I build reliable Medicare claims systems across mainframe and modern backend technologies.
What I'm looking for
At ASK Consulting, I develop and maintain COBOL and Assembler components for Medicare Fee for Service claims processing, supporting stable operations and improving Durable Medical Equipment contract processing efficiency by 15%. I design unit tests, translate complex requirements into technical solutions, and use GitHub, Jira, and Confluence to support delivery in a regulated healthcare environment.
Previously at Cognizant and Branch, I improved claims-processing throughput, integrated legacy systems with Java components, and contributed to Java and Python backend development. I bring seven years of experience across COBOL, CICS, JCL, VSAM, Agile delivery, DevOps pipelines, testing, troubleshooting, and mentoring junior developers.
