Working at KPN

Freedom and responsibility in small, self-managing teams

KPN has various tech divisions that work closely with several business units within KPN. Every day, around 1,500 tech colleagues with more than 30 different nationalities work on creating the best digital experiences. As a developer you play a crucial role in our ambition to make technology interact better with people. We call this 'Humanising Technology'.

Despite our size, there is little hierarchy as we are organized in small, self-managing teams, mostly working in DevOps. This means a lot of freedom, but also a lot of responsibility. Together with your team you are responsible for improving an application or service and keeping it up and running.

You also bear your own responsibility to immerse yourself in our 'engineering culture' and to make time available to, for example, learn new technologies or to master them even better. We experiment, try and try again. Until it works. Making mistakes is allowed. In fact, that's part of it.

A selection of the 'Tech Stack' we work with: Artifactory, AWS, Azure, Azure DevOps, BitBucket, Blockchain, Django, Docker, Event Streaming, FastAPI, Flutter, Java, Javascript, Jenkins, Kafka, Kubernetes, Nuxt, Open Source projects, Prometheus, Python, RPA, Spring Boot and VueJS

Feel welcome to join our Developers Meet Up and meet our colleagues.
