By improving and automating everything we touch, we increase ING’s operational excellence and customer satisfaction across Financial Markets.
As part of the Proximity Hosting Solutions team, you will help deliver, maintain, automate, and support a high‑tech Market‑to‑Market, low‑latency connectivity platform used by DevOps teams and Financial Markets applications.
You will work on externally hosted (private cloud) infrastructure environments for Financial Markets — a fast-paced, complex, and continuously evolving area where quality and resilience are critical.
Our team manages the complete infrastructure hosted in Equinix Data Centres in Frankfurt and operated by Getronics. This environment supports critical Financial Markets platforms such as KDB, Ullink, MarketView, GEP, and Horizon—core systems enabling ING to conduct global trading activities, including on the Eurex Frankfurt Exchange.
As a DevOps Engineer, your mission is to ensure our platforms remain stable, automated, secure, and ready to scale. You will work according to modern Agile practices within a complex and high‑availability IT landscape.
