Principal Software Engineer - Agent & App Platform

Responsibilities

• You’ll own significant technical problems end-to-end and help build the platform primitives powering Atlan’s next generation of apps and agents.
• Depending on your strengths and interests, you may
• Design and build platform services for agents, tools, and MCP servers, including registries, gateways, authentication, authorization, routing, policy enforcement, audit logging, and tracing.
• Build the primitives that power agent execution and lifecycle — including templates, marketplace experiences, secure sandboxing, tenant-aware context, durable sessions, checkpointing, and observability.
• Evolve Atlan’s workflow and runtime infrastructure using Temporal, Kubernetes, and cloud-native technologies, while improving reliability, scalability, performance, and cost.
• Design and operate multi-tenant distributed systems for enterprise workloads at significant scale, solving complex problems around isolation, failure recovery, capacity, and noisy neighbours.
• Partner with Product and Engineering teams on how apps and agents come together across registration, distribution, and runtime, and contribute to architecture, RFCs, and technical standards.
• Mentor engineers and raise the technical bar through strong engineering practices, design reviews, and technical leadership.
