FIS ALS Techno-Functional Consultant
Location: Onsite/hybrid, Dublin, Ireland. Remote considered for candidates based elsewhere in Europe, subject to client approval.
Engagement: Contract, long-term
Day rate: [TBC — confirmed on application]
Right to work: Right to work in Ireland or the EU required. No sponsorship available on this engagement.
About the role
A techno-functional consultant is required to support and evolve a major bank lending platform built on FIS ALS, currently undergoing mainframe modernisation.
The role sits with the ALS development team. You will turn business need into specifications a mainframe developer can build from, and tests that prove the change behaved as specified. The work is inside the system: tracing why an account behaved as it did, identifying the parameter driving it, verifying overnight cycle output, and reconciling what ALS sends downstream against what arrives.
This is a hands-on technical role, not a coordination role.
Requirements
Essential skills
- Hands-on FIS ALS experience. This is a hard requirement and cannot be substituted by general lending experience.
- 8+ years' experience, the majority in mortgage or consumer lending — loan servicing, escrow, default management and collections.
- Working knowledge of the mainframe stack underpinning ALS: COBOL, JCL, DB2, CICS.
- Specification craft: Business Requirement Documents, Functional Requirement Documents, functional and technical specifications, acceptance criteria, current- and future-state process mapping.
- Requirements elicitation through workshops and stakeholder interviews.
- Ability to specify interfaces, batch processing, file-based feeds and data mapping between ALS, core banking and treasury systems.
- SQL and RDBMS concepts, sufficient to validate your own analysis.
- Experience delivering regulatory and compliance-driven lending change.
- Experience across tiered environments: Dev, Test, UAT, Pre-Production, Production and DR.
