About this role

**ZoomInfo is where careers accelerate.** We move fast, think boldly, and empower you to do the best work of your life. We’re looking for a **Principal Software Engineer** to serve as a senior technical force multiplier across three pillars of our Platform Engineering organization: **Integrations**, **Workflows & Orchestration**, and **Data Management**. These teams own the connectors, orchestration, and data quality capabilities that push ZoomInfo’s data product into the systems our customers run every day. This is a **hands-on, high-impact individual contributor** role. You’ll embed with whichever team needs the most help at a given time—whether that’s a major initiative, stubborn tech debt, a reliability problem, or an opportunity to grow into new territory. You’ll lead through influence, set technical direction, raise the engineering bar, and partner with Managers, engineers, and Product to turn ambiguity into well-architected, shipped solutions. --- ### The Three Pillars You’ll Support - **Integrations:** Native connectors and APIs linking ZoomInfo to CRM, marketing automation, sales engagement, data warehouse, and BI platforms (e.g., Salesforce, HubSpot, Marketo, Outreach, Snowflake), processing millions of records daily. - **Workflows & Orchestration:** The engine behind lead-to-account matching and multi-step, event-driven business processes triggered by buying signals and business rules. - **Data Management:** Deduplication, standardization, enrichment, continuous verification, and **GDPR/CCPA** compliance to keep customer data clean, current, and trustworthy. --- ### What You’ll Do - Embed with **Integrations**, **Workflows & Orchestration**, and **Data Management** teams on a rotating basis—writing production-quality code and unblocking the hardest technical problems. - Define and evolve scalable, fault-tolerant, event-driven architecture using **Java/Spring Boot**, **Node.js/NestJS**, **Kafka**, and workflow orchestration platforms such as **Temporal** or **Google Cloud Workflows**. - Lead response and root-cause analysis for high-severity incidents and systemic reliability issues. - Drive platform modernization by consolidating integration patterns, re-architecting legacy systems, and improving observability. - Establish best practices for **idempotency**, **retries**, **error handling**, **state management**, **API/webhook versioning**, and **workflow design**. - Shape multi-quarter roadmaps with the Senior Director, Engineering Managers, and Product—bringing technical feasibility, sizing, and risk into prioritization. - Lead build-vs-buy evaluations and author architecture decision records and design docs that guide teams over multiple quarters. - Mentor engineers at all levels and serve as a senior interviewer to raise the hiring bar. --- ### What You Bring **Must-Have** - **12+ years** of software engineering experience, including significant time in senior or staff-level roles, with a track record of technical leadership across multiple teams. - Deep experience designing and operating **backend distributed systems at scale**, with strong proficiency in **Java (Spring Boot)** and/or **Node.js (NestJS)**. - Experience building or owning **integrations/connectors** with CRM, marketing automation, sales engagement, or data warehouse platforms (e.g., Salesforce, HubSpot, Marketo, Snowflake, or similar). - Demonstrated ability to **influence without authority** by aligning teams, driving decisions, and earning trust
