Posted Friday, February 27, 2026 at 9:00 AM

Job Title: Principal Software Engineer Location: Denver, CO (Hybrid)

Accuris was formed in May 2023 through the combination of S&P Engineering Solutions (formerly part of IHS Markit) and Techstreet, bringing together over six decades of leadership in engineering standards, technical content, and workflow technology. Accuris transforms the world’s largest repository of standards and supply chain data into AI-driven insights and connected workflows - enabling engineers to work smarter, stay compliant, and innovate faster.

We’re hiring a Principal Software Engineer to serve as the hands‑on technical lead for a new cross‑functional pod (engineering, product, UX, architecture, and developer enablement). You’ll set technical direction, own key architectural decisions, and mentor senior/staff engineers while shipping high‑impact features for global customers. This is a broad, product‑focused role spanning services, APIs, data, and UI—ideal for a systems thinker who enjoys building durable platforms and customer‑visible value.

You won’t manage people; you’ll lead through architecture, code, influence, and outcomes.

• Deliver the pod’s v1/v2 services with measurable SLOs and robust dashboards
• Cut lead time and incident rates through standards, tooling, and runbooks
• Establish reusable libraries/templates that speed up other pods
• Mentor engineers to raise design quality and operational excellence

• Own the pod’s technical strategy: clarify domain boundaries, define target architecture, and evolve systems using DDD.
• Design & build cloud‑native microservices in .NET Core on Kubernetes (AWS), with clean contracts and strong observability.
• Ship end‑to‑end features across API, data, and front end (React/Angular) with a focus on performance, accessibility, and UX quality.
• Raise the bar on operability: SLOs, dashboards, alerting, runbooks; drive reliability, scalability, and cost efficiency.
• Champion CI/CD and quality: automated tests (unit/integration/e2e), progressive delivery (blue/green, canary), IaC.
• Mentor & multiply: coach senior/staff engineers, run design reviews, steward coding standards and “golden paths.”
• Partner cross‑functionally with Product/UX/SRE/Security and adjacent pods to deliver cohesive solutions and clear SLAs.
• Make trade‑offs explicit: communicate risks, options, and impact to technical and executive audiences.

Front end: React or Angular, Type Script, HTML, CSS (Tailwind/Bootstrap)

8+ years in software engineering with increasing scope; 3+ years leading delivery/architecture in agile product teams.

Proven experience building microservices at scale in .NET Core on a major cloud (AWS preferred).

Strong systems thinking: domain modeling, API design, data consistency, performance, resilience, and security basics (OWASP).

Track record improving CI/CD, test automation, and operability (SLOs, on‑call readiness, incident reduction).

Excellent communication and mentoring skills; ability to align diverse stakeholders and elevate engineering standards.

Event‑driven architectures with Kafka; idempotency/outbox patterns.

Observability at scale (Open Telemetry) and cost/performance optimization.

Experience with search platforms (Elasticsearch/Open Search) or analytics pipelines.

The anticipated salary range for this position is $145,000 to $170,000. Final base salary for this role will be based on the individual’s geographical location as well as experience and qualifications for the role. In addition to base compensation, this role is eligible for an annual incentive plan as well as comprehensive benefits. For more information on benefits, please reach out to the recruiter assigned to the role.
