• Provided operating system and program product support, including problem resolution, tuning, procedural documentation, automation, and performance monitoring.• Provisioned user IDs and profiles.• Administered storage management of the DASD and tape subsystems.

• Provided assistance to the product support team in the maintenance of batch scheduling products and a conversion project from one scheduler to another.

• Eliminated costly, manually-intensive procedures by developing REXX programs and JCL on multiple z/OS systems to automate functions of security administration and provisioning in a complex, end-to-end service request-based ticketing application spanning multiple platforms (including web services, mid-range servers, and mainframes). • Reviewed daily termination requests and initiated servicing processes on complexes which did not yet have scheduled procedures deployed.

Armonk, New York, Ny, Us

• Developed and implemented REXX functions and PDF panels, after collaborating with clients to gather requirements and define acceptable tools, to simplify daily logon updates and provide the ability for programmers to temporarily grant shared access to application development data.• Audited daily logging, restarted inactive sub-functions, and verified completion of requests as level-2 technical support for a multi-client logon provisioning system.• Deployed software upgrades, performed steady state support (monitoring, tailoring, tuning, and on-call response), and provided problem analysis and resolution as needed on multiple z/OS systems across several high-availability complexes.• Designed, wrote, and enhanced REXX code to generate sysplex-based data center disaster recovery documentation and JCL that was successfully employed in annual large-scale exercises. • Achieved cost reduction goals and improved efficiency through careful preparation and execution of projects to eliminate multiple LPARs and consolidate data centers.• Planned and completed detailed, critical tasks in several large scale projects, including the conversion of PGMLIBs to PDSEs and REXX libraries to a variable record length format.

Dallas, Tx, Us

• Assessed daily logs and messages, monitored problem and performance reports, provided tailoring, on-call support, and change management for multiple z/OS systems across several sysplexes.• Delivered technical leadership to a multi-team project to design and deploy mainframe disaster recovery strategies and procedures.

Armonk, New York, Ny, Us

• Validated new system resident volumes and IPL processes for MVS/JES3 systems in preparation for production implementation and diagnostic testing. • Built and maintained a client mainframe environment, applied system options, resolved reported problems, and performed disaster recovery testing..

• Designed, wrote, and maintained assembler-language based programs and exits for a legacy output services subsystem integral to report processing and barcode label generation.• Provided principal support in the implementation of Advanced Function Printing in a high volume report printing environment.• Supplied technical expertise, determined system options, and coded assembler language-based modifications to support a cost-saving transformational project which converted a manually intensive, tape-based report printing and microfiche system to an online JES SPOOL process.• Trained operations staff, systems programmers, and application programmers in MVS Concepts, JCL, IBM Utilities, Assembler Language, and system error analysis.
