We are looking for a Backend Engineer(Java) to strengthen our mortgage development teams.
ING is transforming rapidly towards a top-notch IT company with a Software Craftsmanship culture, incorporating FinTech start-up mentality and financial innovation. We are end-to-end agile, work in multidisciplinary teams and use cutting edge technology. This enables us to offer our customers the best possible service and respond to rapidly changing customer demands.
The Team
A mortgage is one of the most important financial decisions in the life of our customers. Our purpose: we offer customers financial and emotional stability when purchasing their dream house and offer a carefree living afterwards. We provide them with excellent advice and exceed customers and intermediary expectations.
You will be joining a pressure cooker project, with a lot of discovery work still to be done, so you can really make your mark. We have quite a few stakeholders, including an external partner, so great collaboration skills are required. As well as a drive to deliver the best customer experience we can. We need to disrupt the world of retrofitting in order to reach our sustainability targets, so good, is not good enough
Our back-end APIs are created with an internal Spring (Boot) based framework and run on virtualized hardware. To comply with our regulators demands, our release process can feel bureaucratic from time to time. This means that you need to be a quick learner to understand them, and you need to have the ambition to improve and automate as much as possible.
Roles & Responsibilities
You will be part of a squad: a self-managing, autonomous unit with end-to-end responsibility for a customer journey, e.g. the online scheduling of an appointment with a mortgage advisor, or interest rate adjustments and mortgage repayment
You will be involved in the whole development lifecycle, from refining user stories until monitoring software in production, where your main focus will be coding
You coach and help the team to the next level
You speak up and challenge decisions (you ask why things are done instead of just doing them
How to succeed
We hire smart people like you for your potential. Our biggest expectation is that you’ll stay curious. Keep learning. Take on responsibility. In return, we’ll back you to develop into an even more awesome version of yourself.
Minimum of 2+ years of work experience as a Java developer
Good understanding of micro-services architecture patterns
A minimum of 1+ years of experience in Maven and Spring (Boot)
Experience with CI/CD tooling (at least Git and Jenkins/Azure DevOps)
Affinity with Kafka
Experience with the Agile/Scrum/Kanban way of working
Proficient in English
You are open and you give & accept direct feedback
You have a focus on quality and challenge your colleagues (e.g. during peer reviews)
You have a strong interest and vision in recent trends in software development and technology in general. Ability to transfer this knowledge back to ING
