Rain Bird is seeking a Senior Application Developer to join our team, where you will play a crucial role in developing software solutions that support our commitment to the Intelligent Use of Water™. In this position, you will work closely with internal customers and vendors to create design specifications for new applications, enhancements to existing applications, and integrations between various systems. Your primary focus will be on developing solutions based on these specifications, managing the delivery of tested solutions, and overseeing projects from design through implementation. As a Senior Application Developer, you will be responsible for studying information needs, conferring with users, and analyzing systems flow, data usage, and work processes. You will investigate problem areas and follow the software development lifecycle to ensure operational feasibility. Your role will also involve documenting and demonstrating solutions through various means such as flowcharts, layouts, diagrams, and clear code comments. You will conduct systems analysis to improve operations and recommend changes in policies and procedures. Additionally, you will create technical design and migration procedure documents, particularly focusing on transitioning from on-premise applications to cloud architectures. You will design and implement plans aimed at improving security, quality, delivery, and productivity while reducing operational costs. Providing technical support for internally developed applications and guiding external resources will also be part of your responsibilities. Effective communication and quality assurance through unit testing will be essential aspects of your role, as you will need to identify technical problems and define solutions with minimal direction.
