Assignment context and description of activities

The ABN AMRO app and Internet Banking website wouldn’t exist without the developers and engineers at our department, the Personal Banking grid, using their talent. We currently have 2 vacancies. One in a team responsible for the pension products on Internet Banking (web) and one in a team responsible for the security and onboarding journey of a customer in the ABN AMRO app (app). Both teams work on a FE and BFF (Back-end for Front-end) layer, with a lot of orchestration and aggregation taking place in the latter. Both teams face deadlines for bringing functional things live next year (e.g. a new proposition Fiscal Investments, or a device binding using an existing device) where a lot of changes are needed in BFF. Besides, there are various migrations that the teams are working on which also have big deadlines. For example, a migration from Digital Signing to Generic signing (web) or a device binding using an existing device (app). So, we could definitely use your help!   

At the Personal Banking grid, we believe in a DevOps way of working while focusing on solid principles that give teams a sense of autonomy and purpose in their job. We have adopted a hybrid model of working with 2-5 office days. Besides, we offer everyone the opportunity to get better and grow in their skills, love to share knowledge and challenge each other by for example; giving presentations, organising hackathons, potluck lunches, toasties on Wednesday and having live meetings together!
