Senior Principal Software Engineer

At Procore, AI isn’t a specialized tool, it's a core competency. We expect every team member to be AI-literate, leveraging generative tools and agentic workflows to move faster and work smarter. You won’t just use AI; you’ll be building the agentic future of construction and set the technical direction the rest of engineering follows.

Own the multi-year technical vision and architecture for foundational platform services that power the industry's most complex construction workflows — spanning products, organizations, and modalities (web, mobile, API, and agentic surfaces)

Set company-wide architectural direction, standards, and patterns; identify and resolve the highest-leverage, highest-ambiguity technical problems across the engineering organization before they become blockers

Act as the final technical authority on the most consequential design decisions, driving alignment across multiple engineering divisions on distributed systems, platform, data, and AI/agentic architecture

Serve as a force multiplier: mentor and grow Principal and Staff engineers, cultivate the next generation of senior technical leaders, and raise the engineering bar through architecture reviews, design councils, and technical strategy forums

Define Procore's approach to AI-native engineering — from agentic development workflows in the SDLC to production agentic systems in the product — and evangelize adoption across P&T

Remain hands-on where it matters most: prototyping high-risk/high-reward bets, unblocking critical initiatives, and writing code and design documents that serve as exemplars for the organization

Partner directly with the VPs, and product/UX/business executives to shape corporate and product strategy; translate strategic objectives into a coherent, durable technology strategy and hold the organization accountable to it

Bachelors or Masters Degree in Computer Science, a related field, or comparable work experience
