Youll drive architecture decisions, enable cross-team integration, and ensure engineering alignment. Youll coach developers and enforce strong practices in testing, security, code quality, and operational readiness to deliver robust solutions.

Responsibilities

- Architect design scalable, maintainable solutions with backward compatibility in mind.
- Lead delivery of complex/high-risk features, including hands-on coding when required.
- Ensure engineering quality via code reviews, test strategy, definition of done, and regression control.
- Drive secure engineering practices, including auth flows, dependency risk, and vulnerability remediation.
- Coordinate cross-team dependencies and integrations across platform, data, setup/release, and key integration points.
- Own production readiness and reliability, including observability, performance, release risk assessment, and rollback planning.
- Shape backlog and delivery plans: provide technical input to Product Owners/RD, translate themes into executable plans, and set realistic scope and timelines.

Essential requirements
- Education/experience: Bachelors/Masters in CS/Engineering (or equivalent practical experience).
- Seniority leadership: 12+ years full-stack development, including 3+ years as technical lead owning delivery, mentoring, requirement shaping, and planning/estimation.
- Core tech stack:



Strong enterprise web app experience with C#/.NET plus modern JavaScript/UI engineering (including Angular, and familiarity with jQuery).
- Software design excellence: Strong OOP, design patterns, and clean, maintainable coding practices.
- Security-by-design: Proven ability to design/build solutions and frameworks with secure engineering principles.
- Delivery collaboration: Excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration, plus strong CI/CD release engineering (quality gates, deployment governance, rollback planning) with hands-on Azure DevOps Boards/Pipelines.

Desired skills and competencies
- Experience building high-performance enterprise visualization/UX (large datasets, real-time updates, rendering/performance tuning, responsive interaction).
- Experience designing distributed/connected systems spanning on-prem components and cloud (edge/device server cloud), including integration constraints (latency, reliability, versioning).
- Robust operational excellence / production-first mindset: observability (logs/metrics/tracing), incident triage, performance diagnostics, and release health monitoring in live environments.
- Proven ability to lead platform/framework evolution across multiple interdependent teams (standardization, reusability, reducing duplication, long-term maintainability).
- Habit of technical discovery and de-risking spikes/prototypes, evaluating trade-offs, and sharing learnings via design docs/tech talks to build alignment.

Preferred experience
- Experience developing industrial/process data visualization products (e.g., PI System/PI Vision or similar historian/SCADA-style platforms).
- Proven performance tuning for data-heavy UI and API workflows (rendering, paging, caching, query optimization).
- Familiarity with AI-assisted development tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot) and responsible usage in engineering workflows.
- Experience or familiarity with modern authentication/authorization patterns (OIDC, JWT, MSAL) and auth modernization.
- Knowledge of the PI System domain: PI Vision, PI AF, PI Data Archive (data modeling, time-series concepts, typical user workflows).
