Tanggungjawab

Principal Engineer | Permanent | Kuala Lumpur | Hybrid
Do you raise the technical bar for others as much as you enjoy solving complex problems? Our client - a fast-growing, technology-driven marketplace - is seeking a Principal Engineer to serve as the senior-most individual contributor across a multi-pod product stream in Kuala Lumpur.
Why Apply?
This is a high-impact, autonomous role at the intersection of architecture, delivery, and engineering culture. You'll own the hardest technical challenges across the full delivery lifecycle, mentor those around you, and shape the future direction of a growing product team.
The Role
Champion engineering excellence across a distributed, fast-paced product environment:
  • Provide technical leadership across the full delivery lifecycle, from early requirements through to production
  • Lead architecture and design reviews within enterprise, cloud, and security guidelines
  • Identify and resolve systemic risks in distributed, near-real-time systems
  • Define engineering standards and best practices for the product stream
  • Lead multi-pod initiatives through ambiguity and shifting requirements
  • Mentor Tech Leads and Staff Engineers, raising the bar across the team
  • Represent the stream in cross-functional technical discussions and support hiring
What We're Looking For
A technically credible, collaborative leader with:
  • 10+ years of software engineering experience, with strong TypeScript or web stack proficiency
  • Proven technical leadership across critical, business-facing systems and multiple teams
  • Deep knowledge of microservices and event-driven architecture - async messaging, idempotency, and dead-letter handling
  • Solid RDBMS and NoSQL data modelling, covering schema design and query performance
  • Strong API design skills, including REST and API gateway patterns
  • Observability experience using OpenTelemetry, with familiarity with Dynatrace, Grafana, or equivalent
  • Understanding of AuthN/AuthZ, least-privilege IAM, and secrets management
  • Azure experience is an advantage
  • Clear communicator across technical and non-technical audiences
Candidates already based in Malaysia, including those holding valid work authorisation, are welcome to apply.
Ready to operate at the highest level of engineering craft? Apply now.
