Our commitment to respect, transparency, and simplicity means you can trust us to always choose to do the right thing.

As a trusted partner for purpose-built AI and intelligent automation, we solve highly complex problems for our enterprise customers and put their information to work to transform the way they do business. Over 10,000 customers trust ABBYY, including many Fortune 500 ones. You will work on further developing a portfolio already containing client names such as DHL, Johnson & Johnson, FDA, DMV, PwC, KeyBank, Spotify, and H&R BLOCK.

ABBYY Vantage is our flagship Document AI platform – a cloud-native, microservices-based product that combines purpose-built AI, OCR, NLP, and direct LLM integration to help enterprise customers extract, classify, and act on data from any document. Vantage 3.0, our latest release, introduces native Azure OpenAI integration, enterprise-grade compliance and redaction, a real-time analytics dashboard, and a growing library of pre-configured AI skills. Over 10,000 customers trust ABBYY – including Fortune 500 companies like DHL, Johnson & Johnson, FDA, PwC, KeyBank, Spotify, and H&R Block – to automate their most complex document workflows.

We are looking for a Staff Software Engineer to serve as a senior technical leader on the Vantage platform. You will drive the design and delivery of complex, cross-cutting capabilities – spanning document AI pipelines, LLM integrations, compliance infrastructure, analytics, and platform extensibility. Beyond your own code, you will act as a technical multiplier: influencing architectural decisions, setting quality standards, and developing the engineers around you. This is a role for someone who leads through depth, judgment, and impact.

Responsibilities:

• Technical Leadership: Drive the technical design and delivery of significant Vantage platform capabilities, from architecture and API contracts through deployment, monitoring, and iteration.
• Quality & Standards: Define and uphold engineering standards for the Vantage codebase – covering code quality, service reliability, performance, security, and compliance – and drive their adoption across teams.
• Strategic Collaboration: Act as a senior technical voice in cross-functional planning with product management, ML engineering, cloud architecture, and engineering leadership; translate business priorities into actionable technical roadmaps.
• Platform Improvement: Lead initiatives to improve Vantage platform health at scale: service decomposition, observability, CI/CD maturity, and developer productivity.
• Operational Excellence: Own high-severity incident response for Vantage cloud services; drive post-mortems and systemic reliability improvements.
• Engineering Mentorship: Mentor Senior and Principal Engineers on the Vantage team; build a culture of technical rigor, shared ownership, and continuous learning.
• Technical Innovation: Evaluate and champion adoption of new technologies – from GenAI model integrations to cloud-native tooling – that strengthen ABBYY's Document AI differentiation.

Required Qualifications:

• 10–13 years of professional software engineering experience with deep expertise in C# and .NET, and C++
• Proven experience designing and operating large-scale cloud services on Microsoft Azure (AKS, Azure OpenAI, Azure Service Bus, or equivalent)
• Strong command of microservices architecture, distributed system design, and cloud-native patterns at enterprise scale
• Demonstrated ability to mentor Senior and Junior Engineers and partner with Engineering Managers on technical direction
• Experience leading technical design reviews and influencing architectural decisions across team and product boundaries
• Track record of delivering production-grade systems that meet enterprise compliance, security, and reliability standards

Desired Qualifications:

• Experience building or integrating AI/ML pipelines, LLM-based extraction or enrichment services, or document intelligence capabilities in production
• Familiarity with compliance-driven engineering practices in regulated industries (Financial Services, Healthcare, Government)
• Track record of measurably improving engineering velocity, system uptime, or COGS in a PE-backed or high-growth SaaS environment
• Experience with BYOM (Bring Your Own Model) patterns, model serving infrastructure, or GenAI prompt engineering at scale
• Comfort operating across a globally distributed engineering organization spanning multiple regions and cultures

Here are some of our local benefits:

• Partial compensation for glasses and lenses
