Amazon.com

<div><h2 class="jobSectionHeader"><b>DESCRIPTION</b></h2><p>
We are looking for a customer-obsessed Senior Principal Software Development Engineer to join our Engineering Services team. As Amazon's most distinguished individual contributors, Senior Principal Engineers are forward-thinking technical leaders whose architectural decisions and strategic influence shape the direction of entire organizations. In this role you will own the long-term technical strategy and architecture for the P&amp;S Engineering Services portfolio &mdash; the cloud-native, production-ready software and infrastructure that our customers integrate into their own offerings &mdash; while simultaneously driving cross-organizational alignment on the most critical, ambiguous, and high-stakes technical challenges ProServe faces.<br>
<br>
You will serve as a trusted technical advisor to Director and VP-level leadership, translating complex business goals into technology investments that yield measurable competitive advantage.

You will pioneer new technical spaces, evolve critical legacy systems, and lead cross-company technical initiatives that fundamentally change how ProServe delivers value at scale.<br>
<br>

Personally design and build the most critical systems; make game-changing architectural choices combining unique technical expertise with deep business judgment; know when to apply incremental approaches vs. recommend major refactoring efforts<br>
Drive cross-organizational alignment (up to VP level) on one-way-door architectural decisions with lasting consequences &mdash; influencing without direct authority across multiple organizations<br>
Establish and embody the standard for engineering excellence across the organization &mdash; code quality, observability, security, availability, operational excellence &mdash; holding peers and teams to a high bar<br>
Amplify impact through the broader technical community: educate on advanced technical issues, present at internal conferences, keep the organization up-to-date on technology trends and competitive positioning<br>
Actively mentor Principal Engineers toward Senior Principal-level impact; participate in Principal promotion assessments, performance discussions, and career growth guidance across the company<br>
Identify future skills needed across the organization and advocate for development/acquisition of those skills to senior leaders; scout and recruit top talent to Amazon<br>
**Develop and institutionalize best practices**; serve as a role model for Principal Engineer Tenets; drive adoption of emerging technologies (AI/ML, agentic architectures) where they create competitive advantage<br>
Communicate technical vision with exceptional clarity in writing for audiences from engineers to VP-level leadership; produce documents and presentations referred to as examples of highly effective communication<br>
Obtain/maintain AWS Certifications; occasional travel to customer sites (~20%)<br>

Sr. Principal Technologist, Professional Services, Product and Solutions

InvestCloud, Inc

<div><p><b>About the Role</b></p>
<p>
We are building a green field next-generation platform for private markets. We are at an early stage of the build and looking for Lead Software Engineers to partner closely with the VP of Engineering to design and deliver foundational capabilities. This is a hands-on role for someone who wants to help shape the architecture, standards, and engineering culture of a new platform while leveraging modern coding practices to deliver high-quality code and infrastructure.</p>
<p><b>
How you will provide meaningful contributions:</b></p>
<ul>
<li>Design and build backend services for the platform, primarily in Go, running on AWS with Postgres as a core data store.</li>
<li>Own features and services end-to-end: from shaping requirements and technical design through implementation, testing, deployment, and operational support, including taking responsibility for how they run in production.</li>
<li>Provide technical leadership for key services: leading design discussions, driving architectural decisions, and mentoring other engineers through pairing and code review.</li>
<li>Help define and evolve the target state architecture for the platform: service boundaries, data models, integration patterns, and reliability/observability standards.</li>
<li>Use AI tooling (e.g. Claude and similar) as a force multiplier to accelerate discovery, prototyping, and implementation, while maintaining a high bar for code quality, security, and correctness.</li>
<li>Collaborate with product, operations, and other engineering teams to integrate the platform with upstream and downstream systems, and to model private markets workflows effectively.</li>
<li>Contribute to and improve engineering practices across the team: automated testing, code review, design documentation, CI/CD, monitoring, and incident response.</li>
<li>Work effectively in an early-stage environment with evolving requirements, helping to shape our engineering processes, tooling, and standards as we scale the platform.</li>
</ul>
<p><b>Basic Qualifications for Consideration:</b></p>
<p>
We are language-agnostic in principle, but the current stack includes:</p>
<ul>
<li>Languages: Go (primary), with room for the right tool for specific problems.</li>
<li>Infrastructure: AWS, Kubernetes.</li>
<li>Data: Postgres as a core relational store.</li>
<li>APIs: gRPC and HTTP-based services.</li>
<li>Workflow orchestration: Temporal.</li>
<li>Tooling: GitHub Actions, infrastructure as code, observability tooling.</li>
</ul>
<p>You don&rsquo;t need prior experience with every technology above, but you should be comfortable learning and working across this kind of stack.</p>
<p>
You should have:</p>
<ul>
<li>Significant experience as a Lead Software Engineer (or equivalent), building and operating backend systems in production.</li>
<li>Deep experience in at least one modern backend language (Go, Java, C#, etc.), and an interest in working with Go day-to-day.</li>
<li>Strong understanding of distributed systems, service design, and API design.</li>
<li>Practical experience with relational databases, ideally Postgres: schema design, performance considerations, and migration strategies.</li>
<li>Track record of owning problems end-to-end: engaging with stakeholders, clarifying requirements, making design trade-offs, and delivering working software into production.</li>
<li>Comfortable working with and evaluating AI tooling in your workflow (e.g. for ideation, code generation, test generation, or documentation), while retaining strong engineering judgement and maintaining quality.</li>
</ul>
<p>Ideally you will also be able to demonstrate:</p>
<ul>
<li>Experience in private markets, capital markets, asset management, or adjacent financial domains.</li>
<li>Experience working in an early-stage or 01 environment, where architecture, tooling, and processes are still being defined.</li>
</ul>
<p>Experience with:</p>
<ul><li>Document generation workflows, e-signature platforms, or regulated operational processes.</li>
<li>Infrastructure-as-code and AWS-based platforms.</li>
<li>Event-driven architectures, workflow engines, or orchestration systems (e.g. Temporal)</li>
</ul>

Quality Assurance Manager

Bite Engineering

<div><h1 class="jobSectionHeader"><b>Founding Engineer</b></h1><p><b><br>
London (hybrid, 3 days in office) &middot; Full-time &middot; Competitive salary + early-team equity</b></p><p><b>
Join Bite as one of our first engineers. You'll ship across the full stack to paying customers, work directly with the founders, and own real pieces of the knowledge graph that powers everything we build.</b></p><h2 class="jobSectionHeader"><b><br>
Why this role is interesting</b></h2><p><b>
The problem is genuinely hard.</b> When a structural engineer changes Column C7 in their analysis model, the same column exists in drawings, schedules, specs and emails under different names, in different formats, with no shared identifier. Resolving those references into one canonical entity, and telling the engineer exactly what just went out of date, is the core of our product. You'll build on and extend that foundation.</p><p><b>
Your work ships to people who pay.</b> The platform is in production with signed design partners including some of the UK's leading structural engineering firms. Features go from your branch into the hands of working engineers within days, and you'll hear directly what landed and what didn't.</p><p><b>
You'll work on the whole product, not a slice of it.</b> We're a small team and we run one focused thing at a time. You'll take features from a conversation with a customer through design, implementation, tests and deployment. No ticket factory, no waiting on three other teams.</p><h2 class="jobSectionHeader"><b><br>
What we're building</b></h2><p>
Structural engineers work across a fragmented set of tools with no shared source of truth: ETABS models, SAFE analyses, Autodesk drawings, Excel specs, PDFs, emails. When a design changes, propagating that change across files is manual, slow and error-prone, and the errors are expensive.</p><p>
Bite is the change management and audit trail layer for structural engineering. The platform does two things that today take weeks of manual work: natural-language search across a project's entire file ecosystem, and cross-file impact detection. Both run on a single engineering knowledge graph built on content-addressed file storage, per-file structured extraction, and a canonical entity resolver that unifies concepts across file formats.</p><p>
The timing matters too. The Building Safety Act now requires firms to evidence their design decisions, and directors carry personal liability for it. We are building the system of record for that.</p><h2 class="jobSectionHeader"><b><br>
What a typical week looks like</b></h2><ul><li><p>
Ship a feature end to end: a Node/TypeScript API change, the React frontend that exposes it, and the tests that prove it works.</p></li><li><p>
Pair with El-Amin (our CTO, a former practising structural engineer) on how engineers actually think about a column, a load path, or a revision, then encode that into the data model.</p></li><li><p>
Improve extraction or retrieval quality in the Python ML/RAG workers and measure whether it actually got better.</p></li><li><p>
Sit in on a design partner call and watch a structural engineer use what you built last week.</p></li><li><p>
Make a pragmatic call on tech debt with the team: what we fix now, what we log, and why.</p></li></ul><p>
You don't need to be expert in every layer. The stack is polyglot by design (TypeScript, Python, React, C#/WPF, Azure) and we care about strong core engineering far more than specific tools.</p><h2 class="jobSectionHeader"><b><br>
Product sense is not optional</b></h2><p>
AI now writes a meaningful share of the code. What it can't do is decide what's worth building, notice that a feature solves the wrong problem, or sense that a structural engineer will never click that button. We don't have a layer of product managers between you and the customer, and we don't plan to. Every engineer here exercises product judgement daily. If you've ever been frustrated that nobody asked you what should be built, this is the antidote.</p><h2 class="jobSectionHeader"><b><br>
How you'll grow</b></h2><p>
You'll learn an entire vertical: how structural engineering firms work, how AEC data formats behave, and how to build LLM/RAG systems that hold up in production. You'll work directly with our VP of Engineering and CTO, and as the team grows around you there's a clear path to owning a domain, leading projects, and eventually mentoring the engineers who come after you.</p><h2 class="jobSectionHeader"><b><br>
What we're looking for</b></h2><ul><li><p>
5+ years of experience with a track record of shipping and owning production systems.</p></li><li><p>
Strong backend experience, ideally Node.js/TypeScript or Python in a production context, and comfortable reading across other languages (C#, Python or TypeScript).</p></li><li><p>
Working knowledge of distributed systems fundamentals: async queues, event-driven workflows.</p></li><li><p>
The instinct to keep things simple under pressure, and the judgement to know when a tactical shortcut is right and when it isn't.</p></li><li><p>
Genuine product sense. You think about the user before you think about the implementation.</p></li><li><p>
Clear communication. We move between deeply technical, semi-technical and plain-language conversations every day, and we value clarity above speed.</p></li><li><p>
Kindness, curiosity, optimism and drive. We believe in being kind over being nice, we give and receive constructive feedback constantly, and we're building something bigger than ourselves.</p></li></ul><h2 class="jobSectionHeader"><b><br>
What will make you stand out</b></h2><ul><li><p>
LLM/RAG pipelines in production: embeddings, vector search, retrieval quality measurement.</p></li><li><p>
Graph-based data models, entity resolution, or knowledge graph tooling.</p></li><li><p>
Autodesk Platform Services or AEC data formats (IFC, Revit, ETABS, SAFE or similar).</p></li><li><p>
Windows desktop development (.NET / WPF / native integrations).</p></li><li><p>
Background in construction, structural engineering software, or document-intensive vertical SaaS.</p></li></ul><p>
Don't rule yourself out over the stack. We're looking for strong engineers with sound principles. Technologies are tools.</p><h2 class="jobSectionHeader"><b><br>
How we work</b></h2><p>
We believe in thorough automated testing. Not strict TDD, but every PR ships with the appropriate E2E tests, unit tests or eval harnesses. We own the entire platform, including deployment and reliability, so we control our own CI and CD. The team is autonomous, multi-disciplinary and empowered.</p><h2 class="jobSectionHeader"><b><br>
The process</b></h2><p>
We respect your time and move fast. You'll hear from us quickly after every stage, and the process is as much about you assessing us as the reverse. Ask us anything.</p><ul><li><p>
Initial screening call (15 mins)</p></li><li><p>
Technical conversation with our VP of Engineering, walking through some of your code (30 mins)</p></li><li><p>
Pairing session with the team (1&ndash;2 hours)</p></li><li><p>
Reference checks and offer</p></li></ul><h2 class="jobSectionHeader"><b><br>
