  • Proficiency in DB2 for i, embedded SQL, and Control Language Programming (CLP).
  • Solid understanding of AS/400 system architecture, subsystems, job scheduling, batch/interactive processing, and library management.
  • Skilled in debugging, performance tuning, and modernizing legacy COBOL applications.
  • Familiarity with 5250 terminal emulators or green-screen user interfaces.
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to collaborate effectively with both technical and business stakeholders.
  • Self-driven, with a proven track record of delivering results in remote and distributed team environments.
