BNG is the fourth-largest bank in the Netherlands and is driven by social impact. Our focus is on providing financing that contributes to a more social, sustainable, and future-proof Netherlands.

Do you get excited about building a clear technical direction and safeguarding quality across the value chain? Do data-driven decisions, DevOps ways of working, and continuously improving platforms and processes energize you? Then the role of Back End DevOps Engineer within Funding & Investor Relations could be the right fit for you.

What will you be doing?

As a Back End DevOps Engineer, you will start in a T-shaped role within an Agile/DevOps team in Funding & Investor Relations. From your area of expertise, you will contribute broadly: you assess requirements, translate them into concrete solutions, and actively contribute to improving the IT landscape. In addition, you support the department by providing technical support.

Within the DevOps department, you help realize an efficient and reliable software delivery pipeline. This means you are involved in the development, integration, and management of technological solutions for business processes, and you assist in setting up and managing CI/CD pipelines. You focus on automating build, test, and deployment processes and apply Infrastructure as Code to ensure consistent environments. You also carry out IT processes, including monitoring and logging, incident and problem management, and integrating security and compliance into all processes (DevSecOps).

You also contribute to version and configuration management and work closely with IT Risk, Infrastructure, Architecture, and Security. You help the organization ensure scalability and system performance and, through documentation and knowledge sharing, maintain continuity and quality.

All of this is done in line with the objective of DevOps Funding & Investor Relations: we provide customers with loans at the most competitive rates, enabled by our efficient organization and funding costs. Managing the funding value chain—with attention to regulations, security, and robustness—is crucial every day for the operation of a secure BNG.

Specifically, you will be responsible for:

• setting up (Azure) infrastructure;
• keeping security up to date with the latest standards;
• setting up and expanding CI/CD pipelines;
• managing and maintaining Back Office and Front Office systems;
• defining requirements for new applications together with the business;
• validating solutions against the organization’s architectural principles.
