History:
11/1999 - 8/2012. Confidential. Application Developer. Work included COBOL programming in a mainframe MVS environment using TSO/ISPF, FileAid, Changeman, Expediter, VSAM, and BAL. Responsible for on call and maintenance of Money Market Payment, Fraud, and Task Analysis systems.
My chief responsibilities were to the company Money Market application, which provided check processing facilities for about a dozen large clients. I was normally the sole programming resource. The application was home grown, and chunks of it had been written and rewritten several times. The application had facilities for users within the company via CICS, and included many batch jobs and transmissions. The Money Market application processed about 600,000 records a month at its peak. Currently, it processes about 150,000 records a month.
My work included fixing bugs in the online and batch processes, adding new functionality, accommodating customization requests, and overall maintenance.
In addition, I was the contributing resource on several company applications- including the company\'s Check Recon application, Phoenix application, and CPCS application. I was the maintenance resource on the Check Fraud application.
Back end of a monthly statement processing system. My programs captured, stored, filtered and transmitted check records for processing by a third party. I created the associated reports and JCL. Coding also involved changes to the online CICS menus. I created and executed all the testing and built all the documentation, in addition to co-writing the system design.
Sole programming resource for creation of the automatic NSF function. This system received and processed bad / incorrect check records transmissions from customers. This system involved changes to CICS menus and the creation of several batch COBOL programs.
Sole programming resource for the rewrite of the check fraud system. The check fraud system was originally written in CA proprietary language DYL-280. I rewrote the system in COBOL as part of a State Street effort to move away from Computer Associates products.
Creation of a Global Change function. I built an online system allowing changes to all of a client\'s funds at once. For example, instead of setting the minimum or maximum amount to be written fund by fund, or have to change an account number fund by fund, a State Street employee changes a client\'s funds all at once, online, via CICS.
Automation of the Compensation System. Money Market checking accounts are processed during the day. At night, those funds are available to be invested overnight. I programmed the system that captured the check records and subtracted all the changes / deletions / modifications made throughout the day. The compensation report was the result of several jobs that ran throughout the day. The report displayed the amount of activity against any particular fund, allowing other company departments to know how much they had available to invest. This report took the place of a manual system that had been in place for many years.
