Position Summary

Operating directly within our global Product & Technology organisation, this role functions as an internal Forward Deployed Software Engineer. We are looking for an adaptable, highly autonomous senior engineer to tackle rapid prototyping, architectural de-risking, and tactical engineering initiatives.

Responsibilities

• Full-Spectrum Problem Solving: Fluidly navigate across varied technical domains depending on the project. One month you may be addressing deep performance profiling and cloud reliability; the next, you may be building modern front-end spikes or evaluating microservice patterns.


• De-Risk Architecture: Architect, code, and benchmark functional proof-of-concepts (PoCs) to validate performance and evaluate emerging technologies before Bentley makes a company-wide commitment.


• Operate Across the Stack & Cloud: Leverage a wide range of technologies, acting as a polyglot across multiple programming languages and major cloud platforms to deliver the right solution for the business.


• Ensure Frictionless Hand-offs: Package your validated architectures, write the technical summary, and hand the clean, maintainable deliverables over to our global P&T teams so you can pivot to the next strategic unknown.

Qualifications

• 0-to-1 Experience: 7+ years of software engineering experience with a demonstrable track record of designing, building, and delivering complex, high-performance software in fast-paced environments.


• Ownership and Bias for Action: You are highly self-directed, comfortable operating autonomously without extensive supervision, and driven to turn ambiguity into actionable solutions.


• Curiosity and Learning Agility: You possess an aptitude to select the best tool for the specific problem at hand. You have working fluency across multiple programming languages (such as C#, TypeScript, Python, Java, or C++) and continuously learn new ones.


• Empathy and Partnership: You view the global P&T organization as your customer, maintaining strong relationships and ensuring your prototypes are built with their eventual operational needs in mind.


• AI-Amplified Output: Practical experience leveraging generative AI APIs, vector retrieval/RAG patterns, or daily integration of AI‑assisted engineering tools to amplify output.


• High‑Signal Communication: Ability to synthesize complex technical discoveries, trade‑offs, and architectural recommendations into direct, high‑signal summaries for technical leadership.


• Big Picture Architecture: Solid foundational knowledge of distributed systems, multi‑tenant patterns, containerized deployments (Docker, Kubernetes), and at least one major cloud platform (Azure, AWS, or GCP).

This is a Hybrid role.
