Role Description

We're looking for a Principal Engineer to own the architecture and technical direction of our core platform. You'll operate at the intersection of high-scale distributed systems and fintech-grade security and compliance, turning fast-growing but increasingly complex product surfaces into resilient, extensible platforms. This is a hands-on technical leadership role: you will design and review critical systems, set engineering standards across teams, and mentor senior engineers, while staying close enough to the code to unblock the hardest problems yourself.


Key Responsibilities

  • Own end-to-end architecture for high-concurrency, high-availability platform services, from design through production operability.
  • Define and drive adoption of architectural patterns (event-driven microservices, multi-tenant SaaS, distributed locking/coordination) across multiple engineering teams.
  • Partner with Product, Risk/Compliance, and cross-functional engineering teams (Payments, Onboarding, DevOps) to translate business goals into platform capabilities.
  • Establish and champion engineering best practices: blameless post-mortems, proactive health monitoring, and structural fixes over firefighting.
  • Directly mentor senior and staff-level engineers; act as a force multiplier for technical decision-making across the org.
  • Drive down operational toil through automation, self-service tooling, and platform abstractions that let other teams move faster independently.
  • Represent engineering in architecture reviews, technical due-diligence, and cross-org planning.


Qualifications

  • 7+ years of professional software engineering experience, with a track record of owning systems at scale in production.
  • Proven experience architecting and scaling backend platforms handling significant user growth (e.g., 10x-20x) or transaction volume, ideally in fintech, payments, or another regulated domain.
  • Deep expertise in distributed systems design: microservices, async workflow orchestration (e.g., Temporal or equivalent), event-driven architecture, and data consistency trade-offs.
  • Strong hands-on experience with at least one of Java or Python, and the ability to review and guide code across languages/stacks.
  • Experience with cloud infrastructure and platform tooling (AWS, Kubernetes, Terraform, CI/CD pipelines) and observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog, or similar).
  • Demonstrated ability to lead cross-functional engineering initiatives and mentor engineers.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication; comfortable driving alignment across engineering, product, and compliance stakeholders.
  • Experience working with enterprise ERP integrations (SAP, Oracle, or similar) is a plus, especially around master data sync, financial workflows.
  • Hands-on experience with agentic development is required — you regularly build with and orchestrate AI coding agents (e.g., Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot Agent Mode) as part of your day-to-day engineering workflow, not just as an occasional autocomplete tool.
  • Working knowledge of ETL and data pipeline design is a plus; hands-on experience with AWS Glue is preferred. SFTP/EDI, webhooks, API gateways, batch reconciliation

The Role

We are looking for a Senior Product Manager to embed on-site with one of CAW's enterprise customers — sitting with their functional leaders, understanding their workflows, identifying the highest-ROI automation opportunities, and prototyping solutions yourself using AI-assisted development tools like Claude Code or OpenAI Codex.

This is not a project management role. We are looking for someone with strong business analysis chops who can walk into a domain they've never worked in, study it quickly, break down complex workflows, and figure out what to build. You should have a coding background and be able to prototype working solutions yourself — not just write specs and hand them off. You stay involved throughout production so nothing is lost in the communication between the customer and our remote engineers.

You are the one person the customer sees. The building and running happen behind you, at CAW HQ, on Gantry.


A Typical Week

Monday–Tuesday: Interview functional leaders and their team members to gain a deep understanding of their current processes, pain points, and undocumented workflows. Map what you find.

Wednesday: Apply structured prioritization frameworks (RICE, ICE, or equivalent) to rank discovered use cases by ROI. Classify each problem as deterministic automation, AI automation, an AI agent (built on Gantry), or a Custom Ops Platform (COP) opportunity — and draft the solution approach in collaboration with CAW's engineering and AI architects at HQ.

Thursday: Present the top problems and proposed solutions to the functional leader for buy-in. Get alignment on what to tackle first.

Friday and the following week: Prototype the solution using Claude Code, Codex, or equivalent AI-assisted development tools. Target: a working prototype in under a week. Present the prototype to the functional team, collect feedback, and iterate until it meets their needs. Once validated, draft a proposal to productionize it on Gantry (or as a COP) in collaboration with HQ, and drive approval from the functional head.

Ongoing: Spend a few hours daily collaborating with CAW's engineering teams at HQ to keep productionizing on track — while simultaneously starting discovery on the next problem with the next functional leader.


Key Responsibilities

Use Case Mining & Discovery

  • Embed on-site with the customer. Sit with functional leaders across departments — operations, finance, CX, supply chain, HR — to understand their workflows, pain points, and priorities.
  • Don't wait for requirements to be handed to you. Proactively identify problems CAW can solve with agents on Gantry or with a Custom Ops Platform. Prioritize ruthlessly based on business impact, technical feasibility, and speed to value.
  • Run structured discovery sessions. Map workflows. Document undocumented processes. Find the use cases the customer doesn't even know they have.
  • Build a use-case pipeline: a ranked, living backlog of agent and COP opportunities for you and the customer's leadership to review regularly. This backlog is how the account grows.

Solution Design & Rapid Prototyping

  • Classify each problem as deterministic automation, AI automation, an AI agent, or a COP. Draft solution approaches in collaboration with CAW HQ architects.
  • Prototype solutions yourself using Claude Code, Codex, or equivalent AI-assisted development tools. A working demo in under a week is the standard.
  • Translate validated prototypes into structured specs — clear problem statements, acceptance criteria, scope boundaries, and success metrics — that CAW's engineers can productionize on Gantry without ambiguity.
  • Work in tight weekly cycles: discover, prototype, validate, spec, hand off for production — and stay involved through delivery.

Customer Relationship & Adoption

  • You represent CAW inside the customer's organization. Build deep trust with functional leaders and CXOs.
  • Own delivery timelines, customer expectations, and escalations. You are the single point of accountability the customer sees.
  • Ensure what gets built is what gets used. Drive adoption by working with the customer's end users, running training sessions, and instrumenting usage metrics.
  • Know when to push (the customer is avoiding a hard decision) and when to listen (there's a real constraint you haven't understood yet).

Platform & Product Feedback Loop

  • Surface structured insights back to the Gantry product team: capability gaps, integration friction, customer objections, and use case patterns that should become reusable agents or platform features.
  • Spot which agents and patterns are reusable across customers so they can be added to CAW's library and accelerate the next engagement. Flag when a customer ask is a one-off vs. when it's a pattern many customers share.
  • Deliver actionable, prioritized field intelligence — not a dump of Slack messages. Your feedback directly informs the Gantry roadmap.


What We're Looking For

  • 4–7 years of experience in a customer-facing product or business analysis role, such as Product Manager, Business Analyst, Solutions Consultant, or Forward Deployed Engineer at a SaaS/AI company.
  • Coding background - You have written code professionally or as part of product work. You understand APIs, data flows, and system architecture well enough to prototype, not just spec.
  • Demonstrable AI-assisted development experience. Show us products, prototypes, or internal tools you have built using Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Cursor, or equivalent tools. We want to see output, not claims.
  • Heavy business analysis experience. You have demonstrable examples of walking into a domain with vague or undefined requirements, studying it deeply, and cracking the problem. We are not looking for project managers who track tickets — we want people who figure out what the tickets should be.
  • Strong speccing discipline. You can write a clear, buildable spec with acceptance criteria that an engineer can work from without ambiguity.
  • Client-facing experience. Proven ability to run discovery with enterprise customers, manage stakeholders with competing priorities, and build trust with functional leaders and CXOs.
  • Comfort with ambiguity. You will walk into customer organizations with no playbook. You need to figure out what matters, fast.
  • Excellent communication. You can translate between a non-technical business leader and an engineer in the same meeting.
  • Willingness to be on-site. This is an embedded role, not a remote one.
  • Experience with AI/ML platforms, agent frameworks, automation tools, or enterprise SaaS is strongly preferred.
  • A bias toward doing, not analyzing. You are measured by use cases shipped to production and prototypes that land, not decks presented.
