Why Join Fresche?
At Fresche Solutions, we don’t just maintain legacy systems; we transform them. For over a decade, we've been the leading partner for IBM i modernization and innovation. We offer a true work-from-anywhere (North America) model, prioritizing work-life balance and a culture where our values aren't just posters on a wall, they guide every technical decision we make.
The Impact You’ll Make
As a Senior RPG Programmer/Analyst, you will lead the analysis, design, development, and maintenance of business-critical IBM i applications. You are architecting solutions that help our clients bridge the gap between legacy reliability and modern efficiency – not just writing code.
You will work both independently and as part of a collaborative team, providing our clients with consulting services in support of their business applications systems.
Day-to-Day Responsibilities
- Consult & Collaborate: Support our clients in resolving application issues, identify business needs, and deliver solutions throughout the full project life cycle.
- Architect & Develop: Analyze, design, code, and test software applications using all versions of RPG and SQL.
- Testing and Quality Assurance: Ensure program and application integrity through various testing phases (Unit, Integration, Smoke, etc.).
- Document and Communicate: Translate system architecture into clear textual and visual documentation for both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Quality Leadership: Capable of leading a small technical team when required. Lead code reviews for database and logic changes.
- Modernize: Support our clients to transform legacy business applications into modern, scalable ILE applications.
What You Bring to the Table
- Expertise: 20+ years of proven experience with the IBM i (iSeries/AS/400) platform.
- Advanced RPG: Mastery of various forms of RPG (especially RPGLE, including Free-form syntax and embedded SQL).
- ERP / Package Experience: Proven hands-on experience with JDA/MMS (Mandatory).
- Database Depth: Expert-level DB2 application programming and database design.
- Modern Concepts: Deep understanding of ILE concepts (Modules, Service Programs, Binding Directories)
- Change Management: Experience navigating structured deployment and version control processes.
- Communication: Capable of verbal and written communication with various levels of client personnel. The ability to explain technical "why" to stakeholders in business terms and "how" to developers in technical terms.
- Nice to Have
- Application Packages: Experience with major IBM I ERP systems (Infor LX, BPCS, Infor XA, MAPICS, PRMS, JDE, Frontier, HFA, etc.)
- Applications: Distribution, Manufacturing, Finance, Insurance.
- Tooling: Experience with RDi (Rational Developer for i) or Eclipse-based IDEs.
- Modern DevOps: Familiarity with Git or SVN in an IBM i environment.
- Analysis: Experience with Impact Analysis tools.
- Integrations: Experience with integration solutions using APIs, JSON, XML and other integration tools such as GoAnywhere.
- Ready to Transform the Industry?
- We are looking for motivated, creative thinkers who thrive in fast-paced environments. If you’re committed to excellence and want to work with the best in the IBM i space, we want to hear from you.
