Techincal Lead - Software Development

Technical Lead – Software Development | Direct Hire | Hybrid, 4 Days Onsite – Bellevue, WA

Resourceful LLC is partnering with an IT consulting firm that serves enterprise and Fortune 1000 clients. We’re hiring a Technical Lead – Software Development for a direct-hire, full-time position leading the development team for an enterprise process and workflow management application that supports network engineering operations. The product is moving from an India-based development team to an onshore team in Bellevue.

This is a hands-on leadership role for an experienced software engineer who can take ownership of an existing product, lead a development team, and be the trusted technical voice in front of the client. You’ll need to understand the code deeply enough to guide engineers and make sound architecture decisions. You’ll also need to be just as comfortable in a stakeholder meeting as you’d be in a technical conversation.

What you’ll do

• Lead the onshore development team for the product, setting engineering standards, reviewing code, and mentoring developers.
• Work closely with the India-based development team, coordinating priorities, handoffs, and delivery across time zones.
• Take technical ownership of an existing codebase, driving knowledge transfer and documenting architecture, processes, and system knowledge.
• Help build and grow the onshore team, including onboarding new engineers.
• Serve as the primary technical point of contact for client stakeholders, communicating status, risks, and recommendations clearly.
• Guide application design and development using C#/.NET and modern front-end frameworks.
• Oversee the release process and CI/CD pipelines in Azure DevOps, including planning, rollouts, and rollback.
• Support Kubernetes and containerized deployments on Azure.
• Lead critical incident response, root-cause analysis, and long-term fixes.

What you bring

• 8+ years in software engineering, including 3+ years as a technical lead or development lead.
• Strong hands-on, current experience with C#/.NET (.NET Core / .NET 6+) and modern application architectures (APIs, microservices, event-driven).
• Experience with Azure DevOps and Kubernetes (required).
• Proven experience leading or working closely with India-based or offshore development teams.
• Proven ability to take over and stabilize an existing codebase or product.
• Experience working directly with clients or senior stakeholders.
• Excellent communication skills and a steady, organized leadership style.

Nice to have

• Angular experience
• Experience building workflow, process management, or business process applications
• Telecom or network engineering domain experience
• Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, Bicep, or ARM)
• Azure Cosmos DB and Azure Service Bus
• Microsoft Certified: Azure Solutions Architect Expert or Azure Developer Associate
• Consulting or client-services background

Details

• Employment type: Direct hire, full-time
• Location: Hybrid, 4 days per week onsite in Bellevue, WA
• Schedule: This role requires a split-shift schedule to overlap with the India-based development team, including some early-morning or evening hours. After-hours availability is also required for releases, incidents, and critical milestones.
• Compensation: $140,000–$175,000 base salary + benefits
• Work authorization: Must be authorized to work in the U.S. Sponsorship is not available.

If you’re a software development leader who enjoys taking ownership of a product, leading distributed teams, and being the client’s go-to technical partner, we’d love to talk.
