Join our team!

KBC Bank, the parent company of the Hungarian K&H Bank, provides banking services in 5 European countries. The international IT solutions of the banking group, covering several European countries, takes place with Hungarian and Belgian colleagues in Hungary and Belgium, therefore not only our services are international, but also our teams. Our responsibilities range from day-to-day operation to application development and its operation. We are constantly expanding the Hungarian side of the team, which is why we are looking for enthusiastic, motivated new employees with junior, medior or possibly senior work experience.
As a part of our team, you are responsible for the architectural decisions, engineering, integration and maintenance of the KBC cloud platform. Currently we actively manage AWS and Azure cloud environments and keep an eye on other cloud platforms. The focus is on technology and infrastructure services, not the development of applications on top of the cloud platform. The latter is handled by Dev Ops teams with whom you will be working closely. You assist in feasibility studies to take on new technological services or improvements and help design the services with focus on security, maintainability, flexibility and efficiency. You work together with architects and analysts to come to a proper final design, product owners and scrum masters to govern the exercise and its allocated resources, and software engineering to ensure effective positioning and service offerings. You maintain operational stability and efficiency in a production setting, and as such are able to rotate in the team to guarantee a 24/7 support. During the week (on call) and/or on the weekend work for releases (by exception – because we release during office hours). The regular working hours are flexible. The team you take part in delivers engineering and maintenance towards multiple business units and departments. As such, you will have to deal with multiple customer bases, each having their own set of requirements and time constraints. This also implies the processes such as incident, release management, disaster recovery. The scope of work can be volatile as this is a young platform in a highly evolving ecosystem.
