The Mission

Touchpoint Platform is part of ING’s “Think Forward” strategy to become a truly global bank. It is a strategic program that aims to provide a globally scalable banking platform by simplifying and standardizing our banking applications and creating a modularly built system. 

As Service Mesh engineer you will work in a squad (named Helios) with 7-9 other engineers that have similar skills as you. Together you develop the Touchpoint Sidecar, a library which bootstraps the development journey to Touchpoint, built on top of Merak. In addition to that you will also work on the in-house built Service discovery solution based on Akka with Distributed data. 

The user base of the Service Discovery is spread globally and it is being used by 500+ teams. 
 
It is up to the squad to manage who takes part in discussions with users and stakeholders to come to concrete new features of your product. 

 
Sometimes users experience difficulties while integrating your product with their own solution. In such situations, your squad helps the user to tackle these issues. All squad members take part in this technical support towards users. 

Your day-to-day 

• Deliver high quality software that enables other teams to deliver their APIs better and faster

• Support users of your product when they have technical questions or experience issues

• Support more junior developers in creating better applications
