Summary

Job Title: Python Principal Architect

Locations: San Jose, CA (Onsite)

Duration: 12+ Months

 

Job Description:

  • We are looking for a Principal Architect — a deeply technical, hands-on leader who sits at the intersection of Functional requirements, system architecture, and pragmatic implementation. This is not a management role. It is a high-impact individual contributor position for someone who loves writing code, designing systems, and staying ahead of the market curve. 
  • You will set the technical direction for our engineering practice, drive architecture decisions from first principles, and act as the team''s primary connection to fast-moving developments
  • You will own how we build Apps  — not just what we build.
WHAT YOU''LL DO:
  • Architecture & System Design
  • Design end-to-end system architectures: APIs.
  • Define and own technical blueprints for new products and applications—from data ingestion and embedding pipelines through response generation, evaluation, and production monitoring.
  • Solve hard engineering problems:
  • Make deliberate, well-documented architecture decisions with clear trade-off analysis (build vs. buy, framework selection, deployment topology).
Hands-On Implementation:
  • Write production-quality code — Python, SQL, API services — across the full lifecycle:
  • Build and own reusable, framework-quality components that accelerate team velocity.
  • Rapidly prototype, validate with real data, and iterate; bring proofs-of-concept to production-grade systems with full observability and evaluation harnesses.
  • Own CI/CD pipelines, Docker-based deployment, and production telemetry for AI services. AI Market Intelligence & Technology Strategy
  • Continuously track and evaluate the AI landscape —agentic frameworks (LangGraph, Google ADK, CrewAI, AutoGen), retrieval methods, fine-tuning techniques, and emerging tooling.
  • Establish and enforce engineering standards: code review practices, PR templates, testing frameworks, and reusable component libraries that reduce development-to-deployment cycle times.
  • Serve as the senior technical reviewer for all designs — providing deep, opinionated feedback that raises the quality bar across the team.
  • Pair with engineers on hard problems, conduct design sessions, and create internal reference architectures and runbooks that embed best practices across the team.
  • Design and run internal AI upskilling to keep the team sharp on production-grade development. Cross-Functional Technical Partnership
  • Partner closely with Product, Data Science, and Platform Engineering to align architecture with product direction, data constraints, and infrastructure capabilities.
  • Communicate complex technical trade-offs clearly to non-technical stakeholders — translating architecture decisions into business impact narratives.
  • Work with compliance and legal teams in regulated environments (financial services, cybersecurity) and data-handling requirements.
WHAT WE''RE LOOKING FOR:
Must-Have Experience:
  • 12+ years of hands-on experience in full stack development with significant depth in production system delivery.
  • Proven track record architecting and shipping Enterprise Grade Applications.
  • Expert-level Python and SQL; fluency with Google Cloud Platform, AWS, Docker, FastAPI,  Django, and CI/CD.
