Job Title: Mainframe Modernization Expert 
Location: Columbia, MD 
Duration: Part-Time (20 hours/ week) 
 
Job Description:
We are seeking an experienced Mainframe Modernization Expert with a solid track record in converting mainframe applications and databases to cloud-hosted, modernized solutions. This role requires deep expertise in mainframe (M/F) systems, hands-on experience with mainframe-to-modern code conversion tools, and a strong understanding of cloud environments and Java-based solutions. The selected candidate will be responsible for analyzing, designing, and implementing migration strategies to transition our mainframe-based systems with minimal downtime and maximum data integrity. 
 
Key Responsibilities:
  • Analyze legacy mainframe systems (e.g., COBOL, DB2, stored procedures, BMS Maps, JCL) to identify migration paths, dependencies, and potential risks. 
  • Migrate or redesign user interface components, including BMS Maps, into modern Java-based front-end frameworks. 
  • Translate and optimize batch processing components, including JCL-driven jobs, to Java batch frameworks, ensuring equivalent functionality and performance. 
  • Design and execute a comprehensive migration strategy, prioritizing critical components such as business logic, UI screens, batch processes, and stored procedures. 
  • Utilize modernization and code conversion tools to facilitate an efficient migration process, ensuring compatibility with modern cloud-hosted solutions. 
  • Convert or rewrite mainframe DB2 for z/OS stored procedures and schemas to Java-compatible formats or modern database solutions. 
  • Provide expertise in handling IBM Db2 for z/OS, including schema understanding, data model optimization, and stored procedure integration with COBOL or other mainframe languages. 
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to maintain business continuity, data integrity, and minimize downtime during migration. 
  • Leverage cloud platform knowledge (e.g., AWS, Azure, Google Cloud) to deploy and manage modernized systems in cloud-hosted environments. 
  • Ensure all migrated applications, UI components, batch processes, and databases are optimized and meet performance requirements in the cloud environment. 
 
Key Qualifications: 
  • Mainframe and Database Expertise: Extensive experience with mainframe applications, including BMS Maps, JCL, and DB2, and deep involvement in end-to-end migration processes. 
  • Modernization Tools Proficiency: Skilled in using code conversion and migration tools to support smooth and efficient transitions to modern architectures. 
  • Cloud Knowledge: Familiarity with cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud and deployment of Java-based solutions. 
  • DB2 for z/OS: Proficient in IBM Db2 for z/OS, with strong knowledge of mainframe DB2 schemas, stored procedures, and experience rewriting them for modern databases. 
  • Java Understanding: Good knowledge of Java, with familiarity in Spring or microservices-based frameworks preferred. 
 
Abilities: 
  • Analyze and break down legacy components, including BMS Maps, batch JCL jobs, and DB2 entities, to define detailed migration strategies. 
  • Prioritize migration tasks to focus on critical system components and ensure minimal business disruption. 
  • Design and implement strategies that ensure data integrity, maintain business continuity, and deliver high performance in the modernized cloud environment.
