Jobs

Open Portland, OR software jobs

Every open software job across the Portland metro — the bi-state Portland-Vancouver-Hillsboro region, from Multnomah County out through the Silicon Forest in Washington County (Intel’s Hillsboro campus, Nike and Qorvo in Beaverton and Hillsboro), the Clackamas County suburbs (Siemens EDA in Wilsonville), and across the Columbia into Clark County, WA (Vancouver) — pulled straight from each employer’s own careers feed and laid out plainly, with no aggregator noise in between. National boards bury Portland under “remote / Portland-area” noise and routinely confuse it with Portland, Maine; I keep it local, primary-sourced, and unmistakably Portland, Oregon so wherever you are in the search, the next step is a little easier.

Program Manager, Site Reliability Engineering

No AI mention Remote (US) · Portland office Management

Summary

A technical program-management role embedded in Hydrolix's Site Reliability Engineering organization — not a hands-on engineering job. It owns coordination and process across SRE programs: incident-management cadence, post-incident review quality, on-call health metrics, release and feature-readiness coordination, and cross-team dependency tracking. Requires 5+ years of technical program management and comfort working alongside engineers (SLOs, incident lifecycle, release pipelines) without needing to write code; PMP is a plus.

Summary

A client-facing implementation role at SkyPoint deploying and customizing its data-and-analytics platform for senior-living operators (assisted living, skilled nursing, CCRCs).

Briefs are short editorial dispatches I publish when something newsworthy happens. They show up here as they happen. Check the global feed.

About this page

Every posting is classified into one of three AI buckets: AI required when the description names specific AI tools as required skills (GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, Cursor) or names LLM/agent/RAG/embeddings as core to the day-to-day; AI mentioned when the description mentions AI tooling in passing without it being the core skill; No AI mention when the description contains none of the relevant keywords. Each row shows the matched keyword evidence inline and surfaces named AI developer-productivity tools as expanded-row chips, so you can judge the signal for yourself.

The geographic filter is opinionated. The Oregon core — Multnomah County (Portland, Gresham, Troutdale), Washington County (the Silicon Forest: Hillsboro, Beaverton, Tigard, Tualatin, Sherwood, Forest Grove, plus Aloha, Bethany, and Cedar Mill), and Clackamas County (Lake Oswego, Oregon City, Milwaukie, West Linn, Wilsonville, Happy Valley, Gladstone, Canby) — and the bi-state core across the Columbia in Clark County, WA (Vancouver, Camas, Washougal, Battle Ground, Ridgefield) are always included and collapse to “Portland.” So are postings across the outer ring: Columbia County, OR (Scappoose, St. Helens), Yamhill County, OR (Newberg, McMinnville — the wine-country edge), and Skamania County, WA (Stevenson — the Columbia Gorge edge). The Salem / Marion County market and the rest of the broader Portland-Vancouver-Salem CSA are a separate labor market and intentionally out of scope. Remote postings are included only when the employer also has a Portland-area office — otherwise anywhere-in-the-US remote noise would swamp the page. Use the Location filter to narrow to a specific city.

This page is an independent aggregation. Mungomash is not affiliated with or endorsed by any of the employers listed. Application-status tracking and email alerts are out of scope. Per-posting salary ranges are surfaced inline when the employer discloses one — structured ATS fields first, JD-body prose as a fallback; rows with no disclosed range render no chip. For broader salary context, see H-1B Salaries (visa-petition disclosures) and Dev Wages (national survey).
