About the team and the Transformation Program OLYMPUS:

The OLYMPUS project is a Finance Transformation program where we not only want to introduce cloud-based applications and infrastructure but also move to an agile way of working.

This is a completely new product that we have developed in a co-innovation project with SAPFioneer (FPSL) and is also being rolled out to many of our competitors in the insurance industry. Our goal is to improve our work for our customers every day.

The Derived Cashflows Squad is a small international development team responsible for multiple JAVA based micro-services operated on cloud and communicating with each other using Kafka streaming, ultimately feeding the SAP sub-ledger with inputs for financial closing.
