Principal Software Engineer, Developer Tools (US West Coast)

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Principal Software Engineer, Developer Tools (US West Coast) based in United States.

In this role, you will define the technical vision and architecture for a large-scale developer tools ecosystem that powers how software is built, tested, and delivered across a global engineering organization. You will operate at the intersection of platform engineering, CI/CD systems, and emerging AI-driven development workflows, shaping the foundations of internal developer productivity at scale. This is a highly strategic and influential position where your decisions will directly impact engineering velocity, system reliability, and developer experience across multiple teams. You will design the “golden path” for software delivery, ensuring that best practices are embedded into default workflows rather than enforced externally. You will collaborate with senior engineering leaders, security, infrastructure, and platform teams to define SDLC standards and translate them into scalable systems. The role also involves evaluating and integrating AI/LLM technologies to modernize development workflows and enable agent-driven automation. This is a high-impact, architecture-heavy role suited for a deeply technical leader who thrives in complex, distributed environments.
