Principal Engineer, Digital Agent (AI-Assisted Development)

We have an opportunity for a Principal Engineer to join our Data & AI team in North America, reporting to the VP of Data & AI. In this pivotal role, you will lead Infoblox's Digital Agent Initiative, focused on developing AI-assisted engineering and employee experiences-bringing together identity, knowledge, automation, and agentic AI to meaningfully improve how teams design, code, test, and support products and internal workflows. You will design and implement agentic architectures that integrate AI into the core of our engineering ecosystem-transforming how software is built, supported, and delivered.

This role bridges applied AI research and hands-on engineering. You'll work across Product, Engineering, Security, IT, and Business Solutions to build secure, scalable foundations and flagship experiences that raise productivity and satisfaction company-wide.

Be a Contributor - What You'll Do

Architect and lead the design and implementation of AI-assisted digital agents that augment engineering and business workflows.
Build and orchestrate multi-agent systems combining reasoning models, contextual memory, and automation to perform coding, testing, documentation, and support tasks.
Integrate digital agents with Infoblox's developer and enterprise ecosystems (e.g., CI/CD, ITSM, observability, and collaboration tools).
Collaborate across teams to ensure security, governance, and explainability of agentic systems.
Define success metrics for digital-agent impact-developer productivity, automation coverage, and employee satisfaction.
Lead architecture reviews, mentor senior engineers, and guide adoption of AI-assisted workflows across engineering and IT.
Stay current on emerging agentic frameworks, LLM orchestration technologies, and AI-driven workplace automation trends to inform roadmap decisions.

Be Prepared - What You Bring

15+ years of software-engineering experience, including 5+ years in architecture, platform, or applied-AI roles.
3+ years of experience with LLMs, Generative AI, or agentic frameworks (LangChain, AutoGen, MCP, ADK, A2A, etc.).
Knowledge of AI-assisted coding techniques, with hands-on experience using frameworks such as Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, or similar.
Strong background in system architecture, workflow automation, and scalable AI integration within enterprise ecosystems.
Experience with multi-agent orchestration, fine-tuning models, vector databases, or retrieval-augmented generation (RAG).
Advanced degree (MS/PhD) in Computer Science, AI, or a related field is preferred.

Be Successful - Your Path

First 90 Days: Immerse in our culture, connect with mentors (Blox Buddies), and map the systems and meet with key stakeholders that rely on your work. Discuss and create short/long term goals.

Six Months: Integrate early agentic systems into internal workflows; demonstrate measurable productivity improvements and user adoption.

One Year: Launch scalable digital-agent platforms across multiple functions; establish governance, feedback systems, and best practices for sustained innovation.

Belong- Your Community

Our culture thrives on inclusion, rewarding the bold ideas, curiosity, and creativity that move us forward. In a community where every voice counts, continuous learning is the norm. So, whether you code, create, sell, or care for customers, you'll grow and belong here.

Be Rewarded - Benefits That Help You Grow, Thrive, Belong

Comprehensive health coverage, generous PTO, and flexible work options
Learning opportunities, career-mobility programs, and leadership workshops
Sixteen paid volunteer hours each year, global employee resource groups, and a "No Jerks" policy that keeps collaboration healthy
Modern offices with EV charging, healthy snacks (and the occasional cupcake), plus hackathons, game nights, and culture celebrations
Charitable Giving Program supported by Company Match
We practice pay transparency and reward performance. Offers reflect role location, internal equity, experience, skills, education, and certifications. Base salary for this position in Tacoma: $195,000 - $300,000 plus annual bonus.
