Senior Operations Engineer

Design and operate a stable and reliable investment platform that supports millions of transactions in a complex, regulated environment.

You & your role

Ensure operational stability and continuous improvement of the investment platform by working across development and operations. As Senior Operations Engineer, you take ownership of reliability, automation, and cloud operations while collaborating closely with engineers on backend and serverless services. You work in a small, multidisciplinary team with short communication lines and shared responsibility.

Examples from practice

• Improving platform reliability by automating deployment pipelines in a cloud-native environment.
• Resolving incidents using metrics, logging, and tracing while preventing structural issues.
• Supporting backend and serverless services to ensure secure and scalable investment operations.

Rabobank has a strong security policy that is regularly updated to ensure compliance with these high standards. The Ops Engineer is responsible for ensuring that the environment meets all of these strict requirements, including release management, managing user policies, and incident management.

Top 3 responsibilities

1. Ensure the reliability and stability of the application landscape within the investment domain, with a strong focus on availability, performance, and resilience.
2. Develop, maintain, and enhance backend and cloud-native services, including Spring Boot (Kotlin) applications and serverless solutions such as Azure Durable Functions (TypeScript).
3. Take ownership of operational excellence and CI/CD processes, including monitoring, incident management, and continuous improvement of deployment pipelines.

In addition to these core responsibilities, you are responsible for operating and optimizing services running on Microsoft Azure, ensuring they are scalable, secure, and future-proof. You actively monitor platform health using metrics, logging, and tracing, and respond proactively to incidents as well as underlying structural issues. You work closely within a compact, multidisciplinary team with shared ownership and short communication lines. As part of this collaboration, you identify and implement opportunities to automate operational tasks, deployments, and platform improvements to increase efficiency and quality. Finally, you continuously learn and stay up to date by exploring and adopting new tools, technologies, and best practices across cloud, infrastructure, and software development.

Together we achieve more than alone

“Working in a small team gives you real ownership and the freedom to improve our platform every day.”
