Application Developer Spearhead Labs, Inc. | Cincinnati, Ohio Position Type: Full-Time Experience Level: Open — Early Career through Senior Developer Work

Location:
Cincinnati, Ohio — Hybrid/Flexible Start Date: Flexible About Spearhead Labs Spearhead Labs is a Cincinnati-based software development and consulting company that helps businesses solve operational challenges through practical technology solutions. We build what businesses cannot buy off the shelf and connect the systems and data they already have. Our work includes custom application development, business intelligence and Power BI dashboards, data integration, process automation, and modernization of existing systems. We help organizations connect information across departments, improve workflows, gain visibility into operations, and make better decisions. Our customers range from small businesses and nonprofits to organizations with complex operational, engineering, quality, and compliance requirements. We believe good technology starts with understanding how a business actually works. Rather than simply automating existing processes, we work alongside our customers to identify opportunities, improve workflows, and build solutions that deliver measurable value. Our goal is to create systems that continue helping organizations improve long after implementation. Founded in 2020, Spearhead is a small, collaborative team built around open communication, technical curiosity, personal accountability, and continuous improvement. We encourage employees to ask questions, challenge ideas, take ownership of their work, and contribute to decisions. About the Position We are looking for an Application Developer who enjoys building software, solving technical problems, and seeing their work make a difference. This is a hands-on development position focused primarily on writing, testing, deploying, and maintaining business applications. You will work directly with our technical team to translate business requirements into reliable, maintainable software. Much of our development involves Flex-365, our existing, configurable business application platform. We extend and customize this platform to deliver solutions such as order management, workflow automation, approval processes, operational reporting, and data integration. We also develop standalone applications and modernize existing software systems. Our applications often connect with existing business systems and data sources, supporting broader solutions that include automation, Power BI reporting, and business analytics. While this position is focused on application development, you will have the opportunity to see how software, data, and business processes work together to create complete solutions. Because we are a small company, developers participate in multiple aspects of the software development lifecycle, from understanding requirements and evaluating technical approaches to implementation, testing, and deployment. We are open to different levels of experience. An early-career developer may work alongside experienced team members while building technical proficiency. A more experienced developer may take greater ownership of architecture, implementation decisions, and complex development assignments. In either case, the primary responsibility is developing and delivering working software. This is not a management position.
