We're working with a mission-driven leader in aging-tech and caregiver support on this exciting opportunity. We are looking for a visionary technical leader to architect and modernize a high-impact Assessment platform that serves millions of policyholders.

As a Principal Engineer, you will drive the technical strategy using a cutting-edge stack including TypeScript, React, React Native, and GraphQL. You’ll be at the forefront of building scalable, resilient systems that empower families to navigate the complexities of long-term care with confidence and ease.

The Role

• Define and champion best-in-class engineering practices, including CI/CD pipeline automation and DevSecOps integration to ensure production-ready excellence.

• Own the technical vision and decision-making for platform hosting, deployment strategies, and real-time communication systems.

• Build and maintain robust GraphQL and REST APIs, ensuring seamless integration with third-party SSO providers and payment systems.

• Mentor a high-performing engineering team through hands-on code reviews, technical design discussions, and a culture of continuous learning.

What You'll Need

• 10+ years of professional software development experience, with a track record in Staff or Principal-level leadership roles.

• Expert-level proficiency in TypeScript, Node.js, and modern frontend frameworks like React and Next.js.

• Deep mobile expertise across React Native, Flutter, Swift, and Kotlin, with experience managing the full App Store/Play Store lifecycle.

• Strong database design skills using PostgreSQL and MongoDB, alongside experience with event-driven and messaging architectures.

• Proven success delivering large-scale B2B/B2C platforms, preferably involving real-time video or complex transaction-based systems.

What's On Offer

• Exceptional retirement benefits including a 100% employer-funded retirement account and multiple 401(k) options.

• Comprehensive wellness support including gym reimbursements, caregiver services, and mental health support.

• Robust professional development with tuition reimbursement, student loan repayment, and certification support.

• Generous PTO, 12 paid holidays, and dedicated volunteer time off to support your local community.
