The role has three alternate primary locations — Dallas, TX; Pittsburgh, PA; and Cleveland, OH — all requiring five days per week on-site at the client site. Dallas is used as the primary CBSA; Pittsburgh (CBSA 38300) and Cleveland (CBSA 17460) are equally valid work locations.
The title 'Tech Lead' carries no standard seniority level word (Junior/Mid/Senior/Staff/Principal), so advertised seniority is Unspecified. The 8–12 years of experience requirement and team-leadership scope support a Senior classification.
This role sits between a hands-on Senior Software Developer (15-1252) and a Computer and Information Systems Manager (11-3021). The JD emphasizes staying 'hands-on with development' and individual technical contribution, which tips the classification toward 15-1252, but the mentoring, roadmap ownership, and team-leadership duties make 11-3021 a credible runner-up.
Angular is listed first among frontend frameworks in the required qualifications and is named in the skills tag list; React and Vue.js appear as 'or similar' alternatives. React is also listed separately in the skills tag list at the bottom of the posting, so it is surfaced as a preferred skill in its own right.
Employer will not sponsor immigration visas or green cards (PERM) for this role, as explicitly stated in the posting.
