Life Line Screening
Principal Software Engineer
About the Role
Life Line Screening is seeking a confident and visionary Principal Engineer – Application & Cloud Architecture to shape the future of technology at Life Line Screening. This role is ideal for a full-stack engineer with deep experience architecting cloud-first solutions in AWS, a passion for solving customer pain points, and a drive to build scalable, modern applications. You’ll lead the transformation of our core platform, guiding multiple engineering teams as they build and maintain the applications that power Life Line Screening’s digital experiences—from customer interactions to clinical and operational systems. You’ll present strategic recommendations to executive leadership and ensure our platform is built for scale, security, and innovation.
We’re looking for someone with conviction—clear technical vision, confident decision-making, and the ability to inspire teams toward bold, forward-thinking solutions. You thrive in ambiguity, take initiative, and bring creative solutions to complex challenges. You’re resourceful, collaborative, energized by change and thrive in a culture built on agility, experimentation, and big ideas.
At Life Line Screening, we’re more than a technology company—we’re a mission-driven organization making a measurable impact on public health.
