About the company
TransLution builds shop floor and warehouse execution software that integrates deeply with ERP Systems. Our solutions run in live production environments for 350+ manufacturing customers.
When our code works, operations run. When it doesn't, forklifts stop and production lines wait. That's the job.
Responsibilities
- Translate business requirements into working systems — specifically, the data logic and automation that sits between an ERP and the physical operation of a warehouse or factory floor.
- Spend most of your time in Microsoft SQL Server: writing stored procedures, designing for performance, and structuring data that gets hit hard in real-time environments. This isn't reporting work. It's transactional, operational, and it has to be fast.
- Take on custom projects and R&D work. When the standard toolset doesn't solve the problem, build what's needed — sometimes in VB, sometimes in other scripting tools, sometimes in something new entirely.
- Own your solutions end to end: from reading the Business Requirement Specification, through designing the logic, to peer-testing it and supporting the go-live.
- On-site travel is minimal and varies by project, but when a client is going live, you're the person they rely on technically.
Requirements
- Deep T-SQL capability: complex stored procedures, query optimisation, database design for high-throughput environments. This is non-negotiable.
- Logical rigour: test your own work like someone who knows what happens when bad data hits a shop floor at 6am on a Monday.
- Comfort with ambiguity: client operations are messy. Requirements shift. You need to figure out what the system actually needs to do, not just what the spec says.
- Willingness to work with legacy tools: we use VB in places. It's not glamorous, but it works and it needs to be maintained and extended.
- Curiosity about new approaches: we're actively investing in R&D. If you want to research and build, there's space for that here.
- Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related discipline.
- 3+ years in a technical role involving software implementation, systems integration, or data engineering.
- Advanced Microsoft SQL Server / T-SQL skills (mandatory).
- Exposure to VB.NET, Python, or similar scripting languages (beneficial).
- Experience with ERP systems is an advantage, not a requirement.
Conditions
- Company contributions include provident fund, group-life insurance and funeral plan.
