Remote mainframe jobs include a variety of positions, including those in development, customer service, and system administration. In these roles, you may telecommute to monitor existing mainframe systems, help develop new software, secure a computer network, or otherwise manage and control the operations of the mainframe from home. Some remote mainframe jobs also involve coordinating with an on-site engineer to reprogram or adjust mainframe systems as necessary. This is a relatively broad job title that can refer to many different positions, so you may need to narrow your search to specific roles in order to get results that match your education and experience.
| Aspect | Remote Mainframe | Remote Data Analyst |
|---|---|---|
| Required Credentials | Mainframe certifications (e.g., IBM Certified Specialist) | Data analysis certifications (e.g., Microsoft, SAS) |
| Work Environment | Legacy systems, mainframe terminals, specialized software | Modern computers, data visualization tools, databases |
| Employer & Industry Usage | Financial institutions, government agencies, large corporations | Tech companies, marketing firms, healthcare organizations |
| Common Search & Comparison Intent | Technical skills, mainframe job roles, remote opportunities | Data analysis skills, remote data jobs, analytics roles |
Remote Mainframe and Remote Data Analyst roles differ mainly in technical focus and work environment. Mainframe roles involve legacy systems and specialized certifications, often within finance or government sectors. Data Analyst positions focus on modern data tools and visualization, applicable across various industries. Both roles are in demand for remote work, but they serve different technical needs and skill sets.

X by 2 is a technology consulting firm specializing in healthcare and insurance transformation. For over 25 years, we have partnered with leading organizations across North America, from strategy and architecture to system modernization, data analytics, and AI, delivering high-impact solutions from start to finish. We're agile, collaborative, and deeply committed to doing consulting the way it was meant to be done.
We are looking for a Technical Lead who will lead the design and development of enterprise software solutions. You'll combine hands-on engineering with leadership, guiding architecture decisions, mentoring teams, and building solutions.
Technical Leadership & Architecture
Lead architecture, design, development, testing, and deployment of enterprise software solutions (applications, data, integration, AI agents, AI models)
Translate fuzzy, ambiguous business problems into concrete, well-scoped technical solutions that teams can execute against
Participate in strategy and roadmap discussions, architecture definition, and technology evaluations
Mentor engineers through design reviews, code reviews, and technical guidance
Quickly evaluate and adopt new tools, technologies, and platforms to build prototypes and proofs-of-concept
Drive adoption of the use of AI in the software development life-cycle with engineering teams, product leaders, and domain experts to deliver results
Software Engineering
Design, develop, and maintain scalable, production-grade enterprise applications using modern languages and frameworks (e.g., Python, Java, C#, JavaScript)
Define and enforce coding standards, best practices, and design patterns across the team
Build a strong testing culture, including unit, integration, and end-to-end testing, and design systems for testability from the outset
Establish and evolve automated testing strategies and quality gates within CI/CD pipelines
Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code, and cloud-deployed services (AWS, Azure)
Integrate enterprise systems using common approaches such as APIs, event-driven architectures, and messaging platforms
Identify and resolve performance bottlenecks, technical debt, and system reliability issues
Experience
6+ years of experience in software engineering designing and developing enterprise applications, data/analytics solutions, and/or integration solutions
1+ years of providing technical leadership as Tech Lead, Lead Engineer, or Architect
1+ years in AI-augmented software development of enterprise solutions
Education
Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Software Development, Software Engineering, or Computer Engineering
(Optional) Master's Degree or Minor in AI/Machine Learning
Software Engineering Skills
Programming (e.g., Python, Java, C#, JavaScript)
Data (e.g., Relational Modeling, SQL, Document Databases, Graph Databases)
Integration & Messaging: REST/GraphQL APIs, event-driven architectures, and messaging platforms (e.g., Kafka, RabbitMQ, Azure Service Bus)
Containerization (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes)
Cloud Platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure)
AI Engineering Skills
AI-Augmented Development: Using AI coding assistants to accelerate software development (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Cursor)
LLM Prompt Engineering & Fine-Tuning: Designing effective prompts, system instructions, and fine-tuning strategies for LLM applications within the context of the software development life-cycle.
What We're Looking For
You move fluidly between writing code and leading a room, equally comfortable in a design review as you are in a pull request
You have strong opinions about architecture and aren't afraid to share them, but you know when to listen and adapt
You take ownership seriously, on small teams, your decisions have real impact and you're energized by that, not intimidated
You're genuinely curious about AI, not just checking a box, you've experimented with agentic systems, LLMs, or ML tools on your own terms
You communicate clearly with both engineers and non-technical stakeholders, and can translate complexity without dumbing it down

Hybrid: Flexibility to work remotely, but not fully remote
Travel to X by 2 offices (Farmington Hills, MI) and client sites (within US) is required when requested
Work alongside smart, collaborative people who continually challenge and invest in each other
Partner with seasoned architects to solve hard problems and challenge assumptions
Small teams mean real ownership, with growth and responsibilities driven purely by individual performance
Everyone has a voice and is encouraged to shape the company by sharing their interests, ideas, and feedback
Base salary $143K–$185K, depending on experience, plus profit sharing
Annual raises and promotions based on performance
401(k) with employer match
Comprehensive health, vision, dental, life, and disability insurance coverage, plus voluntary benefits and HSA with employer contribution
Home Office Reimbursement, Health and Wellness Reimbursement, and Professional Dress Allowance
Professional Self-Development Program
Paid vacation, unlimited sick days (as needed), and holidays
Company-sponsored social events and an employee recognition rewards program
We're not looking for someone who has done everything, we're looking for someone who is driven to. If you thrive in environments where you can move fast, go deep, and make a real difference for clients solving complex problems in healthcare and insurance, we'd love to hear from you.
We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses and identifying potential inconsistencies or verification signals in application materials based on available information. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans. If you would like more information about how your data is processed, please contact us.
