BRD is a systemically important bank in Romania with 2.3 million customers across retail, SME, corporate, and investment banking lines. The tech stack is enterprise-heavy (Java, Spring ecosystem, Oracle, WebSphere, WebLogic, Kubernetes on OpenShift) and mid-seniority hiring is accelerating, concentrated in engineering and finance roles — a pattern consistent with modernizing legacy banking systems and tightening credit risk controls. Active projects cluster around credit scoring, model validation, and regulatory compliance (IFRS9, IRB), while pain points center on cross-border payment delays and scoring engine integration.

Core business lines are retail and SME banking, large corporate and investment banking, and a supporting financial group offering asset management, consumer loans, leasing, and pensions and insurance products through specialized subsidiaries.
