Lead AS400 Developer

📍 Nagpur 🏷️ Software Development 💰 ₹148,500 / month

About the Role

MIHAN in Nagpur has a Lead AS400 Developer opening, full time, on site, with a software team maintaining mainframe systems on IBM's AS400 platform. Nine years of experience is the expectation, and this lead role carries real authority over batch processing architecture.

A Day in This Job

The work covers designing and building software components, working closely with product and QA teams, reviewing code, and troubleshooting issues reported by users, all within RPG and DB2 on a platform that quietly runs core business processes. A lead developer here reviews batch job designs from other developers, since a scheduling conflict can cause real overnight processing failures.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Own AS400/iSeries architecture decisions
  • Review batch job designs from other developers
  • Write and maintain RPG programs
  • Mentor other developers on the platform

Qualifications

A bachelor's degree in computer science, information technology, or a related field is expected, along with practical, hands-on project experience and strong proficiency in the relevant languages and frameworks.

Skills That Matter

  • RPG at a genuinely senior level
  • AS400/iSeries
  • DB2
  • Debugging and batch processing

Good to Have

Experience with JCL for job scheduling at scale, familiarity with modernization approaches for legacy AS400 systems, and any background mentoring newer developers through the platform's steep initial learning curve.

Why This Role

MIHAN has grown into a significant logistics and IT hub for Nagpur, and this team's AS400 work is a genuinely specialized niche fewer developers enter each year, giving this lead role real, lasting relevance. Naukri Mitra has listed a few software roles from this employer, and lead developers who've joined recently describe mentoring newer team members through the platform's learning curve as one of the more satisfying parts of the job, since the payoff is visible fairly quickly.

The Interview Process

Interviews include a technical round on RPG and batch processing architecture and a discussion of a past mentoring experience. Candidates who describe patient, structured teaching tend to interview well.

Benefits

  • Health insurance covering the employee and immediate family
  • Paid time off
  • Performance-linked bonuses
  • Relocation assistance and accommodation support for candidates moving to Nagpur
