This entry-level position offers a unique opportunity to begin a career in software development, specifically focusing on mainframe technologies. No previous software development experience is required - the company emphasizes willingness to learn and hard work over prior experience.

The role involves comprehensive training in mainframe development, including working with JCL (Job Control Language), Control-M for job scheduling, and Control-D for report viewing.

The position combines individual work with team collaboration, providing a balanced learning environment.
