Universal retail and commercial bank serving 2M+ customers across Romania
Raiffeisen Bank Romania operates a full-service banking platform built on Java, Oracle, PostgreSQL, Kafka, and AWS — a mature enterprise stack typical of legacy financial institutions modernizing infrastructure. Active hiring is heavily sales-driven (44 roles) with minimal engineering (6), reflecting a retail-led growth strategy focused on portfolio expansion and compliance rather than platform innovation. Current priorities signal internal operational pressure: three separate projects address productivity gains via AI tooling, while regulatory compliance (MiFID II) and data pipeline optimization consume parallel engineering capacity.
Raiffeisen Bank Romania is a universal bank headquartered in Bucharest serving over 2 million customers — including 1.9 million individuals, 100,000 SMEs, and 5,600 corporations. The bank operates through 450+ physical branches nationwide alongside digital channels (mobile banking, internet banking, phone banking). Founded as a subsidiary of the Austrian Raiffeisen Group in 1997, it expanded through merger with Banca Agricolă Raiffeisen in 2002 and later acquired Citibank Romania's retail portfolio in 2013. The organization employs 5,001–10,000 people and distributes products through multiple channels: branch network, ATM/EPOS terminals, and three digital platforms.
Core stack includes Java, Oracle, PostgreSQL, Kafka, Kubernetes, Elasticsearch, and AWS. Data processing runs on Oracle Exadata and SQL Server; QA tooling spans Selenium, Playwright, and Postman.
Active projects include mobile banking expansion ('birourile mobile'), MiFID II compliance implementation, AI support tools for productivity, portfolio management and expansion, and personalized financial planning. Multiple initiatives target operational cost reduction.
