About The Job

If your passion and senior leadership experiences span IT strategy, data, innovation, transformation, and security, we want you to lead our next chapter of growth!

ABOUT THE BRUNING LAW FIRM

The Bruning Law Firm (BLF) is not a traditional personal injury practice. We are a "digital-first," "data-driven" organization on a mission to fight for our clients’ rights. We have built a sophisticated, high-velocity ecosystem centered on the Salesforce platform to innovate the legal industry and set a new standard for client service and case outcomes.

Under the philosophy that technology is the cornerstone of our competitive advantage, BLF has grown into a leading personal injury firm in St. Louis. We seek a strategic technology leader to join our executive team and accelerate our next growth phase.

YOUR ROLE AS DIRECTOR OF TECHNOLOGY

As our Director of Technology, you will serve as far more than our primary tech visionary. You will be the chief architect of the firm's entire technological ecosystem. As an essential business advisor to the firm’s leadership, you will lead a small yet mighty team to define and deliver our technical strategy, automate critical workflows, and own the data that drives our success. With technology at the heart of our business, you will enable success through the development and execution of a multi-year strategic roadmap that directly impacts our goal of providing the best representation to our clients.

SERVE AS GROWTH-CENTRIC STRATEGIC LEADER

You will own the firm's technology stack and data strategy with an owner's mentality. Your primary goal is to leverage technology to drive profitable and sustainable growth.

Partner with firm leadership on annual budgeting, strategic planning, and the development of firm-wide goals.
Manage the comprehensive technology budget and all vendor relationships to ensure maximum ROI.
Develop and execute a firm-wide AI strategy, leveraging tools like Claude and Salesforce Agentforce, to create a tangible competitive advantage.

INSPIRE A TEAM OF TECH ENABLERS

You will inspire, develop, and lead a high-performing team to enable our strategic goals.

Foster a team culture that promotes proactive problem-solving, accountability, continuous improvement, and a commitment to outstanding internal customer service.

ENSURE A STRONG FOUNDATION FOR SUSTAINABLE GROWTH

From infrastructure to security to policy, you will oversee all technological strategy and architecture to ensure a sustainable backbone for the firm.

Own the entire firm technology stack, primarily focusing on optimizing our Salesforce-centric environment.
Ensure all systems and workflows adhere to the highest standards of data security and regulatory compliance (HIPAA, ABA Rules, etc.).
Establish and enforce best practices for all technology assets and internal processes.

DRIVE WORKFLOW AUTOMATION & A ROBUST DIGITAL ROADMAP

You will lead and execute a robust multi-year roadmap to guide the firm’s investments in automation and competitive digital solutions.

Lead the overall tech strategy for our firm, ensuring scalability, security, and seamless integrations.
Deconstruct, analyze, and automate core business processes, from marketing to lead intake and qualification to client onboarding and case management.
Cultivate a culture that embraces digital change and data-driven decision-making.

COLLABORATE AS A CROSS-FUNCTIONAL PARTNER

You will serve as a strategic advisor for leaders and team members across the firm.

Build strong relationships and open lines of collaboration with the other department heads.
Work hand-in-hand with department leaders to deliver aligned success and integrated technology solutions that create a seamless experience for our clients and our team.

IS THIS A MATCH FOR YOU?

You excel in an entrepreneurial, fast-paced environment and are passionate about building systems that create a competitive advantage. You consider yourself a tech strategist with a practical, get-it-done mentality.
You have earned a Bachelor’s degree in Information Technology, Computer Science, or a related technical field.
You have gained 10+ years of technical experience with a demonstrated record of success in growing people, processes, and organizational resources. This must include 3+ years of management experience with direct reports.
Hands-on Salesforce platform expertise required. You should be comfortable code-reviewing Apex, auditing flow architecture, and stepping in as a senior practitioner when the team is stuck — not managing Salesforce specialists from the outside. Active certifications (Admin, Platform Developer, Application Architect) are welcomed; demonstrated platform fluency is the actual test.
You bring solid expertise in cloud computing platforms, a strong background in managing integrated SaaS environments, and experience with data analytics and data-driven decision-making.
You are an AI enthusiast, excited about the changes and efficiencies that can enhance both the employee and customer experience.
You are a hands-on leader, able to flex between high-level strategy and tactical execution. You possess a strong business acumen and the ability to communicate a vision with patience and clarity to various stakeholders.

WHY JOIN US?

DRIVE STRATEGIC IMPACT: We seek a Director of Technology with the energy, drive, and creativity to build a best-in-class technology ecosystem that is the core of our business strategy. Your work will directly and indirectly impact the firm's success.
INNOVATE THE LEGAL INDUSTRY: You will be at the forefront of legal technology, leveraging AI and automation to change how legal services are delivered.
VALUE, TEAMWORK & TRUST: We build relationships that feel like family. We take care of our clients and value our employees, and we believe our people-first culture is the key to our success.
