APG is a €500B+ pension asset manager headquartered in the Netherlands, serving pension funds and their members across Europe. The tech stack is enterprise-heavy (Oracle, SQL Server, Azure, ServiceNow, Databricks) with active modernization: data lineage mapping, metadata strategy, and hub-spoke data architecture are live projects, while hiring skews heavily toward data roles (16 of 35 open positions). This mix signals a shift from siloed IT operations toward integrated data governance and audit-ready infrastructure—critical for a regulated pension provider navigating evolving compliance requirements.
