Principal Software Engineer, Site Reliability

Software Engineer • Principal • On-site • Full-time Romania Bucharest, Romania

UiPath's Site Reliability team builds the platforms and systems the entire company relies on to deliver its compliance and SLA promises, and is looking for an engineer who not only identifies reliability gaps but designs, builds and ships the systems that close them.

Responsibilities

  • Design, engineer and build SRE platform systems and capabilities with cutting-edge AI, treating them as products other engineering teams depend on in their critical path
  • Participate in livesite monitoring rotations, handle escalations, and drive effective mitigations, reducing customer impact through detailed post-mortems
  • Drive availability, scalability and performance improvements based on livesite learnings
  • Generate or codify best practices and ensure they are followed widely — not by publishing guidance, but by embedding them into the systems built
  • Ensure technical deliverables meet or exceed expectations on reliability, scalability, quality and performance
  • Identify and drive architectural changes that significantly move the needle on these dimensions
  • Onboard other teams onto platforms by driving outcomes yourself — writing integrations, pairing with their engineers, removing friction
  • Ship early, seek feedback relentlessly and iterate fast, treating every user complaint as a design input
  • Drive task planning, estimation, scheduling and staffing
  • Mentor Software Engineers through hands-on coaching, advice and training opportunities
  • Participate in and influence process improvements and best practices across the engineering organization

Requirements

  • Proven track record (10+ years) of architecting and engineering world-class, large-scale, distributed commercial applications and services, and ensuring customer success
  • Experience building large-scale, complex internal platforms adopted by 10+ teams in their critical path at a large company — systems that have stood the test of time, not abandoned prototypes
  • Demonstrated ability to drive adoption of systems by doing the hard work yourself: writing integrations, removing friction for other teams, and measuring success by outcomes delivered
