Principal Engineer
BengaluruFull-time15–27 yrsPosted 1 week ago
Leadership engineering role at Rubrik in Bengaluru. Needs 15+ years.
About the role
The Principal Engineer is a strategic, hands-on role at the same level as an Engineering Director. You will define and execute the technical strategy for Rubrik's AI software factory, the platform on which agents and people take an idea all the way to customer value. To get there, we are moving from an AI-assisted Software Development Lifecycle to an AI Product Development Lifecycle (AI-PDLC), which covers every stage, not just code.
What you'll do
- Define the technical vision for the AI-PDLC platform: orchestration, approval gates, model and tool gateways, agent runtimes, context, evals and cost visibility
- Make the platform usable by every function through clear contracts, paved paths and self-serve tooling
- Turn business opportunities and productivity gaps across Product, Design, Engineering, Support and go-to-market teams into multi-quarter roadmaps
- Technical leadership and standards
- Set the standards for trustworthy agentic workflows: a person approves every agent output, and no workflow skips its quality or security checkpoints
