The ideal candidate possesses strong legacy system expertise in COBOL, Control-M enterprise job scheduling, and Linux shell scripting / OpenVMS DCL. Because this role supports a core deposit platform, a solid foundational understanding of banking and accounting principles is essential for validating interest calculations, account balances, and financial statements.

Database Skills: Intermediate to advanced knowledge of Oracle PL/SQL, database schemas, and SQL query construction.

Domain Knowledge & Experience:

Banking & Accounting:



Foundational knowledge of basic banking and accounting principles (e.g., debits/credits, general ledger postings, interest accruals, and transaction balances).

Operating Systems: Direct experience working within Linux/Unix production environments; experience with the OpenVMS operating system is a strong asset.

SDLC & Process Tools: Proven familiarity with standard Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) methodologies, change control procedures, and daily operational proficiency with Jira.

Key Jobs & Responsibilities:

Production Support & Batch Monitoring: Provide comprehensive production support for the Depo platform. Support the nightly batch schedule on an on-call rotation basis using Control-M.

Incident Resolution & Troubleshooting: Investigate, diagnose, and resolve technical issues, failed batch jobs, and processing anomalies occurring in the batch.

User Support & Data Extraction: Address user inquiries regarding application functionality, including account and interest statements. Extract data on balances, accounts, and transactions.

Engineering & Enhancements: Design and develop system enhancements, ad hoc requests, and robust environment scripts using Linux shell and OpenVMS DCL.

Analysis & Documentation: Perform analysis for system upgrades. Provide development/testing estimates, and author technical design specifications and application documentation.

Testing & Release Coordination: Execute integrated testing with related applications. Create and manage formal change requests (CR) following corporate SDLC guidelines.

Process & Compliance: Maintain real-time task tracking in Jira. Provide daily updates to management. Adhere strictly to institutional client policies and mandatory training timelines.
