About The Position

JOB TITLE: Principal System Engineer JOB LOCATION: 211 S Akard St. Dallas, TX 75202 DUTIES: Responsible for translating the core architecture for business requirements into the final technical solution (platform, network, software, cloud, etc.) through functional, performance, and reliability analysis using engineering models and techniques, primarily through software development throughout the vertical stack. Define designs. Provide technical enablement for application components and subsystems for an Application(s). Drive important design decisions for development team. Elaborate the design and interfaces for specific components including defining subsystems and their interfaces, allocating responsibilities to subsystems, understanding solution deployment, and communicating requirements for interactions with solution context. Align development teams to a shared technical direction and partner with those teams in elaborating the Solution and its interfaces. Validate technology assumptions and evaluate implementation alternatives. Establish critical NFRs at the solution level and participate in the definition of others. Create and enable the Continuous Delivery Pipeline including participating in planning, definition, and high-level design of the system solution and exploring alternatives. Develop the Architectural Runway in support of new business Features and Capabilities.
