FICO (NYSE: FICO) is a leading global analytics software company, helping businesses in 100+ countries make better decisions. Join our world-class team today and fulfill your career potential!

The Opportunity

Join FICO’s platform engineering team to architect and operate the AI/ML infrastructure powering FICO Assistant — our client-facing AI product serving financial institutions across APAC, EMEA, and North America. You’ll own production AI/ML systems end-to-end: model serving, training pipelines, vector search, cloud databases, and 24x7 operational support.

What You’ll Contribute

• Design and maintain internal tooling, automation frameworks, and platform services using Java and Python.

• Architect and manage database platforms (MySQL, AWS RDS, NoSQL) with a focus on high availability, disaster recovery, and performance at scale.

• Build CI/CD pipelines that automate schema changes, application deployments, and infrastructure provisioning using Jenkins, Bitbucket Pipelines, and GitOps workflows.

• Monitor, tune, and optimize database performance — including query optimization, indexing, replication health, and capacity planning.

• Manage Infrastructure as Code (CloudFormation, Terraform, Ansible) to support consistent and scalable provisioning across environments.

• Design and support containerized workloads on Kubernetes (EKS), bridging application teams and the infrastructure that serves them.

• Own database change delivery and promotion across environments with zero-tolerance for production risk.

• Apply AI-assisted development tools for debugging, code generation, automation, and root-cause analysis across the full stack.

• Collaborate across engineering, DevOps, and DBA teams on architectural decisions spanning application design, data platform strategy, and operational excellence.

What We’re Seeking

• Hands-on software development experience in Java and Python — building production-quality tooling and platform services, not just scripting.

• Production experience with relational databases (MySQL, AWS RDS) — including performance tuning, query optimization, replication, backup/restore, and patching.

• Hands-on experience with the AWS ecosystem (EC2, ECS, RDS, S3, Lambda, CloudWatch, IAM, VPC) and IaC tools (CloudFormation, Terraform, Ansible).

• Experience with CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins, Bitbucket Pipelines) and container orchestration (Docker, ECS, Kubernetes/EKS).

• Strong networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, DNS, HTTP/S, load balancers, security groups) as applied to application and database connectivity.

• Familiarity with developer frameworks (Spring Boot, microservices, API design), Git-based version control, and Bash/Python scripting for automation.

• Demonstrated fluency with AI-assisted development tools for debugging, code generation, and accelerating problem-solving at scale.

• Proven ability to collaborate across engineering, DevOps, and DBA teams with working knowledge of ITIL practices and service management tools (ServiceNow).

• Available 11 AM – 8 PM Mexico Time Zone (weekdays), rotating alternate weekend on-call, supporting a 24x7 follow-the-sun client-facing AI product.

Our Offer to You

• An inclusive culture strongly reflecting our core values: Act Like an Owner, Delight Our Customers and Earn the Respect of Others.

• The opportunity to make an impact and develop professionally by leveraging your unique strengths and participating in valuable learning experiences.

• Highly competitive compensation, benefits and rewards programs that encourage you to bring your best every day and be recognized for doing so.

• An engaging, people-first work environment offering work/life balance, employee resource groups, and social events to promote interaction and camaraderie.
