Full time.

This position is hybrid (3 days onsite) at our FIS Office locations in Jacksonville (FL), New York City (NY) & Milwaukee (WI).

About The Role And Team:
In this role, you will work directly under the mentorship of Lead Dev Ops/SRE Engineers to help transition our legacy Release Management practices into a state-of-the-art automated pipeline. You will gain hands-on experience with both Mainframe (Cobol, RPG) and server-based (Java, .NET) environments, playing a vital role in our journey toward application containerization and automated delivery. This is a unique opportunity to learn “Hybrid Dev Ops.”

While many roles focus solely on the cloud, you will become a rare specialist capable of managing the intersection of high-scale mainframe systems and modern containerized microservices. You will be mentored by industry veterans and given a clear roadmap for career progression into a SRE/Dev Ops Engineer role. This role is with our Horizon team.
