Job Description

Title: Senior IBM i/AS400 Developer
Location: Hybrid in Minneapolis, MN or Denver, CO (3 days in office 2 days remote)



We just got a new req with Client for a IBM i/AS400 Developer. The full details are below. This is a tougher and older skillset so let's see what we can find. We can use relocation candidates.

This group manages Client's fleet application (Over-The-Road application) as part of their Voyager program - this is a legacy application 20-30 year old AS/400 application that Client uses to process gas cards to fleet customers like US Government Client, trucking companies to deliver mail or other products for the bank.
  • The application is relatively stable - small enhancements need to be made as business requests come in, but the existing application is largely "keeping the lights on"
  • Troubleshooting issues as they arise - common issues like file transfer failures, authorization failures, batch failures.
  • Application is a large monolith, integrates with 1 API, an MQ, and just receives data through the self-contained AS/400 database. Some SQL skills would be helpful to troubleshoot data issues, but not a large part of the role.
  • They are in the process of modernizing this application and migrating to a Java/Spring Boot based microservices application - this role will help analyze and extract the business logic embedded in the RPG code and front-ends and participate in modernization efforts. Has a Product Manager and Java Engineers working on the modernized application, but they are not able to understand the RPG code.
  • Breakdown: 25% enhancement, 25% prod support/troubleshooting, 50% modernization effort.
  • Java/Spring Boot experience is nice to have but not a hard requirement.
  • RPG programming experience is core requirement - both free- and fixed-formats are in use, there are UIs and business logic written into the application.
  • New code changes are all promoted through CI/CD pipelines - Gitlab and ARCAD. Would be very nice to have/make a profile stand out if they had DevOps and CI/CD experience - would not be expected to build any pipelines, just deploy their code.
  • May be some on-call need for production support, but doesn't anticipate it being common.

Requirements:
  • AS/400
  • RPG programming
  • Ability to extract business logic and (green screen) user interface components from RPG code to participate in modernization conversations
  • Basic SQL
  • Nice to Have: CI/CD (Gitlab and ARCAD - this will help get the win), Java, Spring Boot
