Principal Software Engineer

Job Title: Principal Software Engineer

Location: Hybrid | Islamabad | Rawalpindi

Type: Full-Time

Senior Individual Contributor Department: Engineering

About the Role:

We’re looking for a Principal Software Engineer to help architect and build complex, high-scale systems across AI, data, and network-focused applications. This is a deeply technical and hands-on role, ideal for someone who enjoys solving system-level problems, writing high-quality code, and shaping architecture without formal management responsibilities.

You'll work alongside strong engineers across backend, DevOps, and AI teams—bringing clarity to technical decisions and contributing directly to production code.

What You’ll Do

• Design and develop core backend systems for secure, large-scale web applications, including authentication, access control, and network-aware services
• Build and integrate AI-powered services, such as agent workflows, RAG pipelines, and semantic search using vector databases
• Implement and scale data processing pipelines for real-time and batch workloads
• Collaborate with DevOps teams to maintain CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code, and observability
• Contribute high-quality code, conduct deep technical reviews, and advocate best practices

What You Bring

• 6+ years of backend or systems engineering experience, including large-scale production systems
• Proficiency in Python, Go, Java, or similar backend languages
• Experience designing distributed systems using microservices, messaging queues, and event-driven architectures
• Familiarity with cloud-native development (AWS/GCP), containers (Docker, Kubernetes), and IaC tools (Terraform, CDK)
• Exposure to secure system design, including auth flows and API hardening
• Understanding of data engineering or AI/ML integrations (e.g., RAG systems, vector stores) is a plus
• Strong system design skills with the ability to work independently on complex technical challenges
