Data Manager Jobs in Colorado: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a data manager in Colorado?
Colorado does not issue a state license for data managers, so entry depends on education and demonstrated technical experience. Most hiring managers in Colorado expect a bachelor's degree in information systems, computer science, or a closely related field. Candidates who add vendor-neutral credentials such as a Certified Data Management Professional (CDMP) designation from DAMA International, or cloud platform certifications from AWS, Microsoft Azure, or Google, stand out in Colorado's competitive tech and healthcare markets.
How much do data managers make in Colorado?
Data managers in Colorado earn a median of about $118,340 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $61,930 for the lowest 10% to over $164,780 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire data managers in Colorado?
Employers hiring data managers in Colorado right now include Amazon, HDR, and Meta, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Colorado's mix of large health systems, aerospace contractors, and technology firms creates consistent, varied demand for data management professionals across the state.
Which Colorado cities have the most data manager jobs?
Denver, Boulder, and Colorado Springs lead Colorado for data manager openings. Denver dominates because of its concentration of large health systems, financial services firms, and technology companies, while Boulder's research and startup ecosystem and Colorado Springs' defense and government contractors generate steady additional demand that keeps those metros consistently on hiring lists.
Are there remote data manager jobs in Colorado?
Yes, and more than most fields. About 77% of data manager openings tied to Colorado are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, reflecting how much of the work centers on database administration, governance policy, and analytics rather than on-site hardware. Roles focused on cloud platforms, enterprise data architecture, and business intelligence reporting are the most likely to offer full remote or flexible arrangements.
How can I get hired as a data manager in Colorado with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is moving laterally from a data analyst, database administrator, or business intelligence analyst role, which are common stepping-stone positions at Colorado employers like DaVita, UCHealth, and state government agencies. Many of these organizations hire entry-level data analysts and coordinators who can grow into management over time. Earning a CDMP foundation certificate or a cloud platform certification strengthens an application significantly when hands-on management experience is limited.
Where can I find and apply to data manager jobs in Colorado?
You can find and apply to data manager jobs in Colorado on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from employers hiring in the state right now. Search the listings for roles that match your experience level and specialization, then apply directly to the ones that fit.
