*** For immediate and confidential consideration, please APPLY and EMAIL YOUR RESUME to MEREDITH CARLE . My email can be found on my LinkedIn page. ***

Join a highly successful, financially strong organization where your work makes a visible impact. Unlike large enterprise environments filled with layers of bureaucracy, lengthy meetings, and rigid processes, this opportunity offers the ability to make meaningful contributions from day one. You'll have a voice at the table, direct access to decision-makers, and the ability to help shape solutions from concept through implementation.
This is a chance to join a professional, positive, and collaborative team that values practical problem-solving, ownership, and results. If you enjoy being hands-on, making end-to-end impact, and working with talented teammates in a stable long-term environment, we'd love to connect.
Responsibilities
• Develop, maintain, and enhance COBOL applications
• Support batch processing and scheduled jobs
• Troubleshoot production issues and implement fixes
• Partner with technical and business teams on ongoing initiatives
• Contribute to modernization and migration efforts
Qualifications
• COBOL development experience
• Experience with JCL, batch processing, or similar job scheduling tools
• Unix, Linux, HP3000/HP9000, or AS/400 (IBM i) experience preferred
• Strong problem-solving and production support skills
• Ability to work effectively within a small team environment
This is an excellent opportunity for someone who wants to step away from the constraints of a large corporate environment and join a team where ideas are heard, contributions matter, and great work gets implemented.

*** For immediate and confidential consideration, please APPLY and EMAIL YOUR RESUME to MEREDITH CARLE . My email can be found on my LinkedIn page.
