About The Position

As a Consultant II on the AffinityEdge team, you’ll play a key role in delivering successful core banking and card conversion projects for our clients. In this client-facing position, you will collaborate closely with financial institutions and cross-functional FIS teams to support new acquisitions, system conversions, and merge initiatives. In a typical project, you will take ownership of translating client data and business requirements into actionable technical solutions. This includes leading data mapping efforts from the source banking core into AffinityEdge and developing detailed coding specifications used by development teams to build conversion programs. You will serve as a subject matter expert for your assigned application—whether EFT/Card, General Ledger, or AffinityEdge Security—guiding clients through design decisions, validating requirements, and ensuring alignment throughout the project lifecycle. From initial discovery through testing, conversion, and go-live, you will represent your application area and be accountable for delivering accurate, high-quality outcomes. Whether supporting a full core conversion or a card reissue event, your work directly contributes to a seamless transition and a successful client experience. This is a full-time position with a required hybrid schedule in our Jacksonville or Milwaukee location. You’ll be joining a highly collaborative AffinityEdge Implementations team focused on delivering complex core banking and card conversion projects for financial institutions across the country. Our team partners closely with clients, project managers, developers, and product specialists to guide institutions through acquisitions, system conversions, and go-live events with confidence and precision. This is a results-driven, supportive team that values knowledge sharing, attention to detail, and ownership. With a strong pipeline of upcoming conversions and opportunities for growth, you’ll have the chance to build deep expertise, make a direct client impact, and contribute to successful, high-visibility projects.
