We are building an organisation and culture of highly autonomous product teams with the innovation power to give our customers the future of banking. We are looking for the right person to be a part of our journey and grow together with us.

SEBx is an autonomous part within SEB with the mission to challenge and explore both new technologies and new business opportunities. With this mission we challenge the conventional way of building financial services and even what a financial service is in itself. We are breaking ground into the future of the financial industry with our Banking as a Service offering.

• Developing and maintaining a scalable distributed platform for financial services
• Work in a long lived autonomous team with a clear product/service portfolio
• Full life cycle management for the product/service portfolio
• Constantly evaluate emerging technologies and services to stay relevant in our offering
• Drive innovation through technology and work with our product people to improve our platform

We believe you:

• Have experience working with distributed systems in a cloud environment
• Have experience working with high volume transactions in a regulated environment
• Thrive in an environment where knowledge sharing and mentoring is a natural part of day to day work
• Have experience from Java and Spring Boot framework or other DI frameworks and NoSql
• Have experience from Kafka, JUnit and Mockito
• Have seen the advantages of Continuous Delivery and know how to get there

Our tech stack is fully on GCP, with services mainly built in Java 11 and Java 17, currently high usage of GigaSpaces and we are exploring other stacks. We are using gRPC internally and exposing RestAPI externally.

We have our initial B2C products in GCP available for the public and we are about to release a whole set of new Banking as a Service (BaaS) products based on our Banking Platform.

What do you get in return:

This is a unique opportunity to be part of an exciting initiative that is extraordinary in its purpose and setup. A 160 year old bank with the mission to stay relevant for another 160 years. Your knowledge, personality and drive will be key for SEBx to succeed. You will be early on in this journey and will have the opportunity to influence the culture and WoW. We offer you the best from both the scale-up world and the big bank. Autonomy, speed and flexibility of a startup. Experience, safety and long term thinking of an incumbent bank. We offer a competitive compensation package with great pension and overall bank benefits!
