About The Team: Join the FIS Platforms team as a Principal Product Manager (Sr. Director) to help build and launch our next generation Embedded Finance Platform capabilities, focusing on card program management.

• Go-to-Market: Lead GTM strategy and implementation including collaboration with all internal GTM teams on pricing, distribution and marketing plans. Leads client engagements during business reviews, prospect briefings, and internal group meetings.

• Leadership Skills: Proven ability to lead and inspire cross-functional teams. Strong communication and interpersonal skills.
• Analytical Thinking: Demonstrated ability to think strategically and translate strategies into actionable plans.
• Innovative Mindset: A track record of innovation, creativity, and a willingness to challenge the status quo.
