Job Description

What if you could use your technology skills to develop a product that impacts how communities’ hospitals, homes, sports stadiums, and schools worldwide are built?

That’s why we’re looking for a talented Principal Software Engineer to join Procore’s journey to revolutionize a historically underserved industry.

As a Principal Software Engineer in our Financials division, you will be responsible for delivering solutions that help customers manage the finances of construction projects across the globe.

What you’ll do:

• Build a new transactional financial system in a microservices architecture using Java, Postgres, Kafka, etc.

• Design and lead implementation of new solutions and services to deliver high quality scalable tools and features to our customers. 

• Develop fellow teammates by conducting code and design reviews, providing mentorship, pairing, and training opportunities

• Work up and down the stack to ship code for our Rails backend and our React frontend, and dive deep into the database layer to handle complex querying needs

• Collaborate with Engineering, Product, and UX to design and build solutions that delight users and solve critical business problems

• Drive collaboration with your team across the engineering organization and other stakeholders to advance team goals.

What we're looking for:

• 10+ years experience in software engineering fundamentals, Test Driven Development and Design principles (Java, Ruby on Rails, Typescript, Go, or similar languages)

• Experience designing and building software in a Service-Oriented Architecture using modern SDLC methodologies

• Experience as a technical leader on large initiatives with the ability to course correct as needed
