Principal Software Engineer – Dynamic Experiences Platform (Full-Stack)

Principal Software Engineer – Dynamic Experiences Platform (Full-Stack) Category Software Engineering Location Mountain View, California Job ID 13092 Company Overview Intuit is the global financial technology platform that powers prosperity for the people and communities we serve. With approximately 100 million customers worldwide using products such as TurboTax, Credit Karma, QuickBooks, and Mailchimp, we believe that everyone should have the opportunity to prosper. We never stop working to find new, innovative ways to make that possible. Job Overview We are looking for a Principal Software Engineer to lead the design and implementation of a Server-Driven UI (SDUI) platform that powers cross-platform user experiences across mobile and web. This role spans front-end, back-end, and infrastructure, with a particular focus on developer ergonomics, scale, and performance. You’ll also help define a DSL that allows teams to declaratively build UI and interactions, and build the systems that interpret and deliver those experiences in real-time. This is a high-impact, cross-cutting technical role — ideal for an engineer who enjoys shaping system architecture, building reusable primitives, and mentoring engineers across domains. Responsibilities Design and implement the core SDUI platform, including schema evolution, layout/interaction models, and runtime execution. Own and evolve a custom DSL that declaratively defines UI components and their behavior. Build robust, scalable backends (typically BFFs) that drive dynamic UI delivery across platforms. Collaborate with mobile, web, and backend teams to deliver cohesive developer and user experiences. Lead architectural decisions around full-stack delivery — including caching, versioning, fallbacks, and progressive rendering. Set technical direction and establish best practices for system reliability, testing, observability, and developer ergonomics. Partner with product and platform teams to prioritize foundational capabilities and longer-term scalability. Pay offered is based on factors such as job-related knowledge, skills, experience, and work location. To drive ongoing fair pay for employees, Intuit conducts regular comparisons across categories of ethnicity and gender. Qualifications 10+ years of professional experience in software engineering, including full-stack or platform roles. Proven expertise in building scalable backends (e.g., BFFs, GraphQL/REST APIs, caching layers). Deep experience with at least one major frontend technology (e.g., React, React Native, SwiftUI, Jetpack Compose). Strong systems thinking and architecture skills — able to break down complex UX/backend interactions into reusable, extensible building blocks. Familiarity with Server-Driven UI paradigms and cross-platform delivery models. Solid understanding of DSL design and implementation, including parsing and schema validation. Strong programming language fundamentals (e.g., ASTs, interpreters, compilers, metaprogramming). Track record of leading initiatives with broad technical scope and multiple stakeholders. Strong AI fundamentals and familiarity with working on AI technologies Preferred Qualifications: Experience designing or working with custom DSLs, markup languages, or declarative UI systems. Exposure to schema evolution, compatibility guarantees, and platform versioning strategies. Hands-on experience with mobile frameworks (iOS/Android) and how SDUI maps to native rendering. Contributions to open-source UI frameworks or backend platforms. Experience building tools or frameworks that improve developer velocity and experience. Why Join Us You'll be at the forefront of transforming how UI is built, delivered, and evolved at scale. Opportunity to work across the stack and influence system design from the ground up. Join a team that values clean architecture, developer experience, and product velocity. Intuit provides a competitive compensation package with a strong pay for performance rewards approach.
