Role & responsibilities

Ford Motor Credit Company is seeking a highly skilled mainframe software engineer to join our Customer and Account Servicing team. In this position, you will play a pivotal role in design, development, and maintenance of multiple critical business applications running on Z/OS platform. This position requires deep expertise in COBOL, JCL, DB2, and Z/OS systems, with a strong emphasis on performance optimization, complex problem-solving and ensuring the reliability and scalability of high-volume transaction and batch processing systems. As a senior member of the team, you will not only contribute hands-on to key projects but also provide technical guidance and mentorship to less experienced developers, driving best practices and innovation within our mainframe environment.

  • COBOL Development & Optimization: Design, develop, test, and maintain complex COBOL programs, ensuring code efficiency, maintainability, and scalability, especially when dealing with large datasets and intricate business logic.
  • JCL Management & Troubleshooting: Create, enhance, and troubleshoot intricate JCL job streams, including the use of PROCs, conditional execution, and advanced error handling. Develop robust restart and recovery strategies to ensure data integrity and minimize reprocessing in case of job failures.
  • DB2 Database Interaction & Tuning: Develop and optimize SQL queries for DB2 on z/OS, focusing on performance, concurrency, and data integrity. Utilize DB2 tools (EXPLAIN, RUNSTATS) and implement effective indexing strategies to resolve performance bottlenecks.
  • z/OS System Utilization: Leverage essential z/OS utilities (e.g., IDCAMS, IEBGENER, DFSORT, IEFBR14) for data management, file manipulation, and system tasks. Monitor z/OS system performance and troubleshoot issues using tools like SDSF and RMF.
  • Complex Problem Solving: Diagnose, analyze, and resolve multi-component production issues spanning COBOL applications, JCL processes, and DB2 database interactions. Apply a systematic approach to identify root causes and implement effective solutions.
  • Modernization & Integration: Participate in initiatives to modernize existing COBOL applications and integrate mainframe systems with distributed technologies (e.g., REST APIs, messaging queues, cloud platforms). Address challenges related to data conversion, security, and transaction context.
  • Technical Leadership & Mentorship: Provide technical guidance, code reviews, and mentorship to junior mainframe developers. Share knowledge, best practices, and contribute to the overall technical growth of the team.
  • Documentation: Create and maintain comprehensive technical documentation, including program specifications, JCL procedures, and operational guides.
  • Collaboration: Work closely with business analysts, project managers, operations teams, and other development teams to deliver robust and reliable mainframe solutions.
