Job Description

LRS Consulting Services is seeking an experienced IT Technical Development Leader for a contract-to-hire opportunity with a Fortune 1000 client headquartered in the Midwest. This is a strategic, high-impact role leading a team of 7–10 developers in the design and delivery of scalable, cloud-native digital solutions. The position is focused on leadership and architecture rather than hands-on coding.

Key Responsibilities

  • Provide direction and leadership to development teams aligned with enterprise digital initiatives.
  • Collaborate with business stakeholders to understand needs and design innovative technical solutions.
  • Architect modern, cloud-native applications and ensure consistent delivery of high-quality software.
  • Champion DevOps practices, agile methodology, CI/CD pipelines, and emerging technologies including generative AI.
  • Mentor team members and foster a culture of continuous improvement and innovation.
  • Interface with leadership, cross-functional teams, and external partners to support business goals.

    Required Qualifications

  • 7+ years of experience leading software development teams and delivering technical solutions.
  • Expertise in designing and delivering APIs and microservices in cloud environments (Azure, AWS, or GCP).
  • Hands-on familiarity with C#, Python, or JavaScript/TypeScript.
  • Experience implementing DevOps practices, automated testing, and agile methodologies.
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills with the ability to translate technical concepts for non-technical stakeholders.

    Stronger Candidates Will Have One or More of the Following

  • Master’s degree in a related field
  • Certifications in cloud platforms or project management
  • Experience managing remote and hybrid teams
  • Practical use of generative AI tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT)

    Work Environment

  • Role offers flexibility: fully remote, hybrid, or on-site
  • Must be available for a 1–2 week onsite onboarding period, followed by periodic visits throughout the year

    Team Environment

    This role reports into a high-visibility leadership group. While most of the team is collaborative and engaging, the direct hiring manager has a challenging communication style and expects a high level of accountability. Candidates with strong emotional intelligence and the ability to navigate complex personalities will thrive. Candidates located within a ~3.5-hour radius (Midwest region preferred) will be given priority due to ease of travel

The base range for this contract position is $60.00 - $90.00 per hour, depending on experience. Our pay ranges are determined by role, level, and location. The range displayed on each job posting reflects the minimum and maximum target for new hires of this position across all US locations. Within the range, individual pay is determined by work location and additional factors, including job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
