PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

Our partner, ABN AMRO Clearing, is a global leader in the domain of clearing, offering access to a wide range of listed instruments on markets across the globe.

Their presence in important financial centers like Amsterdam, Chicago, Sydney, Singapore, Tokyo Hong Kong, London, Sao Paulo, Frankfurt and Iasi, allows them to effectively serve clients worldwide and maintain close proximity to their diverse customer base.

THE ROLE INVOLVES:

As we are migrating all risk management related applications from a bare metal infrastructure (legacy applications) and a transitional platform (cloud native applications) to our new on-premise OpenShift Container Platform, we are looking for a DevOps Engineer who will help us making this an efficient and successful journey.

Our applications and processes need to be fit for public cloud in the long run. The aim is to improve flexibility and resilience from an engineering perspective and improve the time to market for our customers.

As a member of the application team, responsible for the application migration, you will help improving CI/CD pipelines and software automation and give advice on adjusting legacy and building cloud native applications. 

Next to the hands-on OpenShift migration work, you advise on future directions towards AWS public cloud as well. 

You work closely together with the Platform and Infra teams, set application requirements, design tests and play a prominent role in the platform acceptance and application on-boarding process.

Responsibilities:

• Migrate applications to OpenShift Container platform
• Improve CI/CD pipelines
• Collaborate with developers on software requirements
• Encourage and build automated processes wherever possible
• React quickly to feedback to continuously improve processes
• Informally train and share your DevOps knowledge within the teams

  • creating Docker containers

• Knowledge of best practices and IT operations in always-availability services

NICE TO HAVE: 

• Experience in software development and infrastructure development is a plus
• Experience working with AWS cloud (deploy, manage, maintain) is highly appreciated; preferably AWS certified
