Infrastructure Engineer for the Cleanroom (Ransomware Recovery)

The Infrastructure Engineer for the cleanroom (Ransomware Recovery) environment will work within the Engineering & Enterprise Tech, Storage Services team. You will be involved in supporting, designing, implementing, automating, and testing IT infrastructure components and technical applications. The focus is on rapidly evolving services for protection and recovery against ransomware.

You will deliver and maintain a largely autonomous environment that, in the event of a successful ransomware attack on the bank, quickly restores multiple affected systems to isolated environments. Here, they can be analyzed, cleaned of malware, and quickly restored to production environments. Your area of responsibility includes protecting and recovering both application data and infrastructure configuration data. Advanced technology, security, and extensive automation will be key elements of your work.

The environment you build is the last resort for Rabobank systems in the event of a ransomware attack. The nature of the cleanroom environment means you must be versatile and well-informed about multiple supporting technologies.

Key Areas of Responsibility

As an Infrastructure Engineer in the cleanroom (Ransomware Recovery) environment, you will be actively involved in infrastructure improvements and new developments in infrastructure security, recovery, and automation. You will take responsibility for supporting, developing, and optimizing security and recovery for our compute, converged, storage, backup, and archiving environments with 21,000 VMs and nearly 20 PB of data across Europe and North and South America. These systems host thousands of applications and millions of customers.

You will work in a multidisciplinary and international team and learn about multiple services within the department. You are responsible for the daily support of the cleanroom environment, including incident, problem, and change management. Additionally, you will also ensure that the systems comply with security standards.

You will become an experienced, versatile T-shaped engineer who collaborates with a small group of experts and builds an existing Clean Room for ransomware recovery. This environment can serve as an autonomous startup environment to rebuild components of the bank. Solutions will be practical, well-founded, and high-performing. You will engineer and support the Clean Room. Technology will be relevant at scale and in smaller regional offices with their own IT.

It is important that you focus on delivering a working, tangible solution that can be improved and adjusted over time. As a self-starter, you will be part of a close-knit team where components must work effectively together. You will immediately add significant value to the team, but the scope of the role ensures that you will inevitably broaden your knowledge as you acquire new skills.

Key Performance Indicators

• Deadlines met according to the sprint planning
• Success of implemented technology
• Service availability
• Lifecycle management and resolution regarding vulnerability management within the cleanroom
• Uptime
