Job details:
This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Tech Lead / Sr. Principal Engineer based in India.
This is a high-impact technical leadership role within an emerging technologies and incubation environment focused on building what comes next. You will combine hands-on engineering with rapid experimentation, architectural leadership, and advanced AI development. The role involves turning ambitious product concepts into high-stakes prototypes and, where appropriate, production-ready solutions. You will work across disciplines to explore AI, machine learning, agentic systems, and other frontier technologies. Success requires exceptional autonomy, comfort with ambiguity, and the ability to make sound technical decisions at speed. You will also mentor engineers, raise engineering standards, and communicate complex ideas to technical and executive audiences. This is an opportunity to shape next-generation products while working with globally distributed teams.
Accountabilities
- Design, architect, develop, and own the end-to-end delivery of high-impact prototypes and production-ready technical solutions.
- Lead technical direction for emerging technology initiatives, collaborating with cross-functional teams to experiment with, validate, and integrate AI, machine learning, and other frontier technologies.
- Translate early-stage concepts and ambiguous requirements into practical technical architectures and iterative solutions.
- Leverage modern AI-assisted development approaches, advanced developer tools, Model Context Protocol (MCP), and large language models (LLMs) to accelerate experimentation and software delivery.
- Establish strong engineering practices around code reviews, architecture, quality, governance, and continuous improvement.
- Mentor engineers and technical peers, helping raise engineering standards, development quality, and technical capability across the team.
- Communicate architectural decisions, technical trade-offs, project progress, and complex concepts clearly to executive stakeholders and engineering teams.
- Work closely with cross-functional partners to rapidly prototype, test assumptions, incorporate feedback, and refine technical strategies.
- Navigate changing requirements and market dynamics while maintaining momentum and making pragmatic technical decisions.
- Take ownership of complex problems from initial concept through implementation, proactively identifying and resolving blockers without requiring extensive structural support.
- Contribute to the development of innovative solutions that explore new possibilities in artificial intelligence, communications, and emerging technology.
- Participate occasionally in in-person project, customer, or team meetings as required.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical discipline, or equivalent practical experience.
- 12+ years of professional software development experience with a strong track record of designing and delivering complex software systems.
- Strong proficiency in modern programming languages such as JavaScript, Python, Java, or Go, with the judgment to select the appropriate technology for each problem.
- Experience developing applications using modern front-end or back-end frameworks such as React, Angular, Node.js, or Spring Boot.
- Strong understanding of database technologies, including both SQL and NoSQL systems and the ability to determine the appropriate approach for different use cases.
- Advanced experience with AI-assisted development and modern agentic coding workflows, including effective use of LLMs, developer productivity tools, and MCP.
- Hands-on exposure to LLMs, artificial intelligence, machine learning concepts, or related projects is strongly preferred.
- Strong knowledge of cloud architecture, particularly AWS or Azure, and distributed systems design principles.
- Exceptional problem-solving skills and the ability to independently navigate ambiguity, remove blockers, and drive complex initiatives forward.
- Strong technical communication skills, with the ability to facilitate high-bandwidth engineering discussions and explain complex concepts to diverse stakeholders.
- Proven mentorship and technical leadership capabilities, with a collaborative approach to working across teams and disciplines.
- Ability to rapidly learn unfamiliar technologies, iterate effectively, and develop pragmatic solutions to well-defined and emerging problems.
- Passion for innovation, experimentation, and exploring technologies that can create new products and experiences.
- Experience working effectively with remote or globally distributed engineering teams is advantageous.
- Contributions to open-source projects or technical communities are a plus.
- Must be based in one of the following Indian states: Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Telangana, Maharashtra, or Delhi.
- Willingness to travel occasionally for project, customer, or team meetings.
Benefits
- Fully remote working arrangement within eligible locations in India.
- Competitive compensation.
- Generous paid time off.
- Parental and wellness leave programs.
- Healthcare benefits, with offerings varying according to location.
- Retirement savings program.
- Opportunities to work on cutting-edge AI, machine learning, and emerging technologies.
- High-impact technical leadership opportunities with significant autonomy and ownership.
- Exposure to global, distributed engineering teams and cross-functional collaboration.
- Opportunities for mentoring, technical growth, and continuous learning.
- Support for employee volunteering and community-impact initiatives.
- Inclusive, globally connected work environment designed to support diverse perspectives and experiences.
