If you've built and evolved similar systems that handle huge volumes and interact with a variety of complex APIs, you'll be a great fit! Principal Engineers are expected to own the long-term technical vision for their domain, having a clear view of the architectural challenges and how to remediate them over time. Having a close relationship with the domain's Product Manager is key. While the PM brings the what, you are their peer responsible for bringing the how — and actively shaping the problem space itself. Digging deep into the business problem the PM is trying to solve is key to be able to make the right decisions on how to shape the technical solution for the team to work on. You'll partner with an Engineering Manager, who will help coordinate the team's day-to-day work, maintain a sustainable delivery pace, and ensure the team is set up for success. Together, you'll break down complex projects into manageable tasks and drive continuous improvement in our engineering practices. You'll also act as a force multiplier across teams, raising the technical bar beyond your immediate domain. This offer from "Hostaway" has been enriched by Jobgether.com and got a 77% flex score.
