Senior Commercial Product Manager - AI

FIS Global•Atlanta, GA

About The Position

At FIS, our technology and our people are moving forward. We advance the way the world pays, banks and invests. We believe in building inclusive, diverse teams. Together, we innovate to help our colleagues, clients and communities succeed. If you’re ready to grow your career and make an impact in fintech, we have one question: Are you FIS? We are seeking a senior, highly technical product leader to drive the architectural vision and AI strategy across our Commercial Lending solutions. This role sits at the intersection of product management, solution architecture, data platforms, and applied AI. This leader will act as a Product Architect—responsible not just for what we build, but how our solutions are designed, integrated, and evolved across platforms. The role will play a critical part in aligning two products which will help shape our AI data strategy and enable scalable innovation through Snowflake, internal platforms, and third-party partnerships. This is not a traditional backlog-focused PM role. Success in this position requires deep technical fluency, system-level thinking, and the ability to partner closely with engineering, architecture, data, and AI teams.

Strong understanding of: Modern software architecture (cloud-native, microservices, APIs, event-driven systems)
Strong understanding of: Data platforms and analytics architectures (e.g., Snowflake or similar)
Strong understanding of: AI/ML concepts as applied to enterprise software (not model building, but applied architecture and data strategy)
Proven experience working deeply with engineering and architecture teams, with the ability to challenge and influence design decisions.

Experience with commercial lending, credit, or financial services platforms.
Background in platform product management or architecture-heavy product roles.
