About this role
APL Logistics is seeking a Senior Specialist in Applications Development to lead Oracle database design and optimization work across their global logistics operations. Based in Hyderabad, this in-office role manages application development projects ranging from $100K to $500K, requiring someone with at least six years of hands-on experience in Oracle 12c/19c and PL/SQL. You'll be responsible for translating business requirements into robust system solutions, particularly within freight forwarding and third-party logistics contexts, while overseeing project timelines, resources, and vendor relationships in an Agile environment.
The position demands strong technical depth in performance tuning, SQL optimization, and complex PL/SQL development (packages, procedures, triggers, and bulk processing), combined with the ability to identify process gaps and drive operational improvements across regions. You'll need to balance independent problem-solving with stakeholder management—gathering requirements from business users, confirming solution designs, and communicating trade-offs to supervisors when scope or resources shift. Experience with Kafka, Informatica ETL, or Python is valued but not required.
Travel comprises roughly 20 percent of the role. A degree in Computer Science or equivalent professional experience is required; familiarity with the logistics or freight forwarding industry is an advantage but not essential.
