Are you curious, motivated, and forward-thinking? At FIS you’ll have the opportunity to work on some of the most challenging and relevant issues in financial services and technology. Our talented people empower us, and we believe in being part of a team that is open, collaborative, entrepreneurial, passionate and above all fun.
About the team:
You will be joining FIS' Non-Functional Engineering (NFE) team, the group accountable for the performance, scalability and resilience of the OPF payments product line. Operating globally across EMEA, the US, APAC and India, we define and validate the non-functional requirements behind mission-critical payment platforms, engineer the load, stress and endurance testing that proves them, and translate measured evidence into tuning, sizing and architecture decisions. Our purpose is straightforward: ensure FIS products are fast, predictable and resilient at real production scale, long before a customer ever feels a bottleneck.
As a Software Architect, you will own the deep technical analysis that explains how our payment platforms behave under load and, more importantly, how to make them significantly faster.
You will profile running systems, dissect their runtime behaviour and challenge design decisions, working shoulder to shoulder with the engineers who build the product.
You will not simply report findings; you will prototype, measure and prove the optimisations that turn them into quantifiable gains in throughput, latency and cost.
This role will suit someone with a developer mindset, who enjoys reading code as much as reading metrics.
