Delivery Manager - Platform and Product Engineering

Who we are…

At TSYS, we’re building the future of payments. As a member of the platform and product engineering and modernization group, you will be part of the team that’s passionate about technology and about modernizing the payments landscape. We leverage technology in completely new ways to construct fully automated financial platforms that live in the cloud and take advantage of the latest machine learning, mobile, IoT and advanced capabilities. In fact, we’re the engine behind many of the world’s largest financial brands, with award winning platforms that provide service to millions of customers, every single day..

As an Associate Director, Engineering your responsibilities will include….

Leading people and teams by supporting their development, managing various innovation initiatives and providing technical direction across a diverse team of 8-12 product engineers, technical analysts and automation engineers. You’ll need the ability to dive deep, and have a “hands on” approach to the team and the underlying technology stack. You’ll also need to have familiarity with open technologies and modern architectural approaches. You’ll lead in an agile environment where leaders typically focus 20-30% of their time building a positive, energetic culture to keep momentum moving in a positive direction.

You’re someone who wants to influence your own development. You’re not intimidated by technology, you know how to leverage it and partner with technical experts to build great products. You know what to do to make things happen. Your skills are broad – business, technology, user experience, leadership – and you easily transition between those regularly. You like to leverage modern tools, and a simple but organized process to keep the teams and stakeholders on track and in-line with organizational business and technical objectives. You’re also comfortable in a role where you transition seamlessly between managerial activities and low level technical details, at times dropping into code to help the team meet its objectives while also keeping your skill-set sharp. Some other things we’ll expect:

Experience working on large-scale, high volume applications

Experience with contact center solutions and modern approaches in building efficient and cost effective products

Rapid personal pace with ability to deliver and drive results

Deep understanding of software quality and what it takes to construct resilient and impactful solutions

Strong mentoring capability and communication – both verbal and written

Ability to recruit people, screen candidates and be selective

Active involvement in setting technical and product strategy

Passion to build strong, self-sustaining engineering teams

Energetic, open and collaborative across all teams and roles

Ability to practice servant leadership which is key to our success and culture

To qualify, you’ll need to have:

Highly Preferred

Bachelor's degree or equivalent in computer science, information technology or business information systems or related field

Extensive “full stack” software delivery experience (10 years or more) across multiple disciplines – hands-on development , Leading medium to large projects, understanding of infrastructure architecture, experience in agile development, DevOps and project management..

5 or more years experience in a technology focused managerial role with very clear leadership attributes – ability to set direction, grow team members, set goals, prioritize and recruit talent, among others.

Heavy exposure and implementation experience in modern technology, architecture and automation patterns.

Experience and extensive knowledge in contact center solutions is a Plus.

AWS and/or Kubernetes certifications is a Plus.

High level knowledge and experience in risk management is a Plus.

Fluent, open communication style – speaking, writing, collaborating

What’s it like to work in our Team?

Our Platform and Product engineering is a team of advanced technical experts in a variety of fields who work together to incubate new capabilities in a rapid, prototype-oriented environment that emphasizes “product over process”. We’re huge advocates of open source and as a member of the Digital innovation team, you’ll not only work on innovative user experiences, massive data sets and infrastructure at scale, but you’ll also be working with a team of people who represent some of the best and brightest minds in payments. We have a growth culture that emphasizes learning and adoption of technologies that push the envelope, plus an open work environment that emphasizes collaboration across teams. Like what you see?
