Hands-on Engineering + Architecture + AI Adoption + Data Visualization + Platform Evolution
As Lead Software Engineer – AI, Data Visualization & Platform, you will help bridge architectural vision, product innovation, advanced visualization, and day-to-day engineering execution.
You will work closely with our Lead Solutions Architect, Products Integrative Director, Technical Project Manager, and Staff and Senior Developers across front-end and back-end teams. You will contribute to both our current production platform and the next generation of our technology.
This is a hands-on technical leadership role, with approximately 70% of your time dedicated to technical execution and 30% focused on technical leadership, mentorship, and team development.
You will bring strong software engineering experience, architectural thinking, curiosity, and a practical interest in AI and emerging technologies.
Key Responsibilities
1. Technical Leadership, AI Adoption & Delivery (30%)
- Mentor and support developers while fostering a culture of technical excellence, curiosity, and continuous learning.
- Drive the practical adoption of AI-assisted development tools and workflows across the engineering team.
- Establish effective practices and guidelines for using AI while maintaining strong standards for code quality, testing, security, and code review.
- Collaborate with the Lead Solutions Architect on architecture, system design, and technical direction.
- Partner with the Products Integrative Director to explore and translate current product ideas into technical solutions.
- Evaluate emerging technologies and prototype approaches that can create meaningful product or engineering advantages.
- Work closely with the Technical Project Manager to ensure technical feasibility, identify risks, and support reliable delivery.
- Participate in occasional onsite deployments and international travel when required.
2. Technical Excellence & Hands-on Development (70%)
- Write and maintain production-quality code for critical system components across the full stack.
- Evolve and progressively modernize our Angular and C#/.NET Core platform.
- Contribute to scalable architectures, distributed systems, APIs, data flows, and third-party integrations.
- Help introduce next-generation capabilities involving cloud-native applications, containerization, event-driven systems, and modern deployment practices.
- Develop and integrate AI-powered features into production software, helping move initiatives from experimentation to reliable capabilities.
- Contribute to AI applications involving LLMs, agents, RAG, embeddings, intelligent search, workflow orchestration, and related technologies.
- Help develop advanced, interactive, and real-time data visualization experiences for complex datasets such as financial markets, elections, sports, mapping, and dashboards.
- Optimize real-time data systems, integrations, performance, reliability, and deployment processes.
- Collaborate with Staff and Senior Developers on technical design and code reviews.

The Profile We Are Looking For
You are comfortable moving between code, components, systems, architecture, and product.
You can dive into a .NET service to solve a production issue, collaborate with the Lead Solutions Architect on a technical approach, work with the Products Integrative Director to explore new capabilities, and help turn an idea or prototype into a reliable production solution.
You stay curious and technically current. You are willing to experiment, challenge assumptions constructively, and introduce innovation without compromising quality.
You are also motivated by helping others grow: sharing knowledge, mentoring developers, and helping teams adopt better tools and practices.
Years of experience alone do not define success in this role. We are looking for someone who brings strong technical judgment, practical creativity, and the desire to help move both the technology and the team forward.
Potential Backgrounds
We are open to candidates with different professional backgrounds, including:
- Lead Software Engineer
- Staff or Principal Software Engineer
- Technical Lead
- Senior Software Architect
- Senior Full-Stack Engineer with technical leadership experience
- Engineering Lead or Senior Developer with a strong hands-on focus
Job titles matter less than the depth of your technical expertise, your ability to remain hands-on, your architectural perspective, and your willingness to help others grow.
