Agentic SDLC Hub Engineer (the new Hub)

Rabobank bouwt aan de nieuwe Agentic SDLC Hub om te versnellen hoe software met AI wordt ontworpen, gebouwd, getest en beheerd. Dit is een transformatie-initiatief voor de hele bank, met de opdracht om vorm te geven aan hoe software wordt gebouwd in meer dan 1000 squads.

Driving the future of software delivery at Rabobank

We zoeken engineers die technische excellentie combineren met aanpassingsvermogen, samenwerking en een sterk gevoel van eigenaarschap. Deze kwaliteiten zijn essentieel om een ambitieuze visie om te zetten in echte verandering op schaal.

Who we’re looking for

Vasthoudende engineers met passie voor software engineering en vakmanschap, die gedreven zijn om impact te maken. Je bent een polyglot in mindset: je richt je op het oplossen van het probleem en beweegt je moeiteloos tussen tools, stacks en paradigma’s wanneer de missie daarom vraagt. Je maakt af waar je aan begint, floreert in ambiguïteit, past je aan wanneer prioriteiten verschuiven en houdt vol bij technische complexiteit. Je werk zal beïnvloeden hoe software binnen Rabobank wordt gebouwd.

Your mindset matters

Ben jij een ondernemende bouwer wiens ideeën gehoord moeten worden? In de Hub ondersteunt leiderschap snelle innovatie actief, neemt obstakels weg en creëert ruimte om te experimenteren, leren en leveren. Dit is een plek voor mensen die een nieuw engineeringmodel willen helpen definiëren, niet alleen eraan willen deelnemen.

What makes this role special

• Work in a hub designed for builders who want to shape the next era of software engineering.
• Freedom to experiment, learn and move fast—with visible leadership sponsorship.
• A chance to build reusable capabilities that can scale across 1000+ squads.
• We value curiosity, resilience, sharp engineering judgment and the courage to try new things.

A word of caution

We’re not just looking for GenAI enthusiasts—we’re looking for exceptional Engineers & Data Scientists. People who aim for excellence, thrive on solving tough challenges and know how to build from first principles. You should be excited by coding agents, but grounded in the engineering fundamentals needed to turn promise into production.

If your coding journey started before the rise of GenAI, you’ll feel right at home. We value engineers who understand the fundamentals, build across languages and frameworks, and bring side projects, prototypes or hobby builds that show real maker energy.

You and your job

We bouwen AI-gedreven agents en herbruikbare capabilities die bepalen hoe Rabobank-squads software ontwerpen, bouwen, testen en beheren. Als Agentic SDLC Engineer speel je een sleutelrol in de nieuwe Agentic SDLC Hub en help je definiëren hoe moderne software delivery eruitziet op enterprise-schaal.

Je neemt eigenaarschap over complexe GenAI- en agentarchitecturen, begeleidt technische beslissingen en helpt veelbelovende experimenten om te zetten in schaalbare bouwblokken die veel breder inzetbaar zijn dan binnen één team of use case.

Dit is een hands-on engineeringrol voor iemand die sterke softwarefundamenten combineert met een diepe interesse in GenAI, coding agents en snelle experimentatie — en die floreert in ambiguïteit, snelle feedbackloops en high-leverage delivery.

Je helpt standaarden te zetten voor agentontwerp, systeemintegratie en developer experience, terwijl je continu stuurt op eenvoud, snelheid en impact binnen een transformatie die de hele engineeringorganisatie raakt.

Practical examples

• Designing and building AI assistants and agents that improve backlog refinement, code generation, code review, testing and broader software delivery workflows
• Turning exploratory GenAI prototypes into robust, reusable building blocks that can scale across hundreds of teams
• Define and implement ways to track the value delivered across the SDLC by these agents.
• Coaching engineers on effective use of GenAI and coding agents in day-to-day software development
• Making architectural trade-offs between speed, cost, reliability, governance and scalability
• Improving developer experience by embedding agentic capabilities directly into existing tools, platforms and engineering workflows

You and your talent

Technical Leadership:

• Design and implement scalable GenAI systems and agent architectures
• Build production-ready GenAI services platforms, with an eye towards portability
• Lead solution design across APIs, event-driven systems and AI workflows
• Evaluate and select appropriate frameworks without over-reliance on abstractions
• Ensure performance, security and cost-effectiveness of GenAI workloads

Collaboration & Stakeholder Engagement:

• Collaborate with engineering, platform, product and business teams to translate opportunities into scalable technical capabilities.
• Collaborate on the design and rollout of AI workflows, including prompt engineering, orchestration, tooling and reusable context.
• Communicate technical concepts effectively to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Act as a trusted advisor on agentic engineering strategy, platform scalability and operational excellence.

Soft Skills & Leadership Qualities:

• You are relentless in getting things done, you don’t give up, you adapt & find another way to complete your assignment. Lead by example in problem-solving, adaptability & continuous improvement.
• Entrepreneurial mindset – you spot valuable opportunities, prototype fast and know how to build momentum around ideas that can change how teams work.
• Excellent communication skills – able to simplify complex ideas and build trust across teams. Foster collaboration and alignment across engineering and business teams.
• You combine technical depth with strong product intuition. You challenge solutions that are complex but low-impact, switch comfortably between languages and tools, and are comfortable making decisions with incomplete information — learning quickly through experimentation.

Required Qualifications:

• 5+ years in technical roles (DevOps, Software Engineering, ML Engineering, or Data Science).
• Proven end-to-end software engineering experience across the full lifecycle: from discovery and architecture through implementation, testing, deployment and production operations.
• Strong hands-on expertise with cloud platforms combined with DevOps practices, Infrastructure as Code (Terraform/Bicep), and an eye for portability across environments.
• Strong coding ability and the mindset of a polyglot engineer: you can solve problems across the full stack, move comfortably between languages, tools and system boundaries, and choose the right technology for the job.
• Proven experience with coding agents and agentic development tools in practice—whether in production, serious side projects or hobby builds—and a strong affinity for how they can transform software engineering.
• Ability to design and build products from scratch, turning ambiguous problems into working software that delivers value end to end.
• Experience bringing software into production in a secure, reliable and responsible way, with solid understanding of testing, deployment, runtime operations and production readiness.
• Security and observability awareness: best practices for monitoring, compliance, and reliability in AI systems.
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to mentor and lead technical teams, and to showcase your maker mindset through a hobby project, side build or prototype.
• Agile experience (SCRUM or Kanban) and strong collaboration across cross-functional teams.
