PRINCIPAL SOFTWARE ENGINEER

Location: Remote - USA

Industry: Critical Services, Water and Wastewater


The platform already works. Your job is to make it exceptional.


We're searching for a Principal Software Engineer to take full ownership of a mature B2B product. Not maintain it. Own it. Audit what's there, fix what's holding it back, and architect the next generation of it.


This is a builder's seat with a leader's reach. You'll set the technical direction and mentor the backend team that executes it, reporting directly to the VP of Industrial Technology.


What you'll own:

  • Full product development lifecycle, from auditing existing design through implementation
  • Architecture of new features on a live, high-traffic B2B platform
  • Leading and mentoring a team of backend engineers building scalable services
  • Security, data protection, and compliance best practices baked in, not bolted on
  • Translating what cross-functional departments actually need into system reality


What we need to see:

  • BS or MS in Software Engineering, Computer Science, or a related discipline
  • 7-8 years in design and product development, in a true B2B setting
  • Fluency in C#, .NET, Node, and MS SQL Server
  • Front end depth in React or Vue, TypeScript, and Bootstrap
  • REST and GraphQL, Postgres patterns, NoSQL, Linux backend environments
  • Serverless AWS and demonstrated CI/CD expertise
  • Real UI / UX instincts. This product is judged on how it feels, not just whether it runs
  • Someone who can talk to engineers and non-engineers with equal credibility


If you've spent your career strengthening platforms other people built and you're ready to own one end to end, let's talk.
