Principal Data Engineer

Are you ready to architect the data backbone of local government innovation? At Springbrook Holding Company, we are looking for a visionary Principal Data Engineer to join our mission-driven Technology team. As we scale our Cirrus platform to serve thousands of government agencies across the nation, you will play a pivotal role in designing the robust, multi-tenant cloud architectures that power essential public services. This is a unique opportunity to own high-impact technical initiatives while acting as a mentor and leader for our offshore engineering team, providing you with a clear, accelerated pathway into formal Data Engineering Management.

We believe that true leadership is built through hands-on technical excellence and the ability to inspire others. In this role, you will bridge the gap between complex data strategy and team execution, managing 3–5 talented offshore engineers while collaborating directly with our VP of Engineering to shape our long-term data roadmap. If you are a collaborative problem-solver who thrives in a remote-first environment and wants to see your code make a tangible difference in the efficiency of local communities, we want to hear from you. Join us at Springbrook and turn your passion for data into a career-defining leadership journey.
