What are RPG ILE Programmers?

RPG ILE Programmers are software developers who specialize in writing, maintaining, and optimizing applications using the IBM RPG (Report Program Generator) language, especially within the Integrated Language Environment (ILE) on IBM i (AS/400) systems. Their work often involves modernizing legacy business applications, integrating new features, and ensuring system reliability. They use RPG IV (also known as ILE RPG) to take advantage of modular programming and other advanced features, which help businesses manage large-scale data processing and enterprise resource planning tasks efficiently.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an RPG ILE Programmer, and why are they important?

To thrive as an RPG ILE Programmer, you need strong expertise in RPG IV/ILE, IBM i (AS/400) systems, and a solid understanding of business application development, often supported by a degree in computer science or related experience. Familiarity with technical tools such as IBM Rational Developer for i (RDi), SQL, and CL programming is typically required. Attention to detail, analytical thinking, and effective communication are important soft skills for understanding business requirements and collaborating with users and team members. These skills ensure robust, maintainable code that meets organizational needs and supports critical business processes.

What are some common challenges faced by RPG ILE Programmers when working on legacy systems?

RPG ILE Programmers often encounter challenges when maintaining and modernizing legacy IBM i (AS/400) systems, such as deciphering outdated or poorly documented code and integrating legacy programs with modern applications. Collaboration with business analysts and end users is crucial to accurately interpret business logic and ensure smooth transitions during upgrades or migrations. Additionally, RPG ILE Programmers must stay updated on both legacy and new technologies to implement best practices and future-proof their solutions.

Job description

Why Fresche? We don't just keep legacy systems running - we transform them. For over a decade, Fresche Solutions has been the partner organizations trust for IBM i modernization. You'll work from anywhere in North America, with genuine flexibility and a culture where our values actually shape the technical decisions we make every day.
The Impact You'll Make
This isn't a code-and-ship role. As a Senior RPG Programmer/Analyst, you'll lead the analysis, design, development, and maintenance of business-critical IBM i applications - architecting solutions that help clients bridge legacy reliability with modern efficiency. You'll work independently and alongside a collaborative team, guiding clients through real challenges in their business application systems and seeing your decisions make a measurable difference.
What You'll Do
  • Consult and collaborate. Partner with clients to resolve application issues, uncover business needs, and deliver solutions across the full project lifecycle.
  • Architect and develop. Analyze, design, code, and test applications using all versions of RPG and SQL.
  • Ensure quality. Safeguard application integrity through unit, integration, smoke, and other testing phases.
  • Document and communicate. Translate system architecture into clear documentation that works for technical and non-technical audiences alike.
  • Lead. Guide a small technical team when needed and run code reviews for database and logic changes.
  • Modernize. Help clients transform legacy applications into scalable, modern ILE solutions.

What You Bring
  • Proven IBM i depth - extensive, demonstrated experience on the IBM i (iSeries / AS/400) platform, with the judgment that comes from years of solving real business problems on it.
  • Business acumen - you understand the operations behind the code (distribution, manufacturing, finance, or insurance) and can spot when a technical solution actually serves the business need.
  • Advanced RPG - mastery across RPG forms, especially RPGLE, including free-form syntax and embedded SQL.
  • Database depth - expert-level DB2 application programming and database design.
  • Modern ILE fluency - strong command of modules, service programs, and binding directories.
  • Change management - comfort with structured deployment and version control processes.
  • Communication that bridges worlds - you can explain the "why" to business stakeholders and the "how" to developers with equal ease.

Nice to Have
  • Experience with major IBM i ERP systems (Infor LX, BPCS, Infor XA, MAPICS, PRMS, JDE, Frontier, HFA, and others)
  • Background in distribution, manufacturing, finance, or insurance applications
  • Familiarity with RDi or other Eclipse-based IDEs
  • Git or SVN experience in an IBM i environment
  • Impact analysis tools
  • Integration work with APIs, JSON, XML, and tools like GoAnywhere

Ready to Transform the Industry?
We're looking for creative, motivated people who do their best work in fast-paced environments. If you're committed to excellence and want to work with the best in the IBM i space, we'd love to hear from you.
