As a pioneer in digital outdoor navigation with a suite of apps, onX was founded in Montana, which in turn has inspired our mission to awaken the adventurer inside everyone. With more than 400 employees located around the country working in largely remote / hybrid roles, we have created regional “Basecamps” to help remote employees find connection and inspiration with other onXers. We bring our outdoor passion to work every day, coupling it with industry-leading technology to craft dynamic outdoor experiences.
Through multiple years of growth, we haven’t lost our entrepreneurial ethos at onX. We offer a fast-paced, growing, tech-forward environment where ownership, accountability, and passion for winning as a team are essential. We value diversity and believe it leads to different perspectives and inspires both new adventures and new growth. As a team, we’re hungry to improve, value innovation, and believe great ideas come from any direction.

At onXmaps, we build apps that enable millions of people to plan their adventures and navigate the outdoors with confidence.

As a Principal Data Engineer, you will design and build the next generation of these systems in Google Cloud, tackling the challenges of managing data at scale. Success in this role means leading by example in the systems you design and the code you write while mentoring senior engineers and influencing engineering leadership.

This is a unique opportunity to join a growing and successful company while playing a pivotal role in shaping one of the greatest pillars of our success—the data and insights our users rely on most.
This position serves as a Principal Engineer within the Content domain at onXmaps and reports directly to the Senior Director of Engineering. You play a key role in shaping the future of how we manage data at scale.
