About the team: Revenue Connect is FIS’s next-gen cloud platform reinventing commercial pricing and billing for banks of all sizes. We're building from the ground up using AWS, modern UI/UX patterns, and event-driven, API-first services to eliminate decades of technical debt and deliver the speed, accuracy, and transparency banks expect. As a Lead, you’ll be hands-on in designing, building, and operating core distributed services. You’ll contribute to AI-powered features, influence component level architecture within the team, mentor junior engineers, and help accelerate delivery as we extend into new deposit-core integrations and scale toward hundreds of financial institutions. In 2026, Revenue Connect is embedding AI throughout the product — from generative statement insights to anomaly detection and pricing optimization. You will implement and integrate these AI capabilities, advocate for safe and governed usage of models and data and help upskill the team in AI-accelerated engineering practices.
