TXI is looking for a Principal Software Engineer who can see both the forest and the trees.


Building the right thing is often harder than building it right. More than 80% of digital innovations fail because they are not solving the real user need. We take a pragmatic approach to innovation by deploying integrated teams to uncover insights from users and turn them into compelling digital solutions. As a boutique strategy and product innovation firm, our capabilities include product discovery, delivery, and adoption. 


As a Principal Software Engineer, you will serve as a trusted advisor to clients and internal teams, helping shape and refine our approach to consulting at TXI through mentorship and support. Your ability to navigate between strategic vision and tactical execution will be key to your success in this role. You are an empathetic listener, an effective communicator, and a thoughtful problem-solver who is capable of inspiring teams and delivering outstanding results.

\n


Here’s what we expect from you
  • You are a highly competent engineer who can lead multiple teams on significant accounts, with other team leaders executing specific lines of work under your guidance
  • Are a technical leader and able to efficiently execute code on projects, while also providing technical guidance to your team members
  • Can play a strategic role in shaping the organization, influencing technical direction, and driving major projects to success while positioning TXI at the forefront of industry advancements
  • Understand the client's business, build relationships with our clients, and guide strategic decisions to make them successful
  • Communicate professionally and empathetically, solicit and provide feedback, actively offer help, and make sure everyone is aligned
  • Partner with TXI’s Demand team to internalize prospective client needs, goals, and constraints; scoping complex product engagements based on business and user value
  • Serve as an experienced consultant; adeptly building lasting, influential relationships with executive-level clients that grow and expand over time.
  • Take responsibility (even when no one asks)
  • Learn from everyone, no matter what their title is


Our Tech Stack
  • Back-end: we primarily create applications in Python and Node, although we have a small number of applications with other setups: Elixir and Phoenix, and Ruby on Rails
  • Front-end: For Javascript, we generally use React, although we have some apps that use Vue.js.
  • Mobile: We support native iOS development in both Objective-C and Swift. These days, however, almost all of our apps are being built in React Native
  • Infrastructure: nearly all of our infrastructure is on AWS or GCP and managed by Terraform utilizing Docker containers in Kubernetes
  • Don't hesitate to apply if you don't have specific experience with our tech stack. We have a preference for folks with Python, Node.js or React experience, but if you’re a strong developer with experience in related tools, we want to hear from you!

Some reasons why you might like working with us


We have been recognized for both our internal employee experience and for delivering a trusted customer experience. At TXI, we are intentional about the way we work and how we support both our team and our clients. 


1. We focus on Product Innovation by helping to envision initial new product concepts for our clients. We are core contributors to shaping the work that we do and the problems we're working to solve. In addition to that ideation stage, we get to help them bring these new concepts to market. We help both to build the right thing (design thinking and product discovery) and build the thing right (agile mindset and iterative approach).


2. We care about DEIB (diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging). To deliver the best solutions, we need as many bright and diverse minds in the room as possible, and we need to be able to learn from them once they’re there. That’s why we’re working to create an environment that’s inclusive for everyone. Learn more about our DEIB learnings, roadmap, and history.  


3. We work in a variety of industries and encourage our team members to explore new domains, solve different kinds of problems, and adopt new technologies. There is no getting bored in our portfolio. You’ll work across life science, healthcare, EdTech, manufacturing, and nonprofits–just to name a few–and build web, mobile, and IoT solutions. 


4. We work in integrated teams (and occasionally we will work as staff augmentation if there's a good rationale for it). At TXI, we seek to bring all of the good ideas to the table so you learn from the talented teammates you regularly pair with. Product, design, and engineering regularly collaborate.


5. We are intentional about supporting each individual's growth. "Challenge and support each other" is a core value of the company and we take that mission seriously. That's why every employee has a personal learning & development budget and a bi-weekly conversation with their manager about their progress–as well as why we created career grids to equitably promote each person's path at TXI. 


6. We believe that wellness and a sustainable pace deliver the best outcomes. We commit to being dedicated partners to our clients for a sustainable 35 hours per week. We don't require regular travel or client on-site time, though there will be occasional in-person client meetings to move work forward. Our team members enjoy flexible schedules with a remote-first working environment and discretionary time off because we respect that everyone has a life outside of work. 


7. We value transparency and open discussion. You will have a front-line view of the company's performance, risks and issues, finances, and budgets. With unique tools and facilitation techniques, we also regularly connect with each other and discuss topics as a company to guide our path forward. 


8. We build products that matter. We advance the causes and goals of our partners and consistently deliver outcomes for them. See some examples below.



What We Make


For over two decades, we've partnered with clients across industries to research, design, and develop custom web and mobile applications that make a meaningful impact. Some examples of that impact include: 


<> Empowering nonprofits with real-time insight into progress and potential for donor impact through transformative fundraising software 


<> Designing a digital experience that is driven by evidence-based treatment and therapy plans to support LGBTQ+ youths who face societal and personal biases due to their orientation  


<> Driving accountability and motivation for patients recovering from spinal surgery through an integrated mobile app and a wearable device on the patient’s lower back

<> Creating a new mobile app to inspire employees to love where they work by delivering meaningful savings and recognition in their workplace, while also amplifying merchant partner reach across the U.S.


But the work is just one part of what makes TXI a rewarding place to be. We support each others’ interests—whether it’s volunteering, organizing meetups, speaking at industry events, or learning new techniques and technologies. If there's something you're passionate about, we want you to pursue it and teach it to the rest of us. Our company Brunch & Learns and regular practice meetings are just some of the ways we create space for sharing, learning, and professional development.
