About the job
Set the technical direction for software an entire enterprise depends on. As a Senior Principal Software Engineer on a new platform engineering team at a leading global financial institution, you'll lead the strategic development behind new and existing reusable components, challenge the status quo across agile teams, and keep the organization at the forefront of industry trends. Your work defines the drop-in, agent-native frameworks (consumable by LLMs and modern tooling by default) that thousands of engineers build on. If you want the deepest technical problems and impact measured across tens of thousands of repositories, this is where you'll have it.
