At ING, we're evolving our database landscape to support the future of digital banking. As we continue our journey towards cloud-based platforms, we're looking for a Senior Database Engineer who can bridge the gap between traditional database administration and modern cloud engineering.
This is a unique opportunity for an experienced SQL Server professional who is equally excited by the future of PostgreSQL and Azure. While you'll bring strong expertise in managing and optimising on-premises SQL Server environments, you'll also play a key role in helping ING expand its PostgreSQL capability and accelerate its cloud transformation journey.
Joining a highly collaborative Database Engineering team, you'll work closely with peers, technology leaders and delivery teams to build secure, resilient and scalable database platforms that support critical banking services. We're looking for someone with a growth mindset, strong operational skills and a passion for modern engineering practices, someone who enjoys learning, solving complex problems and helping shape the future of database technology at ING.
This role is ideal for a skilled SQL Server DBA who has already started their PostgreSQL and cloud journey, or someone eager to take the next step and become a key contributor to ING's modern database platform strategy
