NRB is a 3,670-person Belgian IT services operator with €638M in annual revenue, ranking top 3 in the country's ICT sector. Their hiring surge (69 roles posted in 30 days) concentrates in engineering and data, while active projects reveal a shift from legacy modernization toward cloud infrastructure and AI tooling—adopting Kubernetes, Docker, and GitHub Copilot, with a dedicated M365 Copilot integration platform in flight. The pain-point mix (legacy migration, data security compliance, ITSM platform evolution) signals a services provider managing heavy technical debt while pushing clients through cloud and AI adoption cycles.
