Shape architecture: Own technical design decisions, drive engineering standards and influence product roadmaps.
Lead AI innovation: Engineer production-ready AI capabilities, including LLM-powered document processing, RAG and intelligent assistants.

Lead through expertise: Mentor engineers, solve complex technical challenges and collaborate across product and engineering teams

Your skills, experience and beyond:

Proven experience as a Staff or Principal Software Engineer, with strong hands-on technical leadership.
Deep expertise in TypeScript, React, Node.js and modern full-stack development.
