Restore a backup of MSDB as a user database, extract the job (it'll be in the sysjobs and sysjobsteps tables), recreate it.

you don't have a backup of MSDB? Why not? Do you understand what all it holds? Don't mean to scold however...

it is dev environment and there is no maintenance job on this box

Then you'll have to recreate the job from scratch. Once done, may I suggest setting up backups? The fact that it's a dev server does not mean it's unimportant.

This happened to me, I had to remove log shipping completely and remove all the agent jobs. This is not an easy process. Google scripts to remove log shipping.
