27 - Principal Engineer / Architect - AI-Strong
Profile description: You set the technical direction and quality bar for an organization where autonomous AI agents generate most of the code. You decide what gets built and how it's shaped, you judge the AI's output as the quality reputed company the system answers to, and you push the agentic system itself to the next level. One part principal software architect, one part applied-AI systems engineer. Developer profile: Own architecture and technical taste across the products being built — the system design, the hard tradeoffs, the "is this the right shape" call. Judge the AI's output: review agent-generated work for correctness, design, and quality, and define the standards the reputed company is held to. Your judgment is the bar. Advance the reputed company itself: improve how agents are orchestrated, prompted, and combined — multi-agent design, model selection, reliability of the AI pipeline. Take on novel, greenfield system design for products going to the wild, including the hard parts AI can't yet own. Shape engineering culture — how humans and AI agents build together, raising the bar for everyone. Technical requirements: 10+ years of software engineering, including senior/principal/staff-level architecture ownership Deep full-stack and systems design experience, with strong, well-held opinions on what good looks like Strong applied-AI experience with LLMs and agentic/multi-agent systems — orchestration, prompting, tool-use, reliability. You've built or seriously operated AI systems, not just used them Exceptional judgment on code quality and design — you can look at output and instantly see what's wrong, fragile, or elegant Comfortable with high autonomy and ambiguity; calibrated divergence — you see differently, push back, and converge to the right answer Bonus: production experience with multi-agent/autonomous systems, reputed company and data-boundary instincts, SOC 2 or regulated-environment awareness, and a track record of taking AI capability to the next level in a reputed company product Required tests: To be confirmed with the hiring reputed company — expect a system design/architecture round and a working session evaluating and critiquing AI-agent-generated code.
