Launch your career as a Junior DevOps Engineer

Grow your skills during the Early Career Program IT at Rabobank. Discover your potential by working as a Junior DevOps Engineer at Tech4Ops, while combining hands-on experience with professional training.

You and your future

To become a specialist in your field, the Early Career Program IT offers a structured and supportive learning path. You’ll work four days a week as a Junior DevOps Engineer, and spend one day per week on training sessions focused on developing your technical and personal skills. These sessions are led by experienced colleagues or professional trainers with a proven track record. You’ll build a strong network, gain valuable experience, and develop skills that will benefit you throughout your career. After the 18-month program, our goal is to continue working with you at Rabobank.

Together with our customers, members, and partners, we work toward a world where everyone has access to healthy food. In the Netherlands, we aim to create a society where people are happy with how they live, work, and do business.

You’ll join Tribe Tech4Engineering, which provides comprehensive IT services to all Rabobank squads. Within this tribe, you’ll work in the Tech4Ops area, which focuses on (security) logging and monitoring. Our services include application monitoring and security detections.

“Tech4Ops is a group of open-minded people, always ready to support each other and live the Rabobank value: ‘I make you better!’ Our team is passionate about delivering value and demonstrates operational ownership in everything we do.”
Albert Wollaars Tech Lead Tech4Ops

We’re currently looking for two Junior DevOps Engineers to join two different squads, each with its own exciting challenges and opportunities:

  • Squad Tracer: Supports engineers in their daily IT operations through proactive monitoring and alerting services. You’ll grow your knowledge and experience in Observability and Incident Response Management (IRM).
  • Squad Haystack: Empowers other squads to make data-driven decisions by enabling them to collect, process, analyse, and visualize their data. You’ll deepen your knowledge and hands-on experience in log monitoring.

We’d love to hear about your preferences in your motivational letter and during the process, we’ll assess which squad would be the best fit for you.

Program Structure

  • 1 day per week: Training and personal development
  • 4 days per week: Hands-on experience with your squad

Your development as a young professional

This 18-month program offers you the opportunity to get to know yourself, the field, and Rabobank. You’ll start in a junior position within one team, participate in workshops and training modules with other juniors, and quickly gain practical experience. There’s room for creativity and initiative to organize events, training sessions, and knowledge-sharing moments. This way, we continuously improve the program—and ourselves. You’ll also build a large and valuable network within the bank.

Your development as a starter

In the Early Career Program IT, you’ll work on your personal development through themes such as personal leadership, sustainability, and understanding how a bank operates. You’ll choose one of the IT tracks that suits you and focus on the content of your role. You’ll meet fellow starters from different departments weekly, and on other days, you’ll work within your own team. Through business challenges and assignments, you’ll get to know a large part of the bank.

Learning from Each Other

At Rabobank, your development is our top priority. We believe the best way to learn is by doing—through both successes and mistakes. That’s why we offer the right balance between freedom and guidance. You’ll have the opportunity to:

  • Discover talents you didn’t know you had
  • Specialize in a professional field
  • Explore what you enjoy and excel at

Throughout the program, you’ll receive excellent supervision, work closely with experienced colleagues, and regularly connect with other young professionals.
