• Drive the technical roadmap for AI & Automation, introducing new tools, methods, and technologies that help modernise Finance.
• Collaborate closely with analysts, data experts and other developers in Group Finance and Technology.

You will join a team of six, located across the Nordics and in Poland with a diverse skillset. The role is based in Helsinki, Finland.

You are an experienced engineer with a passion for solving real business problems through technology. You combine solid technical skills with curiosity, ownership, and the ability to work independently on complex topics.

To succeed in this role, we believe that you:

• Are self-driven and able to work independently, but also have keen interest and ability on sharing knowledge with others
• Are structured, proactive, and take responsibility for delivering high‑quality solutions.
• Are curious, focus on solutions rather than problems, and share our enthusiasm for developing and learning

Your experience and background:

• Strong technical skills with at least 5 years of experience in Python programming on an enterprise level
• Experience designing and maintaining production-grade systems
• Interest in using and developing AI in a regulated environment

It would be also ideal if you would have experience in:

• Cloud‑based development, orchestration, or containerized environments
• ML models and bespoke AI development

What we offer

Collaboration. Ownership. Passion. Courage. These are the values that guide us in how we work and how we make decisions – and that we imagine you share with us.

People are driven by many different factors. For some, it’s to take their career to the next level. For others, it’s to break new ground within their area of expertise – in other words, with us, you will always move forward.

A culture that fosters performance and growth in one of the largest Nordic banks, offering various opportunities to evolve, develop and learn from brilliant colleagues with diverse backgrounds in a vibrant working environment.

Hybrid working model – we believe in the value of bringing people together and at the same time we embrace the freedom of flexibility.
