DevOps Engineer - Asset Finance EPT

As a DevOps Engineer within the Asset Finance EPT (Empowered Product Team) at NN Bank, you will play a key role in shaping the technology landscape of a financial institution that has recently undergone an exciting digital transformation. You will use your passion for automation and reliability engineering to support our Asset Finance professionals and help deliver high quality services to our customers and investors.

The Asset Finance team is the business owner of the Originate-to-Distribute (OtD) capabilities, including mortgage allocation, fulfilment monitoring, and investor servicing, with Mortgages acting as the originating domain. OtD is one of the strategic focus areas of NN Bank, and your work will directly contribute to its success by ensuring robust, automated, and well controlled IT solutions.

You will work on Asset Finance applications and processes that enable straight-through processing, timely and accurate investor reporting, and high data quality, all essential to operating a scalable and professional Originate-to-Distribute (OtD) business. This role is ideal for a DevOps Engineer who enjoys working close to the business, understands financial data flows, and takes ownership of stability, controls, and reliability in a regulated environment.

Why is this role unique?

• Direct impact on NN Bank's funding and investor reporting
• Combination of DevOps, data, and financial processes
• High ownership in a strategic OtD domain

• Managing the applications
