Confirmed on the employer's own hiring board on Nov 13, 2026. First seen by Alion on Nov 10, 2026. Danske Bank scores A on the Alion truth index.
The Developer Experience tribe at Danske Bank is looking for a Senior Platform Engineer (DevOps) to join the Developer Tooling & Governance squad. Your work will shape how thousands of engineers build software every day, from their local setup to the tools they depend on. You will gain broad ownership across a modern, automation-first engineering scope.
Do you get excited about removing friction from a developer's day? Do you want to help shape how AI-assisted development tools are rolled out safely and at scale across a large organisation? If you enjoy building and introducing new features and solutions, automating away manual work and are just as comfortable writing production code as you are shaping a technical direction, this role is for you.
Joining us means taking ownership of a broad engineering scope. It runs from the local development experience and the tooling lifecycle to the automation and governance that keep our developer ecosystem running at scale.
What you will be doing
The Developer Tooling & Governance squad provides and manages standard development tools and services for the entire engineering organisation, ranging from IDEs and the JetBrains suite to Docker, language runtimes and mobile app store platforms. The squad builds security and compliance into everyday developer workflows, replaces manual processes with automated setups, and governs tooling and licences centrally. You will work closely with engineers across the organisation and collaborate with stakeholders to shape technical direction, including the responsible adoption of AI-assisted development.
More specifically, you will:
- Design and build internal tools and automations that simplify developer onboarding and licence provisioning
- Build and evolve standardised local development setups with security and compliance built in from day one
- Develop observability solutions that give real-time visibility into tool adoption and licence utilisation
- Maintain automated vulnerability management and platform update workflows to keep the tool stack secure
- Integrate AI coding tools into the governed tooling stack and contribute to the squad's technical direction
- Review code and guide engineering decisions, ensuring solutions are maintainable and well designed
- Engage with developers to uncover friction points and translate them into tooling improvements
About you
At least 5 years of experience as a Platform, DevOps or Software Engineer with a focus on tooling and automation
Strong software engineering fundamentals: clean code, design patterns, and thoughtful code review

Experience with CI/CD pipelines and GitOps practices such as GitHub Actions or Azure DevOps
Experience with container platforms (Kubernetes or OpenShift) and cloud environments, preferably AWS
Familiarity with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) and a track record of building automation at scale
- A track record of building automation at scale: solutions that eliminate recurring manual effort, not one-off fixes
- Ability to work with evolving requirements: self-directed, structured, and able to turn ambiguous problems into concrete outcomes
Clear communicator with good written and spoken English
Experience with developer tool management such as packaging, licence management or patching is an advantage. A genuine curiosity about agentic AI and applying LLMs to automate complex engineering workflows would complement the team well.
