As a Senior Principal Software Engineer at our team, you will be focusing on hands-on development of scalable, high-performance applications. Your commitment to the craft of software engineering, proficiency in object-oriented programming (OOP), data structures, and algorithms is essential. This individual contributor (IC) role is designated for the technical track, emphasizing direct hands-on software development rather than managerial or team leadership. Your responsibilities will include architecting, designing, and implementing both frontend and backend software systems using the provided tech stack with a focus on hands-on coding. You will apply Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) principles and efficient data structures and algorithms to solve real-world problems. Writing clean, maintainable, and scalable code following best practices such as DRY, SOLID, and design patterns will be crucial. Your role will involve evaluating and troubleshooting complex technical issues in a structured and efficient manner, creating effective solutions that leverage deep understanding of software engineering principles rather than relying on external dependencies like AI-generated code. Implementing rigorous testing strategies using industry tools and ensuring consistently high code quality will also be part of your responsibilities. You will be responsible for building robust backend systems using Node.js, Express, PostgreSQL, and other modern tools while ensuring cross-system compatibility. Designing and managing APIs and database systems optimized for scalability and performance, as well as working with messaging and event-driven architectures using Kafka, will be essential. Developing dynamic, user-friendly frontend applications using React, Redux Toolkit, and associated libraries, maintaining engaging and responsive UIs leveraging libraries like Bootstrap and Reactstrap, will also fall under your purview. Additionally, managing containerized applications using Docker and CI/CD automation workflows with Jenkins, continuously improving the deployment pipeline for faster feature delivery in production will be part of your role. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams, participate in Sprint planning, code reviews, and team retrospectives to contribute technical insight and domain expertise. Working with product managers and QA teams to refine requirements and test deliverables effectively will also be crucial. Qualifications: - Strong hands-on expertise in Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) principles, data structures, and algorithms. - Proficiency in core technologies such as JavaScript, React, Node.js, Express, PostgreSQL, and distributed systems such as Kafka. - Deep knowledge of frontend and backend development practices and patterns. - Strong debugging and problem-solving skills. - Proven experience with testing frameworks (e.g., Jest, Cypress) for both unit and end-to-end testing. - Skilled in using tools such as ESLint and Prettier for code consistency and quality. - Hands-on experience with containerized deployments using Docker and CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins. Preferred Skills: - Familiarity with styling libraries/frameworks like Bootstrap and Reactstrap for creating responsive UIs. - Experience working on large-scale enterprise applications or distributed architectures. - Strong grasp of Agile development practices and collaboration tools. Soft Skills: - Exceptional analytical and problem-solving capabilities. - Excellent verbal and written communication skills. - A proactive mindset with the ability to work both independently and collaboratively. If you are a passionate software engineer who values creativity, strong coding practices, and efficiency, apply now to join a team that thrives on technical excellence without shortcuts.,
