Role SummaryTrimble is rebuilding engineering around AI. We are seeking a highly skilled Lead Software Engineer (P3) who is more than a traditional developer. In this role, you will lead by example, redesigning software development around agentic AI workflows, automation, and parallelized execution.
The ideal candidate is a force multiplier who treats AI as a primary collaborator. You are someone who uses their deep engineering fundamentals to stay hands-on in the code while simultaneously having interest in re-engineering the systems that ship it. You will be instrumental in the role by embedding AI into daily workflows to increase throughput and eliminate manual bottlenecks.
Key ResponsibilitiesInvolve in detailed design and implementation of sophisticated software components using OOAD principles and Microservices architecture. Ensure solutions are scalable, resilient, and follow SOLID principles.
Follow an AI-native development workflow (using tools like Cursor) to be used by the team to reduce cycle time and increase feature throughput.
Build automation playbooks for test generation and review processes to help peer functions like QA eliminate bottlenecks.
Leverage AI to minimize learning curves and build on any language or framework as per the team’s demand, maintaining high-quality output across the stack.
Open to try out and build Proof of Concepts (POCs) for internal AI agents to handle repetitive tasks, troubleshooting, and code scaffolding.
Act as a "Player-Coach" to help developers and QA engineers adopt AI practices, clearing technical hurdles and navigating ambiguity in a fast-paced environment.
6–8 years of professional software engineering experience with a proven track record of delivering enterprise-scale cloud services.
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science Engineering or a related technical field.
Expert-level knowledge in at least one major programming language (C#, Java, or Python).
Demonstrated interest or experience in using LLM copilots to accelerate development and a willingness to build in any language required by the roadmap.
Experience with distributed systems, RESTful APIs, and Microservices architecture.
Practical experience with at least one NoSQL database (e.g., MongoDB, Cassandra, DynamoDB).
Hands-on experience with any one of major cloud platforms (AWS, Azure or google)
