About the role

UiPath is hiring a Senior Software Engineer to build and operate the Intelligent Document Processing platform, focusing on ingestion, extraction, indexing, retrieval, evaluation, and production-ready delivery of LLM-backed document processing at enterprise scale.

Responsibilities

  • Work with engineers, product managers and customers to design, build and operate the AI systems behind UiPath's document processing products.
  • Build across the pipeline: ingestion, parsing and extraction, indexing and retrieval, and the evaluation that tells us any of it is working.
  • Take features from idea to production and stay with them, measuring whether they actually worked, and improving them when they didn't.
  • Solve genuinely hard problems in concurrency, latency and distributed systems, so the platform holds up under high-volume production workloads.
  • Build for environments we don't control: multi-cloud, on-premises, air-gapped, and under strict security and compliance requirements.
  • Use coding agents as a serious part of your toolkit, and help the team get better at it. Where to trust them, where not to, and how to keep quality high as the tooling changes underneath us.
  • Work with teams across UiPath and across locations to innovate and build best-in-class document processing, and occasionally with customers directly.
  • Contribute to our engineering culture: mentor, review, hire, and push back when something isn't good enough.

Qualifications

  • A solid track record (5+ years) building and operating large-scale commercial services that real customers depend on.
  • Strong programming ability and the confidence to pick up whatever language a problem calls for. You'll meet Python, Rust and C# here, but we don't expect you to arrive knowing them all.
  • Real-world experience with cloud platforms (Azure, AWS or GCP) and containerised deployment on Kubernetes.
  • You understand how production systems get shipped, monitored and scaled, not just written.
  • Comfort with data at scale: SQL, and the trade-offs between different storage and search systems.
  • Experience working with coding agents, and opinions about them, What responsible use looks like, where they earn their keep and where they cost you, and how you keep evaluating them in an ecosystem that changes every few months.
  • An appreciation for tools that catch bugs before runtime — type systems, tests, and designs that make bad states unrepresentable.
  • A pragmatic grasp of computer science fundamentals.
  • Experience shipping LLM-backed products to production is a strong plus: prompting, evaluation, and everything else that turns a model into a feature people will trust.
  • Familiarity with document processing is a plus: OCR, layout, and the messy reality of documents as they actually arrive.
  • An opinion on what makes good code and good architecture, and the ability to argue it, including against us.
  • You're a builder and a problem-solver at heart.
