Roadrunner is growing, and we're looking for a highly motivated Lead Software Engineer (.NET) to join our winning team. If you're results-driven and want a fast-growing company with strong growth and earnings potential, apply today!
Much of our operation runs on software we build ourselves. We're modernizing our core platforms, moving off legacy systems and onto cloud-native, API-first services on Azure. We also have AI use cases running in production and are expanding them carefully.
As Lead Software Engineer (.NET), you'll drive engineering practices and hands-on design within the applications team, working closely with our Director of Architecture. Your work directly affects how freight moves.
This role may provide opportunities for future leadership growth based on business needs and individual performance. You'll start as a hands-on lead, and as you show leadership, you can take on broader responsibility for people, priorities, and technical direction.

Roadrunner is for ambitious, smart people who excel at execution over talking about it, and who would rather invent the next standard in freight than accept the status quo.
We are looking for the Best of the Best. Action driven leaders who want to be part of real change and help design the future of LTL in the U.S. This is a place where high performers can grow, influence outcomes, and make an impact while working directly with executives and smart people from across industries.
We bring a winner mindset. We take ownership, raise the bar, and measure ourselves by results. We Run Safe. We Run Smart. We Run Together. These principles create an environment of high standards, clear ownership, and direct collaboration. We trust data over intuition, move with urgency, and hold each other accountable because winning requires it.
Roadrunner exists to prove that LTL can be better than the industry has settled for. To be the best means we need to think bigger, look outside the box, and question every assumption: too many handoffs, limited visibility, and the quiet belief that “this is just how it works.” We rejected that story. We built a proprietary Smart Network™ for direct, long haul, metro to metro service that delivers fewer touches, faster transit, real time visibility, and genuine accountability. We are the most tech forward company in LTL, and we are not finished widening the gap.
The foundation is already strong. Recognized as one of Built In Chicago’s Best Large Places to Work. Earning top marks for improvement, quality, and service. The real opportunity is still ahead: helping invent what comes next.
If you want to be evaluated among the Best of the Best and help set the new standard in LTL, we should talk.
