About UA Brands
At UA Brands, we’re changing the way healthcare and culinary professionals get dressed. For over 40 years, we’ve created stylish, high-performance uniforms designed to empower those on the front lines. Our apparel breaks the mold, combining innovative design with real-world functionality. Join a team that values creativity, collaboration, and innovation as we continue to redefine uniforms that don’t conform.
Our distribution center operations play a critical role in delivering products efficiently and accurately to our customers. We are seeking an experienced Manhattan SCALE 2016 WMS Software Developer to support, maintain, and enhance our warehouse management system and the technology that powers our distribution operations.
About the Opportunity
This is a hands-on software development position requiring direct, professional experience working with Manhattan SCALE 2016.
The ideal candidate combines advanced Microsoft SQL Server development skills with strong application programming experience and a practical understanding of warehouse operations, material handling equipment, and distribution center workflows.

This is not a database administration, reporting, or functional WMS analyst position. This role requires someone who can independently develop, modify, troubleshoot, and support software solutions within a Manhattan SCALE 2016 environment.
