Principal Software Engineer

Overview

As a product engineer on UiPath’s Intelligence Document Processing, you design and operate AI-driven ingestion, parsing, indexing, and evaluation systems for enterprise documents. You’ll work across multi-cloud, on-premises, and air-gapped environments to deliver high-volume, trustworthy solutions. You’ll turn ideas into production features, measure impact, and iterate to improve accuracy and governance. This role blends complex systems with LLM-in-production challenges in a fast-growing, collaborative setting.

• Develop across the pipeline: ingestion, parsing/extraction, indexing/retrieval, evaluation
• Take features from idea to production and continuously measure and improve them
• Solve concurrency, latency, and distributed systems problems for high-volume workloads
• Build for multi-cloud, on-premises, and air-gapped environments with security/compliance in mind
• Incorporate coding agents thoughtfully, ensuring quality as tooling evolves
• Collaborate across UiPath teams and with customers to iterate on the product
• Contribute to engineering culture through mentoring, code reviews, and hiring decisions

Key requirements

• 7+ years building and operating large-scale commercial services
• Strong programming ability with exposure to multiple languages (Python, Rust, C#)
• Real-world cloud experience (Azure, AWS or GCP) and Kubernetes deployment
• Experience with SQL and data storage/search trade-offs
• Experience with coding agents and evaluating their use in a changing ecosystem
• Foundational CS understanding and practical problem-solving approach
• Experience shipping LLM-backed products to production is a plus
• Familiarity with document processing (OCR, layout) is a plus
