Contract was to work as staff augmentation, lasted 1.3 years and ended due to departmental budgetary constraints.Programming Languages: COBOL, Natural (up to V4.1.4), CICS, JCL Databases: ADABAS (up to V7.4.4), DB2 File Management: File-AID, Syncsort, GDG. MQ SeriesChange Management: CA EndevorDebug Facility: ExpediterComputer Tools: MS Office; Member of the Risk Assessment Division team tasked with the maintenance and monitoring of Auto and Property Claim Loss processing between Business Units and Vendors.Division generated Maintenance Projects to address Production issues; for multiple concurrent projects I coded, created Test Case documentation, performed Unit Testing, scheduled and conducted code walk reviews, migrated code via CA Endevor to Test regions for User Acceptance Testing and then to Production once sign off had been obtained, and filed associated paperwork once project was complete.Division was primarily COBOL/DB2 with the exception of several Natural/ADABAS programs which were in need of conversion; extracted the business rules from these programs, created both on-line and batch COBOL/DB2 versions, conducted parallel testing and Production migration.Actively involved in performing daytime On-Call duties which covered Production, Development and Test regions with associated error log entries into Sharepoint; also, the extracting and loading of DB2 data from region to region. Claims processing was handled via MQ Series queues which could become back logged creating a bottleneck; monitored these queues as part of the On-Call responsibility; researched and corrected root causes, processed backlog and notified the appropriate personnel of the delay so as to address any SLA issues.. On-Call training documentation was scattered and incomplete; created and maintained a singular reference source which reduced the time spent researching response procedures and expounded general responsibilities.
