Our industry-leading e-commerce experience, indispensable product selection, and world-class service bring hundreds of thousands of customers to our site each day. But we're never standing still. Our curious, exceptional people are at the heart of our evolution. They turn new challenges and disruptive technologies into opportunities to refine our operations, expand our offering, and deliver a better experience for every customer.

How You'll Make An Impact
Our technology team builds the software that powers our e-commerce experience and our world-class operations. From customer-facing web features to distribution center automation, we design and scale critical systems that enable McMaster-Carr to deliver same-day or next-day orders reliably and efficiently. As a Senior z/OS Platform Engineer, you'll work on projects like:

  • Write code to enhance the availability, resiliency, and efficiency of mainframe software and systems that bring value to customers.
  • Leverage application, resource, and system data to drive down costs and support company goals and strategies.
  • Build technical knowledge through learning groups, book clubs, and one-on-one mentoring.
Who You Are
We're looking for curious, driven engineers who thrive in collaborative environments and love solving hard problems. Ideal candidates will have:
  • At least 3 years of experience with technologies such as z/OS, CICS, Db2, JCL, SMP/E, SMS/ACS, Networking, z/OSMF, and Zowe.
  • A thoughtful, analytical approach to problem-solving and technical design.
  • Clear, confident communication skills across technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Interest in mentoring, coaching, and growing as a leader.

Cash Compensation

  • Total cash compensation is generally around $235,000 to $310,000 and includes a profit sharing based on company profitability.
  • You will also receive a relocation stipend and signing bonus.

Benefits

  • 100% tuition reimbursement
  • Informal and formal mentorship
  • Employee resource groups

Health & Wellbeing

  • Medical, dental, pharmacy, and vision plans with no monthly premiums
  • Inclusive, all-gender benefits
