Job Summary
Division: Group Business Solutions
IT is at the heart of Euroclears business driving continuous innovation and delivering cost-efficient high-quality services to our customers. Today our core business runs on HP NonStop Servers (Tandem) with communications infrastructure and message routing implemented on Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Migrated services must be platform-independent capable of running on OpenShift Linux environments. This migration will be incremental and span several years.
