Job Technologies
Your role in the team
- As Principal Software Engineer, you are a senior individual contributor who leads through technical authority and influence rather than line management.
- You take responsibility for complex technical topics and architectural decisions across teams, services, and organizational boundaries, drive them largely autonomously, and align both engineering teams and business stakeholders behind a clear technical direction.
- Play a leading role in the design and delivery of significant technical initiatives across the Licensing organization and beyond, not just within a single team.
- Drive complex, ambiguous technical problems to a solution and bring teams along with you.
- Set technical direction across teams and the wider organization, and align both technical peers and business stakeholders behind it.
- Define how AI is utilized throughout the delivery lifecycle, not only in coding: requirements and design, agent-assisted review and testing, and operations, and enhance the team's AI-native maturity over time.
- Build the tooling, guardrails, and practices that let engineers delegate real work to agents and trust the result, with judgment and review as the bar.
- Evaluate and introduce new technologies and practices that improve our systems and ways of working.
- Steigern Sie die bereichsübergreifende Produktivität durch Verbesserung der Lieferung, Zusammenarbeit und Kommunikation sowie durch Etablierung und Integration bewährter Engineering-Praktiken.
- Coach and mentor senior engineers, and partner closely with engineering managers, product architects and product engineers.
- Drive down technical debt and lift engineering quality across the organization.

- Able to align both technical and business stakeholders, and to make and communicate technical decisions with autonomy and sound judgment.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, and a collaborative, mentoring mindset.
- Excellent communication skills in English. English is our working language; German not required.
