.
  • Experience with API design, OAuth/OIDC authentication, and containerized deployment on Kubernetes.
  • Strong data modeling skills in PostgreSQL, including schema design, indexing, partitioning, and query optimization.
  • Experience shipping at least one production feature built on LLMs or AI agents.
  • Ability to work in a startup-style environment, shipping MVPs quickly and owning outcomes end to end.
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent experience (preferred).
  • Experience building developer platforms, SDLC/DevOps tooling, or LLM evaluation frameworks (preferred).
