Our solutions support license research, ordering, renewals, workflow, documentation, reporting, and ongoing compliance operations. Business License has impressive and consistent double-digit growth and an aggressive multi-year plan to continue to speed things up.\nWe are modernizing a mature product portfolio into a scalable, cloud-based ecosystem. Recent progress includes migration to Wolters Kluwer cloud infrastructure, conversion of a large Silverlight desktop application to Angular, improved release automation and resilience, and creation of the foundation for a License Intelligence Platform. The next phase focuses on platform simplification, service decoupling, enterprise performance, customer self-service, integrations, and AI-enabled workflows.\nAbout the Role\nAs Technical Lead, you will shape the technical direction of a multi-year transformation that is already producing measurable delivery, performance, and user-experience gains. You will own delivery for customer self-service, License Intelligence, workflow, reporting, integrations, and AI-enabled compliance experiences. You are a hands-on lead and trusted partner to Product and Engineering management. You enjoy solving modernization and scale challenges, not only reviewing designs. You will also mentor engineers and set standards for AI-assisted and agentic development.\nResponsibilities\nPartner with product and engineering management to define the technical strategy and roadmap. Translate business priorities and customer needs into clear technical priorities.\nOwn delivery from requirement clarification and design through implementation, testing, release, and post-release validation.\nCreate practical delivery plans covering architecture, milestones, sequencing, owners, dependencies, timelines, and success measures.\nManage competing priorities across workstreams by proposing options, sequencing work, and assigning ownership.\nLead architecture and design reviews. Document major decisions and balance tradeoffs across delivery, reliability, security, quality, maintainability, and cost.\nGuide the evolution from tightly coupled legacy applications toward modular business capabilities, modern APIs and services, and cloud-based operations.\nIdentify risks, blockers, and dependencies early. Communicate scope or timeline changes, recommend mitigations, and escalate when needed.\nRepresent the team in cross-team technical discussions and drive decisions and dependencies to resolution.\nOwn the technical and operational health of the team's applications and AI services. Monitor service health with New Relic and Datadog, and maintain prioritized plans for tech debt, reliability, and architecture improvements.\nEstablish team practices for planning, testing, release readiness, quality standards, incident follow-up, and continuous improvement.\nEvaluate and optimize AI tool use. Set validation standards and review processes for AI-generated code. Lead responsible-AI practices.\nDesign and optimize agentic workflows for team efficiency and product features.\nStay hands-on in .NET, Angular (v18+/NgRx), REST APIs, SQL Server, and Azure.\nMentor engineers through delegation and actionable feedback. Give management evidence-based input on growth and performance.\nParticipate in planned deployments, incident response, and urgent production fixes outside normal hours when needed.\nRequired Qualifications\n8+ years in software engineering with deep .NET and Angular expertise. 1+ year of agentic AI development.\nProven technical leadership: architecture, design reviews, roadmap planning, and cross-team delivery.\nStrong in REST API design, SQL Server, relational design, IIS and self-hosted deployments, Azure, Azure DevOps CI/CD, and GitHub.\nStrong testing discipline (NUnit, Jasmine, code coverage) and production support experience.\nAdvanced AI tool proficiency, including responsible-AI practices and AI output validation.\nExcellent communication, analytical, and problem-solving skills, plus strong ownership and accountability.\nAgile/Scrum experience.\nPreferred Qualifications\nPython proficiency (or similar scripting language) for AI/agent development.\nLLM architecture knowledge, including inference, context limits, and cost/latency tradeoffs.\nReAct, Chain-of-Thought, and structured-output prompting.\nAgentic RAG, vector databases, and embeddings.\nLangChain, AutoGen, CrewAI, and multi-agent orchestration.\nAgent ecosystem design: reasoning engines, memory, tool interfaces, and goal management.\nModel evaluation, hallucination mitigation, and safe action loops.\nTensorFlow/PyTorch and reinforcement learning concepts.\nLegacy modernization experience (for example Silverlight/Web Forms to Angular). OAuth/OIDC and Oracle are also welcome.\nOur Interview Practices\nTo maintain a fair and genuine hiring process, we kindly ask that all candidates participate in interviews without the assistance of AI tools or external prompts. Our interview process is designed to assess your individual skills, experiences, and communication style. We value authenticity and want to ensure we’re getting to know you-not a digital assistant.
