• Turn complex or ambiguous business challenges into scalable solutions

This is a highly collaborative and client-facing role for an experienced technologist who is equally comfortable:

• Writing code
• Leading technical delivery
• Discussing architecture with senior stakeholders
• Helping teams make better engineering decisions

We’re particularly interested in engineers with deep React and TypeScript expertise, strong experience building on AWS, and a modern approach to software development that incorporates AI-assisted and agentic coding tools into everyday engineering workflows.

Qualifications

• Extensive professional software engineering experience building and delivering complex, production-grade applications
• Deep expertise in React and TypeScript, with strong experience designing and developing modern frontend and full-stack applications
• Strong understanding of software and solution architecture
• Significant experience with AWS and cloud-native application architectures
• Proven experience serving as a Tech Lead, Principal Engineer, or senior technical owner for complex engineering initiatives
• Ability to lead projects from technical discovery and architecture through implementation, deployment, and production
• Strong experience designing and integrating APIs, backend services, and distributed systems
• Hands-on experience using modern AI-assisted development tools
• Understanding of agentic coding and AI-enabled software development workflows
• Strong consulting skills with the ability to understand client challenges
• Excellent communication and executive presence
• Experience collaborating across engineering, product, design, and client teams in distributed environments
• Ability to mentor engineers, establish technical direction, and raise engineering standards

Requirements

• Experience designing or delivering AI-powered or Generative AI applications
• Hands-on experience with agentic architectures, AI agents, orchestration, or LLM-integrated development workflows
• Experience with additional modern full-stack technologies such as Node.js, Next.js, React Native, or similar frameworks
• Experience with AWS serverless architecture, including services such as Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB, Cognito, or related technologies
• AWS certifications or demonstrated experience designing complex AWS architectures
• Experience leading cloud modernization, application modernization, or legacy transformation initiatives
• Experience conducting technical assessments, architecture reviews, discovery engagements, or consulting workshops with clients
• Experience helping teams adopt new engineering practices, tooling, or AI-enabled development approaches

Benefits

• Solving complex engineering challenges while remaining deeply involved in hands-on technical work
• Working directly with clients and senior stakeholders to shape technical strategy
• Leading engineering initiatives without stepping away from coding and architecture
• Building modern applications with React, TypeScript, AWS, and emerging AI technologies
• Exploring how AI-assisted and agentic development can fundamentally improve software teams
• Mentoring other engineers and helping raise the technical bar across teams
• Working across different clients, industries, technologies, and complex business challenges
