Principal Software Engineer

The Principal Software Engineer will drive development practices focused on creativity and innovation across our project portfolios. The Principal Software Engineer plays a critical role in driving the technical details for projects, spanning multiple areas and product teams. They need to understand the design, code, and features required by many different business areas and deliver quality solutions to meet those needs. They must be able to design and implement services that are scalable, efficient, available, and low cost to maintain. They will influence other software engineers to come up with the best design and implement common patterns to standardize our code base. They have good partnership and influence skills and can work across multiple teams of varying technical knowledge. The Principal Software Engineer is the highest level in our Software Engineer series and may be assigned to function in a supervisor capacity as well. The management aspect of the role is not required in order to attain the Principal level, and this will be considered on a case-by-case basis relative to the individual’s skillset, career interest, and overall resource planning. If a Principal is assigned management responsibilities this would not exceed 2 direct reports. This responsibility would reduce the technical workload but not eliminate the expectation that they will perform all other technical tasks as defined in the role. Responsibilities
