What you'll do

  • Coordinate release schedules across ALS development, testing, infrastructure and business teams.
  • Plan and orchestrate SIT, UAT, Pre-Production and Production deployment activities.
  • Manage ALS upgrades, patches and vendor (FIS) releases.
  • Ensure regulatory and compliance-related changes are delivered on schedule.
  • Coordinate change across ALS modules: Loan Origination, Credit Administration, Commercial Lending, Loan Servicing, and interfaces with Core Banking and Treasury systems.
  • Collaborate with FIS/vendor support teams, business SMEs, testing teams and infrastructure teams.
  • Manage code promotion, environment readiness and cut-over planning.
  • Act as the bridge between Product Management, Product Owners, Scrum Teams, business users and leadership.
  • Track dependencies, risks and readiness across the release train; represent changes at change-approval forums (CAB).

What we're looking for

  • Strong mainframe skills — COBOL, JCL, CICS, DB2 (and ideally Coolgen / IEF, the technology underpinning ALS).
  • Experience coordinating releases across dev, test, infrastructure and business teams.
  • Hands-on planning of SIT / UAT / Pre-Prod / Production deployments and cut-over.
  • Exposure to FIS ALS or a comparable lending / core-banking platform.
  • Change and configuration management (e.g. Endevor / Changeman), scheduling (Control-M / CA7), Connect:Direct.
  • Comfortable managing tiered environments (Dev / Test / UAT / Pre-Prod / Production / DR).
  • EU/EEA citizenship or existing, unrestricted right to work in the EU — no visa sponsorship is provided.

Nice to have

  • Release Train Engineer experience in a SAFe / Agile environment (PI planning, scrum-of-scrums).
  • Lending domain knowledge (loan origination, servicing, commercial lending, credit).
  • Experience with vendor release cycles and patch management on a packaged banking product.
  • Core Banking and Treasury interface integration experience.

Benefits

  • Long-term engagement on a high-visibility lending transformation.
  • Fully remote - nearshore working.
  • Competitive day rate (aligned to channel and discussed on application).
