What You'll Be Doing

Our Cloud Engineering Transformation (CET) Mainframe Engineering team is responsible for delivering stable, secure, and resilient mainframe infrastructure that supports critical business operations. As a Senior z/OS System Programmer, you’ll report to the Director, Mainframe Engineering and provide technical leadership across complex z/OS operating system upgrades, maintenance rollouts, and infrastructure initiatives within a geographically dispersed parallel sysplex (GDPS) multi-site environment. You’ll help ensure our environments remain reliable and compliant with established controls, standards, policies, and procedures. You’ll collaborate with senior leaders, internal partners, and external vendors to assess risks, recommend resiliency and integrity improvements, and support the availability of our hardware and software assets in line with service level agreements. You’ll also contribute to the growth of the Mainframe Engineering team by sharing your expertise, supporting development, and fostering strong collaboration across peer groups.

At CIBC we enable the work environment most optimal for you to thrive in your role. Details on your work arrangement (proportion of on-site and remote work) will be discussed at the time of your interview.

How You'll Succeed

Technical leadership - Lead complex z/OS operating system implementation, upgrade, and maintenance planning across large-scale mainframe environments. Provide subject matter expertise to support infrastructure stability, security, and operational resilience.
Systems support and problem resolution - Diagnose and resolve complex technical issues using your knowledge of IBM support structures, diagnostic processes, and system tools. Document root cause analysis, corrective actions, and preventive measures to strengthen ongoing support practices.
Resiliency and recovery - Support and lead annual mainframe disaster recovery exercises, maintain recovery readiness, and recommend continuous improvements to strengthen business continuity capabilities.
Platform expertise - Apply your in-depth knowledge of Parallel Sysplex, Geographically Dispersed Parallel Sysplex (GDPS), System Modification Program Extended (SMP/E), system exits, and programming tools such as Assembler, COBOL, REXX, and CLIST to maintain and enhance the platform.
Collaboration and influence - Partner with teams across Application Development, Infrastructure, Information Technology (IT) Operations, and Production Support, as well as hardware and software vendors, to deliver solutions that align with technology and business goals.
Operational support - Participate in the on-call rotation and proactively monitor system health to identify risks, prevent issues, and help ensure service expectations are consistently met.

Who You Are

You have deep mainframe expertise. You bring 10+ years of experience in mainframe technology, with strong expertise in z/OS systems programming, operating systems support, and large-scale implementation planning.
You have relevant technical knowledge. You have hands-on experience with Parallel Sysplex, GDPS architecture, IBM utilities, compilers, and diagnostic tools such as SYSVIEW, MainView, and IntelliMagic. Experience with IBM certifications or advanced mainframe accreditation is an asset.
You’re a strong problem solver. You use analytical thinking, sound judgment, and a disciplined approach to resolve issues effectively, especially in high-pressure or major incident situations.
You’re an effective communicator and collaborator. You build strong relationships across technical teams, business partners, and vendors, and you communicate complex information clearly through verbal, written, and presentation-based interactions.
You lead with impact. You use your expertise and credibility to influence decisions, guide best practices, and help teams adopt solutions that improve security, resiliency, and operational performance.
You live your values. You bring high standards, genuine care to your relationships, and want to grow with an employer that shares your values and brings out your best.
