SBAB is a state-owned Swedish bank operating entirely via phone and web since 1996, offering loans and savings products to individuals, housing cooperatives, and businesses. The tech stack—Python, Java, Kotlin, React, TypeScript, Kafka, and AWS—reflects a modern polyglot architecture built for digital-first operations. Heavy hiring in engineering and data roles around risk modeling, security, and cloud migration signals an active overhaul: replacing legacy infrastructure with cloud-native systems (AWS adoption), overhauling risk governance frameworks (PD/LGD models, compliance), and hardening identity and incident detection.
