Position Summary:

As a Mainframe Modernization Developer and Data Architect, you will be responsible for analyzing, designing, and implementing code and database changes to support the successful modernization and migration of mainframe applications to the cloud or on a modern cloud-connected mainframe. You will work with solution architects, software architects, and data architects to analyze legacy mainframe databases and file systems, along with the associated application code, to help determine the right future state data model and design required for the target architecture.

This role includes developing modifications to the modernization tools as well as involvement in modernizing client mainframe applications and databases. Activities can include the following:

  • Converting mainframe source code and database structures to a modern distributed application/application systems architecture.
  • Enhancing Prolog code for scanning and language conversion to address unique client application code structures.
  • Engaging in detailed conversations with solution architect(s) and technical leads regarding options for customizing and modifying code, and data conversion tools.
  • Supporting client mainframe application modernization projects through the solution design, calibration, code and data conversion, testing, and validation phases.

This includes:

  • Supporting proof of translation/proof-of-concept demonstrations for clients.
  • Creating conversion data maps and data dictionaries of the current and target database.
  • Analyzing mainframe application code and relationships/dependencies on the database to identify potential issues needing resolution to support successful migration.
  • Performing data modeling to adjust and optimize the target data design.
  • Reviewing DDL scripts and making modifications to create the target database.
  • Running the data conversion tool and addressing any errors.

  • 3+ years of work experience in data modeling and database design for relational databases such as IBM DB2 or Microsoft SQL Server.
  • 3+ years of programming in a combination of Java, C#, and COBOL
  • Ability to self-learn new languages and database management systems.

Experience That Will Set You Apart:

  • Master's degree in Computer Science or Information Science/Technology
  • Previous Mainframe programming experience/background.
  • Prolog programming for Artificial Intelligence.
