Job description

We’re looking for a hands-on Development Team Lead to lead a team of developers supporting and enhancing a primarily VB6 and Oracle PL/SQL-based application portfolio, while helping guide ongoing modernization efforts. This is a manager-track role focused on people leadership and delivery-not full-time coding-but requires enough technical depth to review code, influence design decisions, and query data when needed.

You’ll oversee a mix of break/fix work, enhancements, and multiple active projects, operating in a fast-paced, high-volume environment. Success in this role requires a proactive mindset, strong ownership, and the ability to balance legacy system stability with forward-looking improvements, while collaborating closely with executives and cross-functional partners.

Requirements

Strong software engineering foundation with solid OOP understanding, especially within legacy application environments.
Prior hands-on development background with significant experience in VB6 and Oracle PL/SQL
Ability to review and guide VB6 and PL/SQL code, support technical decision-making, and contribute to architecture discussions.
Strong SQL proficiency, with the ability to write and review queries independently (Oracle preferred).
Experience leading teams supporting high-volume, ticket-driven workloads alongside active project work.
Demonstrated ability to take initiative quickly, operate with urgency, and learn new technologies as modernization efforts evolve.
Comfort prioritizing work in environments with more demand than capacity.
Strong communication skills with the ability to engage executives on a regular basis. * Deep experience with Oracle PL/SQL, Oracle Forms, and legacy VB6 systems.
Background in legacy modernization, system refactoring, or platform migration initiatives.
Exposure to parts of the broader stack, including:
React (with Node.js)
PostgreSQL
Experience helping introduce or mature CI/CD practices in traditionally manual or legacy environments.
Familiarity with Jira, Confluence, and SharePoint.
