Lead requirements analysis, design full-stack systems with agentic AI, develop cloud-native services, mentor teams, and integrate AI-driven components.
About Saviynt & This Role
Saviynt’s Enterprise Identity Cloud empowers organizations to transform digitally while maintaining top-tier security and compliance. We’re seeking a highly experienced Principal Engineer to elevate our platform with agentic AI capabilities—smart systems that think, adapt, and act beyond traditional interfaces.
Join a collaborative, global R&D team dedicated to building the future of identity intelligence—ones that reason, anticipate, and deliver outcomes autonomously while ensuring transparency, controllability, and enterprise-grade reliability.
What You’ll Be Doing
Lead requirements analysis, software architecture, and design for full-stack systems infused with agentic AI components.
Develop scalable, secure cloud-native (AWS/Azure/GCP) services combining REST/microservices, modern frontend frameworks, and AI-driven decision logic.
Implement autonomous modules capable of planning, proactive actuation, and continuous learning.
Integrate explainability, feedback loops, and safe-guard mechanisms into agentic behaviors.
Drive best practices in coding standards, code reviews, automated testing, CI/CD, and DevOps workflows.
Mentor and lead engineers in building trustworthy, agentic systems while championing Agile/Scrum methodologies.
Collaborate cross-functionally to align AI behaviors with security, privacy, UX, and compliance goals.
Document development lifecycle, maintain existing services, and originate new agentic capabilities.
What You Bring
12+ years in software engineering including backend: Java/Spring or Node.js, REST, microservices, and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes)
Frontend experience: React, TypeScript, CSS, UI component libraries, accessibility, and emerging micro-frontend architecture (preferred)
Cloud platforms experience (AWS, Azure, or GCP), DevOps, observability, CI/CD pipelines.
Prior involvement with AI/ML systems, ideally including autonomous or agentic behavior design, prompt engineering, reinforcement learning, or rule-based reasoning systems.
Comfortable balancing reactive and proactive systems and integrating human-in-the-loop control and transparency.
Leadership & Domain Knowledge
Proven record leading engineering teams—planning, mentoring, delivering complex enterprise solutions.
Excellent communication and consensus-building skills; able to explain sophisticated AI behavior clearly.
Proactive, customer-centric mindset: able to ask “what could this agent do next?” rather than simply “what did the user ask?”
Familiarity with Identity Governance & Administration (IGA), Privileged Access Management (PAM), or Connector frameworks is a strong plus
Soft Skills & Qualifications
Adaptability in fast-paced, changing environments.
Keen attention to ethical and responsible AI practices, especially around autonomy and security.
Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in CS, Engineering, or equivalent experience.
Why Saviynt & This Role Matters
You’ll be at the forefront of AI-first enterprise security, pioneering systems that transcend reactive automation—think proactive identity defense, self-adjusting access controls, and autonomous compliance workflows.
Impactful innovation: play a defining role in shaping AI-driven identity platforms.
Technical leadership: blend architecture, full-stack development, and agentic AI.
Growth environment: join a high-growth, platform-led company delivering real value to enterprise customers.
Inclusive culture: collaborative, supportive, and mission driven.
