A higher education institution is moving from its legacy student system to a new student platform. We are looking for experienced Mainframe/COBOL developers to support the legacy system through its final phase. This is a sunsetting engagement: no new development. The focus is on keeping the system stable and running until decommissioning., * Provide production support and maintenance for the legacy mainframe student system

• Troubleshoot and resolve issues to keep the system stable through the transition
• Support batch processing and existing jobs as the system winds down
• Work with the project team during the move to the new student system

• Strong hands-on experience with Mainframe and COBOL
• Higher education experience is mandatory (student information systems preferred)
• Ability to work independently in a fully remote setup
• Availability in EST or CST time zones

Nice to Have
