Job description
DevGrid is a UK-based high-end software consultancy with its development base in Brazil and operations across Europe and the USA. We believe that world-class software can only be built by a motivated and enthusiastic team, and in an environment that promotes creativity and free-thinking.
This role is a great opportunity for anyone looking to work in a progressive environment and be part of a high-performance team.
Our Client is a global specialty plastics manufacturer with about a dozen 16bit applications written in Clipper. The client has been running these older apps on an MS DOS emulator (VDOS) running on a 64 bit platform, and there is concern that this work around will, in time, not work. As such, the client intends to re-create these apps using a more modern x-Base language.
