What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can deliver mainframe modernization and integrations in Agile teams—owning reliable production support, troubleshooting issues quickly, and improving performance to keep insurance systems running smoothly.

I’m a Mainframe Developer with 4+ years of experience in mainframe development, modernization, and integration within the insurance domain. At DXC Technology, I support ZurichNorthAmerica’s claims modernization by integrating ClaimsConnect (Java/Pega) with the mainframe application ACCESS, delivering scalable, high-quality solutions in Agile environments.

I’ve built and enhanced web service integrations and COBOL programs to surface ClaimsConnect payments alongside legacy ACCESS activity, and I’ve strengthened COBOL-DB2 and JCL modules for daily payment balancing and recovery queue workflows. As an SME for Data Mover modules, I analyze the impact of DB2 table-structure changes on PROD and NON-PROD batch and online programs. I also lead Agile ceremonies, run code reviews, mentor teammates, and handle production support to minimize downtime and resolve complex issues—earning DXC Champ Awards (2022–2025) and client appreciation for fast, reliable incident resolution.
