What this role is
You are an engineer who leads projects at the scope of a service or major subsystem.
That means: when a problem lands on your desk, it's usually ambiguous. Your job is to turn it into a clear problem statement, design a system to solve it, ship it through to production, and own how it behaves once it's there. You'll work with one or two engineers on most projects, and you'll be the technical person product, ops, and other engineering teams talk to about that domain.
You're not a senior individual contributor who only writes code for assigned tickets. You're not a tech lead who's stopped writing code. You're the person between those two — still hands-on, but increasingly the one shaping what gets built.
What you'll do
- Solve 2–4 complex problems a year end-to-end: shape the problem, design the system, ship it, monitor it.
- Design single-service systems independently. Define API contracts, data models, scale and reliability requirements. Document and review your design with peers before building.
- Turn ambiguity into clarity. Take half-formed product tasks and partner with PMs to define what's actually being built. Push back when the ask doesn't make sense.
- Stay hands-on. Write code that goes into production. Drive code reviews. Debug across service boundaries. Refactor when the codebase needs it.
- Mentor 1–2 junior engineers. Be someone's first reviewer. Pair when it helps. Take their growth as your responsibility, not a side activity.
- Be in hiring. Interview candidates regularly. Help shape the interview bar for your function.
- Own outcomes, not output. Track the business or operational metric your work moves. If it doesn't move, that's a problem you own — not a problem you delivered to.
What we're looking for
- Over 4 years of professional experience in software development, specifically focused on solving large-scale technical challenges.
- Expert-level proficiency in at least one major programming language (such as Java, GO, Rust, NodeJS etc) with a focus on writing scalable, maintainable, and unit-tested code.
- Strong command of object-oriented design, design patterns, and the creation of intuitive class-level interfaces.
- Hands-on experience with multi-threading, concurrency, and Test-Driven Development (TDD).
- Deep understanding of relational databases (Postgres) and various NoSQL technologies like HBase, Elasticsearch, or Aerospike, Cassandra
- Comprehensive knowledge of the full software development life cycle on Linux platforms.
- Proven ability to build highly scalable applications that manage complex business logic and massive datasets.
- A proactive, "go-getter" mindset characterized by high energy and dedication to task ownership.
- Experience thriving in fast-paced startup environments with a strong sense of commitment and accountability.
- A passionate drive to tackle complex, real-world problems through innovative engineering.
- You've made and defended technical decisions, picked up problems no one assigned, or built things people use that no one asked for.
- Strong fundamentals in your primary stack — concurrency, data modeling, debugging across systems, performance work. We're stack-agnostic for the right person.
- Experience designing systems with explicit attention to scale, reliability, and cost — not just functional correctness.
- Collaborate with a wide range of stakeholders to monitor project outcomes and iteratively refine features based on real-world impact.
About the Role
We are hiring Staff / Principal Engineers to take full, hands-on ownership of Blitzy's most critical production-grade systems and to deliver high-leverage features that materially improve customer outcomes and engineering velocity. This is the most senior individual contributor role at the company today.
This is not a Senior-plus role, an architecture-only role, or a promotion-track role. We are looking for someone who has already operated at Principal / Staff+ scope in a highly technical environment and expects to spend their time writing, reviewing, and shipping production code.
This role is 100% hands-on. Leverage comes from system ownership, execution quality, and durable technical decisions — not people management or process.
Responsibilities
- Own mission-critical production systems end-to-end, ensuring correctness, scalability, performance, reliability, and operational excellence.
- Design, build, and ship high-impact backend systems and features that improve product reliability, performance, and customer value.
- Architect scalable services and cloud infrastructure using technologies such as Python, REST, gRPC, Kubernetes, and Terraform.
- Identify and resolve complex technical bottlenecks that limit engineering quality, system performance, or organizational velocity.
- Build and operate LLM-powered systems and validation loops that evaluate correctness, consistency, durability, and production performance.
- Design and evolve data architectures incorporating relational, NoSQL, graph, and vector databases to support complex enterprise applications and semantic retrieval.
- Modernize and improve complex enterprise systems while balancing reliability, maintainability, scalability, and delivery speed.
- Set and uphold engineering quality standards through hands-on technical leadership, sound technical judgment, and ownership of long-term technical decisions.
Qualifications
- Direct experience with Python as a primary programming language, backend frameworks, and microservices architectures.
- Expertise in REST and gRPC, with proficiency in Node.js and JavaScript.
- Proficiency in GCP, along with experience using at least one additional cloud platform such as AWS or Azure.
- Advanced knowledge of Kubernetes and Terraform in production environments.
- Experience operating highly available production systems, including monitoring, scalability, reliability, performance optimization, and operational tooling.
- Strong knowledge of SQL and NoSQL databases, including PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Cassandra, or DynamoDB.
- Familiarity with graph databases such as Neo4j and vector databases or embedding infrastructure for semantic search and retrieval.
- Hands-on experience building and operating LLM-powered systems in production, including evaluation, validation, regression testing, tracing, and failure analysis.
- Working knowledge of LangSmith or comparable LLM observability and evaluation tools; familiarity with OpenAI, Anthropic, or similar model providers is a plus.
- Ability to contribute across the full stack, with a strong understanding of frontend architecture and the ability to debug, design, and ship across frontend, backend, infrastructure, and AI systems.
- Understanding of large-scale enterprise software systems, including architecture, integration, deployment, modernization, and long-term maintainability.
- Proven track record of operating at Staff+, Principal Engineer, or equivalent level, independently driving complex technical initiatives and delivering high-impact outcomes with minimal supervision.
