Principal Software Engineer, Tech Lead (TypeScript)

What You’ll Do
Lead architecture and technical decision-making across Growth Studio teams, with responsibility for the overall technical architecture and long-term design direction of the product
Define scalable patterns for services, APIs, data flows, integrations, and AI-enabled workflows that support Growth Studio’s capture, qualification, and proposal use cases
Partner closely with Product Managers, Engineering, UX Design, QA, and Ops to translate business goals into practical technical roadmaps and implementation plans
Architect elegant solutions to complex, open-ended problems, especially where customer workflows, data quality, speed, and AI outcomes intersect
Guide the design of integrations with adjacent systems and data sources, including internal and external platforms that support Growth Studio workflows
Establish and reinforce best practices for software design, secure coding, observability, performance, and maintainability across the product
Perform architecture and code reviews, provide clear technical feedback, and raise the bar for quality across teams
Lead proofs of concept and technical spikes to validate solution approaches early and reduce delivery risk
Mentor Engineers on system design, tradeoff analysis, technical communication, and architectural thinking
Create technical documentation, diagrams, and decision records that improve cross-team alignment and execution clarity
Help the organization make thoughtful use of AI technologies in the product and, where appropriate, in the software development lifecycle (SDLC)
Occasionally engage with customer-facing teams or customers when deeper technical context is needed to support product direction or to resolve complex issues
