CORE VALUES
YOUR IMPACT
As a Principal Software Engineer, you will be a senior technical leader and strategic influencer shaping Redwood’s RunMyJobs platform. You will drive high-impact technical decisions, own complex system designs, and lead initiatives that span teams and domains. Your work will translate business needs into scalable, resilient full-stack solutions that meet both functional and non-functional requirements.
In this fast-paced, agile environment, you will lead projects from concept through delivery, collaborating closely with product, design, engineering, finance, and customer success teams to ensure alignment and success. You will set the standard for engineering excellence by mentoring engineers at all levels and championing a culture of continuous improvement, innovation, and technical rigor.
A key part of this role is to ensure development teams follow best practices, coding standards, and technical requirements. You will provide hands-on technical guidance and architectural direction, including code and design reviews, while creating and maintaining design and code standards. Understanding, communicating, and enforcing Redwood’s software architecture strategy will be fundamental.
You will proactively identify critical technical challenges related to quality, scalability, observability, and performance. By spotting early risks in architecture or implementation, you help prevent issues before they affect delivery or user experience. Leveraging data analysis, code reviews, and collaboration with cross-functional teams, you ensure that solutions are robust, efficient, and scalable, driving Redwood’s platform forward with confidence.
You will work directly with the Engineering manager for your teams and collaborate closely with Redwood’s Architecture team to ensure technical alignment, consistency, and strategic direction across the platform. As a key member of the engineering leadership group, you will influence architectural decisions and contribute to the evolution of our engineering strategy.
This is a senior individual contributor role with broad technical ownership and no direct people management responsibilities.
Your responsibilities will also include:
