We are HQ'd in the beautiful state of Montana, and we are a well-established software/ERP company that has been in business for over 20 years!

• Define and drive the technical vision, architecture, and engineering best practices for government ERP products, emphasizing scalability, security, and maintainability.
• Own delivery and operational excellence for ERP modules such as utility billing, accounting, and municipality services ensure on-time, high-quality releases for SaaS and on-premise deployments.
• Partner closely with Product, Customer Success, Sales, and Implementation teams to translate customer requirements (municipalities, utilities, and other GovTech customers) into pragmatic technical roadmaps and deliverables.
• Lead modernization initiatives, including migration strategies from legacy platforms (e.g., FoxPro) to modern stacks (C#, .NET, SQL, cloud-native SaaS architectures).
• Establish and measure engineering KPIs (velocity, quality, uptime, security posture) and use data to continuously improve team performance and product reliability.
• Recruit, mentor, and develop engineering talent; foster a collaborative, inclusive culture that values ownership, continuous learning, and customer-focus.
• Ensure compliance with government regulations and procurement requirements, including security, data privacy, and audit readiness.
• Manage budgets, third-party vendor relationships, and technical vendor evaluations to support product and platform goals.
• Drive technical due diligence and support pre-sale efforts for enterprise/government procurement and RFP responses.

Qualifications

• Proven experience as a Director of Software Engineering (or equivalent senior engineering leader) with responsibility for multiple teams and product delivery in a remote environment.
• Demonstrated domain experience in Government and GovTech, with significant exposure to ERP systems for municipalities, utilities, or public-sector organizations.
• Hands-on technical background with enterprise development using C#, .NET, and SQL; familiarity with SaaS architectures and cloud platforms.
• Direct experience implementing or supporting ERP modules such as utility billing and accounting preferred.
• Track record of modernizing legacy systems and migrations from older stacks (experience with FoxPro or similar legacy platforms is a plus).
• Strong product partnership skills experience working closely with Product, Sales, and Customer Success to align engineering priorities with customer and market needs.
• Excellent people leadership skills: hiring, coaching, career development, and building engineering culture across distributed teams.
• Deep understanding of software security, compliance, procurement cycles in government, and working with municipal customers.
• Experience with Agile/Lean delivery practices, CI/CD pipelines, observability, and incident management.
• Strong communication, stakeholder management, and presentation skills; comfortable engaging with executive leadership, customers, and boards.
• Bachelors degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field, or equivalent practical experience; advanced degree a plus.
