National Bank has initiated its digital transformation with the objective of migrating almost all of its applications to AWS and automating most of these processes and manual activities.

Within the Infrastructure and Security Asset Operations and Delivery Sector, we are a DevOps group for the development and transformation of the National Bank, therefore very intrapreneurship-oriented and dynamic, where collective intelligence is at the heart of our actions!
