Principal Full-Stack Developer – Full Time -IST Location: Hyderabad
Job Type: Full TimeAbout the RoleWe are seeking a Principal Full-Stack Developer to lead the design and development of scalable, secure, and cloud-native software solutions.The primary focus of this role is full-stack software development and architecture, with strong hands-on experience across backend and frontend technologies. The ideal candidate will also have practical knowledge of cloud infrastructure and database services (Azure, AWS, or OCI) and modern software delivery practices.DevOps is a secondary responsibility. The candidate should understand how CI/CD pipelines, how to build automation, deployments, monitoring, and release processes work, but this is not primarily an infrastructure administration role.Key Responsibilities- Lead the architecture and development of full-stack applications.
- Design scalable backend services, APIs, microservices, and distributed systems. Programming languages used may vary, though typically it is C#, Java, Python, or Node.
- Build responsive and maintainable frontend applications. Technologies may vary, but React and Angular are commonly used by our clients as well as frameworks like Twitter Bootstrap, Material Design, or Tailwind.
- Experience using AI Coding agents effectively is a plus, though we can also train you on the job to use these tools effectively (configuring AGENTS.md, skills, plan versus build modes, etc)
- Make architectural decisions covering performance, security, scalability, and maintainability.
- Develop and integrate applications using Azure, OCI, or AWS services.
- Design database schemas and data-access strategies using SQL and NoSQL databases.
- Review code and establish engineering standards across projects.
- Guide teams in software architecture, design patterns, testing, and delivery practices.
- Collaborate with product, engineering, cloud, security, and operations teams. Strong communication skills and ability to learn a customer’s business domain is a must.
- Troubleshoot complex application, integration, performance, and production issues.
- Contribute to CI/CD pipeline design and deployment automation. Technologies can include simple bash scripting, kubernetes/containerization, Ansible, or terraform, though we do not expect you to be an expert in all of these.
- Understand and improve build, release, rollback, and environment-promotion processes.
- Support observability through logging, monitoring, alerting, and application diagnostics.
- Mentor senior and junior engineers.
- Adapt quickly across different client domains, technology stacks, and project requirements.
Required Skills and Experience- 9 + years of professional experience in software development, architecture, or related engineering roles.

- Understanding of cloud services such as compute, storage, databases, messaging, serverless, identity, networking, and monitoring.
- Strong knowledge of software architecture principles, design patterns, clean code, and testing.
- Experience with Git-based development workflows and code reviews.
- Understanding of CI/CD concepts, including:
- Build and release pipelines
- Automated testing
- Artifact management
- Environment-specific configuration
- Deployment approvals
