We’re looking for a proactive IT Developer to help us strengthen our IBM Mainframe (z/OS) and HP Nonstop platforms that support high-volume payments and interest rate processing.

You don’t need prior experience with Mainframe or HP Nonstop to apply. What’s most important to us is your willingness to learn, your curiosity and your drive to work with critical infrastructure in a fast-paced financial environment.

About this opoortunity

You’ll be joining our Front Office FX Systems team, responsible for systems that require extreme stability, security, and uptime. These platforms are the hidden engines behind our daily payment flows, interest calculations, and operational resilience. As the IT Developer in this area, you will work closely with both technology and business stakeholders to ensure our systems remain reliable, future-proof, and continuously improving.

• A team player who values stability, quality, and critical system thinking
  
• Open to learning new technologies, especially ones that few others master

Your background and skills include: 

• A degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or a related field
• You don’t need prior experience with Mainframe or HP Nonstop – but if you have it, that’s a big plus
• Experience working with business-critical systems or infrastructure is beneficial
• Strong analytical mindset and willingness to dig into complex system architecture

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.

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

Diversity and inclusion are a natural part of our daily work. We know that an inclusive workplace is a sustainable one. We genuinely believe that our diverse backgrounds, experiences, characteristics and traits make us stronger together. Every day we strive to find new ways to improve diversity and inclusion within our community e.g. we have signed the European Diversity Charters in the countries where we operate to show our commitment and engage with others to continue learning and improving.
