About the Umbraco Consultant Role at Robert Half

Robert Half is seeking an exceptional Umbraco Consultant to join our client's dynamic team in Minneapolis, Minnesota. This is a high-impact contract position for a technical leader who thrives on driving digital transformation through Umbraco CMS expertise. As the go-to Umbraco specialist, you'll provide hands-on development, strategic leadership, and mentorship to elevate our client's web development capabilities. With a focus on migrating from Kentico to Umbraco, implementing accessible solutions, and establishing scalable standards, this role offers the perfect blend of technical depth and leadership opportunity.

Our client is undergoing a major CMS modernization initiative, and your expertise will be pivotal in delivering reliable, accessible, and high-performance web solutions. This position is ideal for seasoned developers passionate about Umbraco, .NET, and web accessibility who want to make a tangible impact on enterprise-level projects. Join Robert Half's network of top technology talent and advance your career with this exciting Umbraco Consultant opportunity in Minneapolis, MN.

Why This Umbraco Role Stands Out

Unlike traditional development roles, this position combines deep technical implementation with architectural leadership. You'll not only code but also shape the future of the team's Umbraco practice, ensuring long-term success through documentation, standards, and knowledge transfer. Perfect for Umbraco certified professionals or those with proven migration experience from platforms like Kentico.

Key Responsibilities

Technical Leadership & Standards

Lead by example as the primary technical authority on Umbraco CMS. You'll provide guidance on architecture best practices, establish comprehensive standards for workflows, design patterns, and project structure across Umbraco and supporting .NET technologies. Your leadership will ensure consistent, high-quality deliverables that scale with business needs.

Mentorship & Knowledge Transfer

Mentor existing web developers, transitioning them into Umbraco and .NET experts. Create practical documentation that empowers the team to operate independently after your initial engagement. This knowledge-sharing aspect is crucial for the client's long-term success.

Core Development & Migration

Hands-on development of foundational Umbraco components including content types, document templates, and navigation patterns. Lead complex migration strategies from Kentico, developing content mapping schemas and execution approaches to minimize downtime and preserve data integrity.

Integrations & Accessibility

Implement essential third-party integrations such as Google Analytics, tag management systems (GTM), and interactive maps. Champion web accessibility by embedding WCAG compliance into all components through semantic HTML, keyboard navigation, accessible forms, and ARIA landmarks. Define rigorous acceptance criteria and mixed testing protocols (automated tools + manual audits).

Required Qualifications

To excel as our Umbraco Consultant, you need proven hands-on experience with Umbraco CMS versions 10+ and strong .NET Core/ASP.NET proficiency. Experience migrating from Kentico or similar CMS platforms is essential, along with deep expertise in web accessibility implementation (WCAG 2.1 AA). You should demonstrate technical leadership capabilities, having mentored teams and established enterprise development standards.

• 5+ years Umbraco development with recent v10+ projects
• Kentico-to-Umbraco migration experience
• Expertise in content modeling, templates, and macros
• Strong .NET/C# development skills
• Accessibility implementation (semantic HTML, ARIA, keyboard nav)
• Experience with analytics, GTM, and mapping integrations
• Documentation and knowledge transfer expertise
• Testing strategy development (automated + manual)

Bonus: Umbraco Certified Developer, Azure DevOps experience, or headless Umbraco implementations.
