Job Summary

Infios is seeking a high-impact Principal Software Engineer to lead the design and development of enterprise-grade, cloud-native platforms. As a senior technical leader, you will drive architectural decisions, mentor engineering teams, and ensure the delivery of scalable, secure, and high performing systems built using modern distributed technologies.

This role is ideal for someone who combines deep technical expertise with strategic thinking and a passion for solving complex engineering challenges at scale.

What a day in the life looks like:

Technical Leadership

- Architect and design highly scalable, distributed, cloud-native systems using Python (3.11+), FastAPI, and asynchronous microservices.
- Lead end-to-end delivery of complex features across the Order Management ecosystem, prioritizing low-latency performance and high concurrency.
- Define engineering best practices, coding standards, and architectural guidelines tailored for asynchronous Python and event-driven workflows.
- Influence product and architectural roadmaps through deep technical insight and the strategic integration of AI Agents (Claude, OpenAI) into the development lifecycle.

Engineering Excellence

- Build enterprise-grade microservices and APIs with high performance, security, and reliability using FastAPI.
- Drive real-time, event-driven architecture (EDA) implementations using Apache Kafka for resilient, decoupled system communication and high-throughput data streaming.
- Architect effective data models with MongoDB and optimize high-speed caching and session management using Redis.
- AI-Augmented Development:



Leverage GitHub Copilot and Claude to accelerate the SDLC, from complex refactoring and documentation to automated unit test generation.
- Ensure quality through rigorous code reviews, architecture audits, and automated testing strategies using Pytest.

Cloud DevOps Ownership

- Lead AWS cloud deployment strategies, leveraging services such as EKS (Kubernetes), Lambda, SNS/SQS, and RDS/MongoDB.
- Implement robust CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions to automate containerized deployments, security scanning, and infrastructure as code (IaC).
- Design and maintain full-stack observability (CloudWatch, Prometheus, Grafana) and scalable infrastructure patterns.

Collaboration Influence

- Work cross-functionally across teams, geographies, and time zones.
- Partner with product managers, solution architects, QA, and DevOps to ensure seamless delivery.
- Facilitate technical discussions, design sessions, and decision-making forums.

Mentorship Leadership

- Coach and mentor senior and junior engineers, enabling skill growth and technical depth.
- Promote strong engineering culture, continuous improvement, and knowledge sharing.
- Champion best practices to reduce technical debt and total cost of ownership.

What you bring to the team:





- 10 years of software engineering experience with increasing leadership responsibility in distributed environments.
- Expert-level proficiency in Python, including FastAPI, advanced AsyncIO patterns, REST API design, and performance profiling/tuning of Pythonic services.
- Proven experience architecting and developing microservices and highly available distributed systems.
- NoSQL databases (MongoDB, Redis)
- Deep experience with Kafka or other event streaming platforms for building resilient, real-time data pipelines.
- Strong understanding of cloud architectures (AWS/GCP) and services such as EKS, Lambda, S3, networking, serverless, and observability tools (CloudWatch, Prometheus).
- Proficiency with Docker, Kubernetes, and container orchestration for managing scalable Python workloads.
- Modern Engineering Workflows: Strong experience leveraging AI Agents (Claude, GitHub Copilot) to accelerate development and GitHub Actions for robust CI/CD automation.
- Solid knowledge of software design patterns, algorithms, data structures, and system design principles.
- Strong experience driving engineering excellence -test coverage (Pytest), automation, code reviews, and comprehensive technical documentation.
- Excellent communication skills and the ability to influence technical direction across multiple teams.
