Job description

Are you passionate about bringing your talent into play in one of BEC's most important strategic tech initiatives? And would you like to work with the vocal point for BEC's and the bank's technological development over the next several years? If so, you should use your experience in a well-established full-service IT house and be part of one of the most exciting development trips within Platforms & Architecture for the Danish financial sector. In collaboration with several customers, BEC is developing a platform, based on Kafka, which will support the specific business needs of each bank.

For BEC, we are looking for an experienced and innovative Kafka Systems Engineer to contribute to the development and integration tasks on the Kafka platform. You will be part of an agile team responsible for maintaining a strategic integration platform to ensure that the platform is continuously being expanded with new capabilities to support business needs.

Help build and maintain an advanced customer platform

As a developer you will challenge and be challenged by your colleagues in creating and maintaining the event streaming platform based on Kafka to ensure the future success of BEC’s customers. We expect you to have a solid toolbox with some good results with Kafka application development.

Your primary tasks will be designing, implementing, and maintaining our Kafka platform. You will develop tools and procedures for monitoring, logging, and improve deployment. As a natural part of your work, you will need to prepare documentation for the use of Kafka, while supporting the rest of the organization in using the platform.

We use DDD (Domain Driven Design) for modeling, which is why you will also work closely with other development teams to implement this method in their work.

You are passionate about creating innovative and stable IT solutions. You think about scalability and operational stability. You will ensure that BEC, through extensions and configurations, can support the financial sector's business processes and what is technically possible.

You will work with a modern toolset, including technologies, methods and principles, such as:

• Apache Kafka, supported by Confluent
• CI / CD (continuous integration and continuous delivery)

Your profile

We imagine that you are trained and educated as an IT/software engineer. You may have worked with or used technologies such as K8s / OpenShift, Java and Jenkins/Argo CD.

Experience in running and maintaining a Kafka platform or event streaming applications is a plus.

You probably already have experience working in agile development teams. It is a plus if you have experience from the financial sector, telecom, pharma, or from a significant consultancy; however, this is not a requirement.

As a person, you are service-minded and accustomed to working with customers, partners, and colleagues. The ability to prioritize and meet deadlines related to ongoing deliveries and operations is an essential qualification for the role. You work well, independently and as part of a team, as well as having an analytical and structured approach to your work. You are fluent in English in writing and speaking.

You are offered an attractive job in a dynamic organization. The tone is informal, and you will work among professionals and quality-conscious colleagues in a team that needs your specific professional skills. BEC attaches great importance to knowledge sharing and learning, and to have fun while working. The industry, BEC, and this technology are evolving rapidly, so there will automatically be varying and challenging tasks that provide excellent opportunities for skills development. BEC ensures that you get a varied and challenging job. BEC also has a well-functioning staff association with an exciting selection of social gatherings and activities where, as an employee, you can network with each other outside the usual framework.
