MATLAB Graphics team is looking for a Principal Software Engineer to help shape the evolution of MATLAB graphics. This role offers a unique opportunity to influence the design and direction of a graphics and data visualization platform used by millions of scientists, engineers, and educators worldwide to visualize and analyze data.
As a Principal Engineer, you will bring deep experience in cloud application development to modernize and extend MATLAB's graphics architecture. You will shape the long-term direction of the architecture spanning desktop and web. You will be partnering with, influencing, and coaching engineers who specialize in graphics systems and browser-based rendering. If you are motivated by solving challenging architectural problems, and delivering high customer impact, this role offers a rare opportunity to make a lasting contribution.
MathWorks nurtures growth, appreciates inclusivity, encourages initiative, values teamwork, shares success, and rewards excellence.
Responsibilities - Drive the technical evolution of the MATLAB Graphics architecture toward a cloud-native model, partnering with stakeholders to align on goals and priorities.
- Mentor junior engineers through technical guidance and design reviews, supporting their technical growth and raising the quality bar across the team.
- Apply modern cloud engineering practices to graphics and visualization systems (CI/CD, observability, scalability, security).
- Deliver concrete enhancements to MATLAB graphics and interactive visualization(e.g., performance, rendering fidelity, interactivity, and new visualization capabilities).
Minimum Qualifications- A bachelor's degree and 10 years of professional work experience (or equivalent experience) is required.
Additional Qualifications - Understanding of cloud-native architecture patterns - including scalability, reliability, and observability - to guide the evolution of a graphics architecture toward a cloud native model.
- Demonstrated ability to influence cross-functional stakeholders and drive alignment on technical direction and prioritization for complex systems.
- Track record of mentoring and developing engineers through technical guidance, design feedback, and architectural reviews.
- Experience with MATLAB or other scientific computation and data visualization software.
- Familiarity with web graphics or charting frameworks such as D3.js, Three.js, or similar.
- Familiarity with designing and implementing computer graphics and data visualization systems using browser-based rendering technologies (e.g., WebGL).
