Principle Principal Software Engineer
Location: Norwalk, CT
Salary - $170.000 - $190,000 +Bonus
Right now, we're looking for a Senior Principal Software Engineer to take a leading role in architecting and delivering the software that powers our next generation of machine control systems. This is a hands-on, senior-level position where you'll have real ownership, technical influence, and direct impact on the business.
Why This Role Stands Out:
High Visibility: You won't be buried in code no one sees - this role is front and center across engineering, product, and executive teams.
Complex, Real-World Problems: This isn't app development. You'll be building control software for high-speed, precision-driven systems that integrate mechanical, electrical, and software components.
Stability + Innovation: Join a company that's been around for decades - but continues to evolve. The tech is serious, the teams are strong, and the roadmaps are ambitious.
Long-Term Career Growth: This isn't a stepping-stone job. It's a long-term opportunity to lead, grow, and shape the future of how our machines perform.
What You'll Do:
Design and develop real-time control software in C++ for large-scale, high-performance electromechanical systems
Lead cross-functional efforts across software, hardware, systems, and manufacturing
Guide architecture and technical strategy for multiple products and platforms
Debug and optimize at the system level - from code to motion control to hardware integration
Play a key role in roadmap planning and technical decision-making
What You Bring:
10+ years of experience in object-oriented software design and full-lifecycle development
Deep hands-on experience in C++ and real-time operating systems (such as RTX)
Strong background in mechatronics, machine control, or similar system-level environments
Ability to lead multidisciplinary teams and drive projects through ambiguity to delivery
Excellent communication skills - both with engineers and stakeholders
BS or MS in Computer Science or a related field
Bonus Points:
Experience with motion or servo motor control
Exposure to .NET, Java, or
Background in SQL Server, Oracle, or web-based service architecture
Knowledge of industrial automation or paper-handling/mailing systems
