Join us in developing and maintaining Low Code solutions to help automate repetitive business processes, we saved over 3 million business hours in 2022. We are a very young and ambitious team with all the advantages of a big and professional department, but the freedom to fill in your own role.
You and your job
Your will work in a diverse and dynamic team works with the latest technologies that translate work in a way that a robot can take over. You dare to go against the grain and take Rabobank to 'The Next Level'. A responsibility with impact, which you shape as a Robotics Engineer where you work at the intersection of Business and IT. Your core task is to build automation solutions for various operational domains within Rabobank. We position these robots within the departments as "virtual colleagues" which enable us to make our organization more efficient for the short or long term, but also to relieve our colleagues of repetitive and sometimes frustrating work. This is how the Robotics team makes the work of our colleagues within the bank more fun! We are looking for candidates for these three teams.
Team Cyaan is a young team existing of 4 engineers and are responsible for the domain insurance, savings & investing.

The team mainly works from home and comes to the office at least once a week to work together, although you are free to come to the office more frequently.
Team Orange is an exciting team existing of 5 engineers and is responsible for the Fighting Economic Crime (FEC) domain within the Robotics CoE. We are looking for a team player who is excited to create new automation solutions in this dynamic domain which has grown a lot in the last couple of years (from tens of people to thousands now in 2023). Team Orange works in a hybrid fashion, mostly from home and gets together at least every other week at the office in Utrecht. The team also has a group of business analysts and functional maintenance who will support you in your role as an engineer and together with these colleagues you will build automation solutions that make an impact.

We value personal growth very much, so there will be plenty opportunity to grow in this role and since we are growing as department there will also be opportunities found there, but the initiative for this lies with yourself.
Fun & work
“Working as an Robotics Engineer is extremely varied and therefore never boring. On one assignment I am building a robot and on another assignment I am developing a power app to support the business in their daily work. That variety in work, the opportunity to develop yourself and also help determine what your next assignment will be, is why this is such a great position. I feel a lot of ownership of my projects and am proud when for example a new robot goes live.”
Written by Sander van Weerdenburg from the Robotics Center of Excellence
Together we achieve more than alone
Collaboration is an important topic within our team. With each other we join forces to build robots that enable our organization to create even more added value for the bank and thus be able to serve our customers even better. The team was founded 6 years ago and we have grown rapidly over the years and are still expanding. We have grown into a department of around 50 colleagues.
At this point we are looking for candidates with experience in RPA, however we have our own Robotics Academy to learn you all that is needed to start building as an Engineer within Rabobank. We believe in the power of differences. It is precisely by combining people's differences that we become an even better bank. We are therefore curious about what you have to offer to our Robotics department.The mission of the 50 people in the Robotics Center of Excellence is to make automation solutions to relieve other parts of the organization’s repetitive work. We work together in Agile teams to maximize the impact that we can make within Rabobank.
