Excellent written and verbal communication skills
Significant experience leading large scale, data heavy, company critical projects, through design, development, and operations
Experience defining and evangelizing best practices around architecture, operations, and coding guidelines
Experience mentoring senior engineers and tech leads in how to communicate technical topics at scale, define non-functional requirements, measure SLOs, and balance tech foundation and product timelines
Ability to run openloop, maximizing engineering impact by balancing time spent on direct development, architectural and code review, and mentorship
Ability to quickly come up to speed on our tech stack, which is a mix of python and java, deployed on AWS

Some experience with LLMs, implementing standard patterns (Agents, RAG, Tools), and leveraging popular frameworks
Familiarity with security data (e.g., endpoint and network logs)

What the job involves

As a Principal Software Engineer reporting directly to the SVP of Engineering, you will be a strategic asset across the entire engineering organization, including our high scale data ingestion and processing pipeline, our advanced workflow features, and our AI agents
You will work directly on company critical projects and act as a mentor and standard bearer for engineers throughout the organization
Develop and evangelize architectural best practices for operating maintainable, high scale systems and review designs and code to ensure those practices are being followed
Mentor tech leads across various functional areas in developing non-functional requirements, performing code and architecture reviews, and communicating technical concepts at scale
Establish operational rigor within engineering for monitoring, alerting, and responding to incidents
Work directly with engineering teams to design, build, and operate key parts of Anvilogic’s infrastructure

Our take

Multi-cloud and cloud-first workloads have brought about modernization for software developers, but security features for these workflows often have to play catch-up. Anvilogic bridges an enterprise's legacy data and information with the new landscape of the cloud. Through this, it transforms security operations for enterprises making the switch.

The company delivers cyber threat detection and hunting through a client's company’s Security Operations Center (SOC), utilizing security knowledge-trained generative AI. It pitches itself to enterprises that are digitizing their core functions, and can use Anvilogic’s platform as a bridge towards an updated security system.

Anvilogic's differentiation has continued to evolve beyond its multi-data platform capabilities with the 2026 launch of Blueprints, an AI-native workflow automation layer for the SOC. Unveiled at RSA 2026, it allows analysts to create and deploy automation in natural language, turning expert workflows into scalable, repeatable processes and further advancing autonomous security operations.
