Core banking platform with modular architecture for regional European banks
Finnova operates a 50-year-old core banking platform used across a regional customer base, built on a mature Java + Oracle + Kafka stack running on OpenShift and Kubernetes. Current hiring is concentrated in engineering and product (mid-level roles), with active projects focused on portfolio management integration and new banking applications—suggesting incremental modernization of the core rather than wholesale platform rebuild.
Finnova AG Bankware develops and operates core banking software for small-to-mid-market regional banks in Europe, with installations dating back to the 1970s. The platform supports end-to-end banking workflows across retail and commercial products, and customers can choose between on-premise, multi-tenant, or managed (BPO) deployment models. Finnova also provides advisory services and operates partnerships with hosting and infrastructure vendors to support customer installations.
Oracle database, Java, Kafka for messaging, PostgreSQL and MongoDB for data, Kubernetes/OpenShift for orchestration, and GitLab for CI/CD. SWIFT integration supports payment messaging.
