You will operate at the intersection of two worlds: cutting-edge Generative AI (agents, RAG, vectorization) and high-scale Fullstack Development. As a Principal Engineer, you will be the technical authority responsible for the end-to-end delivery of agentic systems that bridge the gap between Broadcom's IT infrastructure and its core design engineering business units.

Agentic Framework Architecture: Define the long-term technical roadmap for AI orchestration, currently leveraging LangGraph while maintaining the flexibility to pivot as the pathway evolves.
Cross-Functional Technical Bridge: Marry production-grade Fullstack development with AI logic, setting the standard for how the organization builds non-deterministic software at scale.
Team Upleveling & Mentorship: Act as a technical multiplier, conducting formal design reviews, mentoring senior staff, and proposing fluid architectural options that advance the team's capabilities.
Infrastructure Strategy: Partner with the infrastructure team to optimize the deployment of AI models and vector databases within Kubernetes environments.
Strategic Communication: Communicate complex AI roadmaps and project statuses clearly to both technical squads and executive stakeholders.
Qualifications
Education: Bachelors degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field (Master’s or PhD preferred).
Experience: Minimum of 12 years of Software Engineering experience, with a proven track record of leading and delivering complex, large-scale projects.
Generative AI Mastery: Expert-level experience in building agentic workflows, RAG architectures, and complex orchestration (e.g., LangGraph, CrewAI).
Fullstack Expertise: Deep, hands-on experience in both frontend and backend development, with mastery of Python and modern enterprise-grade languages.
Data & System Architecture: Expert knowledge of vector databases (Pinecone, Weaviate, Milvus) and the programming principles required to scale them.
Deployment & Ops Knowledge: High proficiency in Kubernetes, Docker, and modern CI/CD patterns to ensure AI agents are production-ready.
Engineering Rigor: Expert in version control (GitHub), Test-Driven Development (TDD), and automated testing specifically tailored for AI outputs.
Preferred Skills
Demonstrated experience running cross-departmental projects in a fast-paced environment.
Experience managing AI-driven automation for a mixed set of software and hardware assets.
Proven ability to conduct peer evaluations and formal design reviews that drive architectural excellence across an enterprise.
