Job Description

The future of money is being built right now. At FIS, we help the world’s businesses, banks and communities move, manage and grow money with confidence. Join a team that values fresh thinking, works together to solve complex challenges, and creates technology that powers everyday life.

About the role

As a Manager, Software Engineering, you will lead engineering teams responsible for developing, modernising and supporting digital wealth-management capabilities used by financial institutions, investment professionals and their clients.

You will combine people leadership, technical direction, delivery accountability and production ownership. Working closely with Product, Architecture, Quality Engineering, DevOps, Client Services and other engineering teams, you will translate product and client priorities into secure, resilient and maintainable software.

A key part of the role will be balancing continued delivery for established product capabilities with the modernisation initiatives of the platform which includes UX modernisation, AI-enabled workflows, mobile capability, data-driven decision support and API-led integration.

Your key responsibilities

  • Lead and develop a high-performing engineering organization, establishing clear objectives, engineering expectations and accountability while coaching engineers and technical leaders through regular feedback, career development and succession planning.
  • Own engineering delivery for the product capabilities, from solution design and development through automated testing, release, production deployment and ongoing support.
  • Provide technical leadership for complex functionalities, including advisor workflows, investor experiences, client and account servicing, trading, portfolio information, reporting, entitlements and integrations with enterprise and third-party platforms.
  • Drive platform modernization, improving architecture, user experience, API integration, scalability, maintainability and engineering productivity while managing the risks associated with modernizing established enterprise applications.
  • Champion secure and compliant engineering practices appropriate for financial-services applications, including secure design, protection of sensitive customer information, access control, auditability and resilient production operation.
  • Partner with Product Management and Architecture to turn product strategy, client requirements and technical priorities for architectural decisions and realistic executable delivery plans.
  • Strengthen engineering quality and DevOps practices, including code reviews, automated unit and integration testing, CI/CD pipelines, observability, release automation, engineering metric4s and production monitoring.
  • Own service reliability and production health, ensuring teams proactively identify operational risks, investigate incidents and recurring defects, perform effective root-cause analysis and drive permanent corrective and preventive actions.
  • Coordinate delivery across multiple teams and dependencies, identifying risks early, removing blockers and ensuring cross-team changes are planned, tested and released safely.
  • Support client-driven development without compromising platform integrity, balancing strategic product investment, regulatory requirements, defects, technical debt and client commitments.
  • Drive continuous improvement using measurable engineering outcomes, improving predictability, quality, deployment effectiveness, defect prevention, system reliability and supportability rather than measuring success purely through feature output.
  • Promote responsible adoption of AI and engineering automation where it improves developer productivity and client experiences while maintaining appropriate security, governance and human oversight.
  • Communicate clearly with senior and cross-functional stakeholders, providing transparent views of delivery status, technical risks, production health, dependencies and trade-offs.

What you bring

Required qualifications

  • Proven experience leading software engineering teams responsible for complex, low latency, business-critical enterprise applications.
  • Experience developing wealth-management, brokerage, investment, banking or capital-markets platforms, particularly advisor-facing or investor-facing applications.
  • Experience managing applications operating within a regulated financial-services environment, with strong awareness of security, privacy, audit and operational-resilience expectations.
  • Strong demonstrated people leadership, including coaching engineers, developing technical leaders, setting performance expectations and building an accountable, inclusive engineering culture.
  • Broad understanding of the software development lifecycle, including architecture, software design, coding, testing, security, release management, observability and production support.
  • Coming from a software programmer background in the past with hands on experience in Java and any UI technologies, preferably Angular, in the past. Experience with mobile apps will be an advantage.
  • Experience managing customer-facing web applications and distributed enterprise systems, with a strong understanding of APIs, integrations, data flows and service dependencies.
  • Experience with DevSecOps, CI/CD automation, observability, application-performance monitoring and enterprise incident-management practices.
  • Experience delivering software using Agile engineering practices and CI/CD, with the ability to improve delivery without sacrificing quality or operational control.
  • Strong understanding of production reliability and incident management, including root-cause analysis, defect prevention, observability and continuous improvement.
  • Demonstrated ability to manage technical debt and platform modernization alongside business delivery, making evidence-based decisions on when to modernize, refactor, replace or retain existing technology.
  • Strong stakeholder-management skills and the ability to explain complex technical issues, risks and architectural trade-offs to both technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Track record of improving software quality, security, resilience, engineering productivity and delivery predictability.

Preferred qualifications

  • Knowledge of wealth-management workflows such as account servicing, portfolio views, order entry and trading, reporting, entitlements and advisor/client digital experiences.
  • Experience with cloud technologies, distributed architectures, REST APIs, integration platforms and event-driven systems.
  • Experience modernizing large-scale or long-lived applications while maintaining service continuity for existing clients.
  • Experience incorporating AI-assisted development or AI-enabled product capabilities within an appropriate security and governance framework.
  • Experience building software in fintech or another regulated field.

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
