The Opportunity

We are seeking a Principal Software Engineer to serve as a technical authority for Ally’s API Core Engineering division. You will lead the design, development, and evolution of our API platform, frameworks, and tooling that power enterprise-scale services. You’ll partner closely with platform, security, SRE, and application teams to drive adoption, reliability, and developer productivity across the SDLC.

The Work Itself

  • Act as a technical authority across design, coding, testing, debugging, deployment, and support for the API platform and developer tooling.
  • Own the platform roadmap for API Core Engineering in partnership with product and platform leadership; drive architectural decisions and standards.
  • Design and implement applications, frameworks, CLIs, and libraries that improve developer productivity, reliability, and SDLC efficiency.
  • Build and maintain platform services and components in Node.js (TypeScript/JavaScript); contribute high-quality, testable, and observable code.
  • Develop comprehensive automated tests using Node.js testing frameworks (e.g., Jest, Mocha, Chai) and enforce testing best practices.
  • Design and enhance CI/CD pipelines, tooling, and templates using GitLab CI, Python, and shell scripting; champion release automation and quality gates.
  • Lead upgrades, operational support, and incident response for the API platform; drive root cause analysis and long-term resiliency improvements.
  • Architect and deliver solutions on public cloud (AWS preferred), leveraging Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) and modern DevOps practices.
  • Define and evolve standards for API and microservices (REST, security, observability, performance, documentation).
  • Partner with enterprise development teams to accelerate adoption of the API gateway and internal frameworks; provide guidance, patterns, and enablement.
  • Mentor engineers, perform design/PR reviews, and cultivate engineering excellence and platform thinking.

The Skills You Bring

Minimum Qualifications:

  • 7+ years of relevant experience
  • Bachelor’s Degree in relevant field(s) of study or equivalent

Preferred Qualifications

  • 7+ years of professional software engineering experience, with deep expertise in Node.js and TypeScript/JavaScript.
  • 2+ years in senior or principal roles preferred
  • Proficiency in Python and scripting (Bash/Zsh) for tooling, automation, and CI/CD integration.
  • Strong experience with automated testing in Node.js (Jest, Mocha, Chai or equivalent) and a quality-first mindset.
  • Hands-on experience building and operating services on public cloud (AWS strongly preferred).
  • Experience designing and developing APIs or microservices (REST), including versioning, authentication/authorization, and documentation.
  • Proven experience with DevOps toolchains: GitLab (CI/CD), Terraform (IaC), and Git-based workflows.
  • Strong understanding of software architecture, reliability, performance, and observability (logging, metrics, tracing).
  • Strategic thinker with hands-on problem-solving skills.
  • Experience with API Gateways (e.g., Kong, Apigee, AWS API Gateway, NGINX) including policies, plugins, and operational support.
  • Background working with or within Platform/Enablement teams; experience driving enterprise-wide tooling adoption.
  • AWS certifications and/or deep AWS service knowledge (ECS/EKS/Lambda, API Gateway, IAM, CloudWatch, CloudFormation/Terraform).
  • Familiarity with containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes), and secrets/config management.
  • Experience establishing coding standards, reusable templates, golden paths, and developer portals.
