Principal Software Engineer (.NET/React)

SkyWater has partnered with a Twin Cities technology company that builds software and is hiring a Principal Software Engineer to lead its platform work. This is an individual contributor seat reporting to the Director of Software Engineering, with no direct reports and hands‑on coding every day. You would run a rotating platform team of developers, serve as incident commander during critical outages, and share ownership of the company's AI‑first development effort. Non-negotiables: a deep .NET background, and fundamentals that stand on their own with or without AI tooling. What makes the seat worth a look: ownership of core platform decisions, a direct line to engineering leadership, and a hard, well-defined first project. One day a week onsite in the Twin Cities, flexible on which day. Base range is $160,000 to $180,000.
