We are excited to welcome Michigan-based Chris Hyde to BlueModus as a Solution Lead. Chris has a wealth of experience managing development teams in several different industries during his 25+ year career. He constantly seeks ways to simplify and solve complex problems in software systems design and code. At BlueModus, he will lead the solution and architecture for our clients’ public and internal-facing websites.

“I think initially, the geographic diversity of BlueModus drew me in. I enjoy meeting people from different places and with different backgrounds. Add to that the focus on fostering a culture deeply rooted in support of its members, and I knew BlueModus was the place for me,” shares Chris.

Since 2010, Chris has been the Software Development Director at Red Cedar Solutions Group, an organization focused on helping companies by developing meaningful solutions to real-world challenges. He was responsible for the standards, processes, architecture, development, and implementation of all software solutions. His most significant efforts included working with MI School Date, Michigan’s official education data source, and Stepwell, a collaborative web-based platform providing visibility for all aspects of special education compliance and monitoring at the district, regional, and state levels, including Parts B and C compliance with the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).

“I am really excited for Chris to join our team! He is hard-working, positive, and collaborative. This, combined with his wealth of leadership expertise, experience, and technical knowledge, set him up to be a hugely successful addition to BlueModus,” says Dave Bromeland, BlueModus’ Development Director.
