Profusion is partnering with a financial services organization who are looking for a 'Senior Engineer - Mainframe' to join one of their departments on a permanent engagement. This will be a hybrid working model, with the office based in Surfers Paradise.

The client is looking for someone with the following:

Must Have
Solid proficiency in mainframe technologies — COBOL and/or PLI, with working knowledge of JCL, CICS, IMS, and batch processing
Experience developing and supporting applications on z/OS in a production environment
Demonstrated comfort using AI tools for software engineering (e.g., AI coding assistants, code generation, AI-assisted debugging) — this is a core skill, not a nice-to-have
Ability to investigate and resolve production issues on the mainframe — abend analysis, debugging, and performance diagnosis




A mindset of curiosity and adaptability — willingness to work outside your comfort zone and extend into up-to-date technology platforms

Highly Valued
Experience with Java, Spring Boot, REST APIs, and microservices
Experience with event-driven architecture and messaging platforms (Kafka, MQ)
Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, and modern DevOps practices
Experience in banking, financial services, or other regulated settings

Unfortunately for this role we cannot sponsor candidates, therefore if you hold either permanent residency or are an Australian citizen.
