About the Role & Team:

We are seeking a skilled and motivated Software Engineer to join our Money Movement Hub team. In this role, you will serve as the Senior developer responsible for the support and reliability of a mission-critical payment processing platform hosted on AWS. You will work across the full stack — front end and back end — while driving engineering best practices, CI/CD maturity, and DevOps culture within an agile team environment. This is a hands-on position requiring both deep technical ability and collaborative team guidance.

What you will be doing:

Application Development & Ownership

• Hands-on full-stack development of the Money Movement Hub application, covering both front-end interfaces and back-end services.

• Architect and implement scalable, highly available solutions on AWS (ECS, Lambda, RDS, SQS, API Gateway, and related services).

• Design and develop RESTful APIs and microservices in Java and Python.

• Own code quality standards — conduct code reviews, enforce best practices, and mentor junior engineers.

CI/CD & DevOps

• Build, maintain, and continuously improve CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins, GitHub Actions, AWS CodePipeline, Harness, or equivalent).

• Collaborate with DevOps and cloud infrastructure teams on deployment strategies, environment management, and release automation.

• Drive shift-left testing initiatives including automated unit, integration, and regression testing.

Production Operations & On-Call

• Participate in an on-call production support rotation for the Money Movement Hub platform.

• Lead incident response efforts: triage, root cause analysis, and post-incident review.

• Monitor application health using observability tooling (e.g., Dynatrace, Splunk, CloudWatch) and proactively address performance issues.

• Ensure high availability and resilience of payment processing flows including RTP and FedNow transactions.

Technical Leadership & Collaboration

• Serve as a technical point of contact for cross-functional stakeholders including DevOps, QA, product, and security teams.

• Contribute to sprint planning, backlog grooming, and agile ceremonies as a senior technical voice.

• Document architecture decisions, runbooks, and operational procedures in Wiki.

• Identify and advocate for technical improvements, debt reduction, and process maturity initiatives.

What you bring:

• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience.

• 3+ years of hands-on experience with Java (Spring Boot preferred) and Python in production environments.

• Demonstrated experience building and operating applications on AWS — familiarity with core services such as EC2, ECS/EKS, Lambda, RDS, S3, SQS, API Gateway, and IAM.

• Proven experience designing, implementing, and maintaining CI/CD pipelines in an enterprise or regulated environment.

• Strong understanding of DevOps principles: automated testing, infrastructure-as-code, monitoring, and release management.

• Experience with both front-end (JavaScript/TypeScript frameworks) and back-end development.

• Ability and willingness to participate in an on-call production support rotation.

• Solid understanding of RESTful API design and microservices architecture.

• Experience working in Agile/Scrum teams with tools such as Jira.

• Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science or related field or equivalent experience.

Added bonus if you have:

• Experience with payment platforms, real-time payments (RTP), FedNow, or ISO 20022 messaging standards.

• Familiarity with hybrid cloud/on-premises environments.

• Experience with observability tools such as Dynatrace, Splunk, or CloudWatch.

• AWS Certified Developer or AWS Certified Solutions Architect certification.

• Working knowledge of change management practices and ITSM tools (e.g., ServiceNow).

• Experience with containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes/EKS).

• Prior experience in financial services, banking, or fintech environments.

At FIS, we hire the best. In return, you receive exceptional benefits including:

• Opportunities to innovate in fintech

• Tools for personal and professional growth

• Inclusive and diverse work environment

• Resources to invest in your community

• Competitive salary and benefits
