Live Jobs

At KBC, .NET and a number of other technologies are used to build non-critical, full stack web applications for in-house use by KBC employees across a very diverse set of domains (including insurance, asset management and IT). The past 15 years have seen the assembly of a portfolio which includes more than 100 applications, and these are now mainly running on on-premises servers. Since 2019-2020, we prefer to land new applications (currently developed with .NET Core and Vue.js) in Azure, using PAAS services as much as possible. Extensions for O365 and D365 which also use .NET have been landed in Azure since 2015.

.NET development within KBC is spread over a number of development teams and a supporting competence center (CC.NET). The development teams are responsible for developing and maintaining applications. The competence center (CC.NET) is responsible for providing guidelines and support in the fields of application architecture, patterns, templates, security and reusable components, as well as regarding the agile development process and the development infrastructure based on Azure DevOps. A transition towards GitHub Enterprise Cloud is foreseen in the near future. The .NET competence center works closely with the public cloud team responsible for guidelines, basic architecture, components and automatic provisioning (using Infrastructure as Code) for Azure services within KBC in general.
