This is a hands-on engineering role focused on building, enhancing, and maintaining critical banking logic directly within the core platform.

- Ensure high performance, scalability, and stability of core banking applications.
- Maintain and integrate application components within the broader core banking ecosystem.
- Collaborate with integration and front-end teams where necessary, while retaining ownership of core logic.
- Support core banking implementation initiatives such as system upgrades, data conversions, and enhancements.
- Provide technical guidance on platform capabilities, limitations, and best practices to stakeholders.
- Troubleshoot production issues and optimize system performance within the core environment.
QUALIFICATIONS:
- 7–10+ years of experience in core banking development with strong hands-on expertise in Profile platform environments.
- Deep proficiency in PSL (Profile Scripting Language) and MUMPS-based development.
- Strong experience building and maintaining core banking logic directly within a Profile-based system.
- Solid understanding of banking products, workflows, and transaction processing systems.
- Knowledge of GT.M (NoSQL database) or similar core banking data environments.
- Exposure to integration technologies such as Java, Spring, APIs, or service-based architectures is a plus.
- Experience working on large-scale core banking implementations, upgrades, or modernization initiatives.
- Strong analytical, debugging, and performance optimization skills.
SALARY AND OTHER COMPENSATION:
The hourly salary for this position is between $113,000 - 132,500 depending on experience and other qualifications of the successful candidate.
This position is also eligible for Cognizant’s discretionary annual incentive program, based on performance and subject to the terms of Cognizant’s applicable plans.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding E-3 Visa Sponsorship in Banking
Verify your degree aligns with the role
U.S. consular officers require a direct link between your bachelor's degree field and the banking role. A finance or economics degree supports analyst and advisory roles cleanly; a general business degree may need a supporting credential evaluation for specialized positions.
Target banks with established LCA filing history
Large commercial banks, investment banks, and asset managers regularly file Labor Condition Applications with the DOL for Australian staff. Prioritise employers whose hiring managers already understand E-3 visa requirements, since you'll avoid educating them on the visa from scratch.
Request LCA filing before your start date
The LCA must be certified by the DOL before your consulate appointment, which typically takes seven business days. Ask your employer or HR contact to begin the LCA as soon as your offer letter is signed, not after your background check clears.
Use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service for the paperwork
Banking employers often have in-house counsel but limited E-3 experience. Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service handles the LCA, visa paperwork, and consulate preparation end-to-end, reducing back-and-forth with HR and keeping your start date on track.
Prepare AUSTRAC and compliance credentials for AML roles
If you're applying for anti-money laundering or compliance roles, document Australian regulatory experience explicitly. U.S. banking employers treat AUSTRAC familiarity and AML certification as directly transferable, which strengthens your specialty occupation case at the consulate.
Confirm your role title matches the LCA job classification
The job title on your offer letter should align with the Standard Occupational Classification the employer uses on the LCA. Mismatches between titles like 'Banking Associate' and the SOC code for financial analysts can trigger consular questions or DOL follow-up.
E-3 Visa Banking: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find banking jobs in the U.S. that offer E-3 visa sponsorship?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for Australian professionals searching for U.S. roles with E-3 sponsorship. Banking employers who have filed Labor Condition Applications before are far more likely to move quickly on an E-3 hire. Filtering by sponsorship history before you apply saves weeks of back-and-forth with HR teams unfamiliar with the visa.
How much does it cost to get an E-3 visa?
Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service covers the entire process for $499, including the Labor Condition Application, visa document preparation, and consulate appointment guidance. Traditional immigration lawyers charge $2,000–$5,000+ for the same work. The E-3 has less paperwork than most work visas, so paying thousands for legal help is usually unnecessary.
Do banking roles qualify as specialty occupations for the E-3 visa?
Yes, provided the role requires at least a bachelor's degree in a specific field, finance, economics, accounting, or a related discipline. Titles like financial analyst, investment banker, credit analyst, and compliance officer routinely meet this standard. General relationship manager roles with no degree requirement are harder to support and may face consular pushback.
How does the E-3 compare to H-1B for Australian banking professionals?
The E-3 has no lottery and no annual cap, so you can apply at any time of year once you have a job offer. H-1B registrations are submitted once a year in March, with selection by random draw. For banking professionals with a qualifying Australian degree and a U.S. offer in hand, the E-3 is a direct path that doesn't depend on lottery luck.
Can I switch banking employers while on an E-3 visa?
Yes, but the process restarts with the new employer. Your new employer must file a fresh LCA with the DOL and you'll need a new E-3 visa stamp at an Australian or third-country consulate before starting work, unless you're changing status inside the U.S. There's no portability provision like the one available under H-1B after 180 days.
