Principal Software Engineer

NIC MAP is looking for a Principal Software Engineer to join our engineering team. You will design, build, and maintain the software that powers our cloud-based SaaS platform, writing production code, shaping architecture, and keeping things reliable and scalable.

We're a small, flat team where titles matter far less than what you ship. You'll own real problems end-to-end and figure out the best path forward, whether that means diving into unfamiliar code, spinning up an AI agent, or pulling in a teammate for a quick design session.

We expect AI-forward engineering as a baseline. If you're already using Claude Code or Cursor as a natural part of how you write, debug, and ship, you'll fit here.

• Design, develop, and maintain full stack applications using C#, .NET 8+, MSSQL, and PostgreSQL. Front-end work spans Angular, React, Next.js, Vite, Tailwind, and shadcn/ui. Python for data engineering. We pick the right tool for the problem.
• Use AI tooling daily (Claude Code, Cursor, AI agents, MCP connectors) to ship faster and eliminate toil.
• Architect and deliver solutions across the full stack, owning features from concept through production.
• Manage production workloads in Azure, including Azure Container Apps (ACA), monitoring, and operational support.
• Debug, troubleshoot, and resolve complex technical issues and production incidents.
• Work directly with anyone on the team (engineers, product, leadership) to plan, estimate, and deliver.

• Experience building AI-powered features in production (prompt engineering, RAG, embeddings, document indexing).
• GitHub Actions, infrastructure-as-code, or container orchestration in Azure.
• Cosmos DB, Service Bus, or other Azure PaaS services.
• SaaS product development with multi-tenant architectures.
• Healthcare data standards (HL7, FHIR) or data-intensive platforms.
• Significant professional experience in software engineering. We care about what you can do. The problems here require senior-level judgment and depth.
• Production SaaS experience required. CS degree or equivalent.

• Mission-driven work: your contributions will directly support better housing and care for seniors.
• Fully remote: work from home; no mandatory time in the office!
• Collaborative team: join a supportive environment where your ideas and skills make a real impact.
• Low travel requirements: at most 1–2 trips per year.
• Inclusive culture: NIC MAP is proud to be an equal opportunity employer.

If you’re excited about building meaningful technology and want to grow with a team that values innovation, collaboration, and impact, we encourage you to apply.
