This is an eligibility/compatibility analysis based on occupation lists and salary thresholds — not a guarantee that a permit will be granted, and not a statement that this employer will sponsor.
HubSpot's Developer Acceleration group empowers over 2,000 engineers to build, test, and deploy their code at scale. The release engineering team owns the full delivery pipeline — from pull request to production — and is responsible for hundreds of thousands of builds per day, including tens of thousands of QA deployments.
We're in the middle of a fundamental shift. Agentic AI is changing what release engineering can look like — from AI-powered QA agents that evaluate every deploy, to systems that can reason about risk, surface anomalies, and make autonomous decisions in the delivery pipeline. The team is actively building toward this future, and the opportunity for someone who can help shape it is significant.
The team owns and evolves some of the most critical foundational systems inside HubSpot's engineering organization, including build infrastructure, test orchestration, deployment pipelines, and the tooling that underpins incident management and production reliability. This is not a team focused on maintaining existing systems. It is an engineering organization responsible for rethinking how software gets shipped at scale — and what becomes possible when intelligent agents are embedded throughout that process.
We're looking for a Principal Software Engineer to help define the technical future of release engineering at HubSpot — at the intersection of large-scale distributed systems and agentic AI.
The role of AI in software delivery is no longer theoretical. We're actively deploying AI agents across our build, test, and deploy pipeline, and we're only at the beginning of understanding what's possible. This is a rare opportunity to work on infrastructure problems that very few engineers have encountered — at a scale that demands novel approaches — while helping to define what AI-native release engineering looks like in practice.
At HubSpot, Principal Engineers are expected to stay close to the code, lead high-impact initiatives end-to-end, and influence technical direction well beyond a single team. This role is for someone who can move between infrastructure architecture, agentic AI systems, and large-scale delivery pipeline design while remaining a hands-on builder throughout

Why This Role Matters
HubSpot's engineering productivity depends on a delivery platform that is not only reliable, but fast, intelligent, and built for the scale we're operating at today — and the scale we're building toward. The Principal Software Engineer in Developer Acceleration will help determine how that platform evolves, how AI changes what's possible in software delivery, and how thousands of engineers across HubSpot ship better software, faster.
