Principal Software Engineer
We are developing Manufacturing and Engineering AI tools that help employees gain insights, access knowledge, and make better decisions more efficiently. The Principal Software Engineer will set the technical direction and lead architecture for platform initiatives supporting chatbots, agents, and AI-enabled workflows across manufacturing and engineering use cases.
This role requires deep manufacturing technology fluency and hands-on experience with the platform stack behind industrial and enterprise AI solutions. You will guide architecture and standards for systems that integrate with manufacturing data sources, operational platforms, and modern GenAI services, while supporting both low/no-code and pro-code development patterns.
This is a hands-on technical leadership role. You will define architecture, evaluate build-versus-buy options, own reliability and cost characteristics, and lead a team of engineers working with product owners and principal engineers to evolve and operate these platforms.
Define the technical vision and reference architecture for AI platforms supporting chatbots, agents, orchestration, and related enterprise services.
Translate product and business requirements into scalable platform capabilities, including agent hosting, model access, AI gateways, observability, and operational tooling.
Familiarity with the broader LLM ecosystem, including model providers, orchestration libraries, and governance frameworks.
Experience implementing AI gateways, centralized model access controls, policy layers, or audit systems.
Experience shipping developer experience capabilities such as SDKs, CLIs, templates, and documentation.
