Flavia en Vijai

What if, as an IT professional or engineer, you’re eager to learn something new every day? And thrive on tackling fresh, exciting challenges? Then NN Group is the place to be, say Flavia and Vijai. As product owner and principal engineer, they had the unique opportunity to establish a brand-new innovation team, driving progress within the organisation. Their mission? To enable NN’s engineers to work more efficiently – and enjoyably. How? Full of enthusiasm, they tell us how they do this.

NN refers to its employees as ‘supporters of change’. How do you make change happen? 
Flavia: “At NN, we believe that technology is the driving force behind positive change. ‘Make change work’ means using technology to create real impact. We’re constantly searching for innovative solutions that enhance our customers’ lives. A great example of this is our Internal Developer Platform.”

Vijai: “Precisely. As supporters of change, we don’t just advance technology – we support the people who make that progress possible. Our Internal Developer Platform is designed to enhance the engineering experience with paved roads and an infrastructure app store. Working with modern cloud-native technologies that align with our standards becomes a breeze. We offer an integrated experience, allowing NN engineers and teams to work in a state of flow, focusing on what their customers truly need. By reducing the cognitive load, we ensure teams don’t have to keep reinventing the wheel.”

What makes NN an attractive workplace for tech and digital product talent?
Vijai: “NN fosters a trust-based work environment where we have the freedom to experiment and innovate. Our management has created an environment in which the shared vision and direction are clear. As a result, we have the space to apply our talent and passion to achieve the right outcome in our own way. We love building teams with people who are not just skilled in their field but also great to collaborate with. The more diverse, the better – different perspectives help create a more complete picture.”

Flavia: “Beyond that, we invest in the professional growth of our employees. The NN Guilds are communities where engineers, designers, and product owners strengthen each other, share knowledge and deepen their expertise. Plus, you get the chance to work on challenging projects like our Internal Developer Platform, which will take your skills to the next level. Another big plus is our company culture when it comes to work-life balance. We allow flexibility, so that everyone can structure their week in a way that suits their personal circumstances.”

What would you say to someone considering a role at NN?
Flavia: “If you’re passionate about technology and want to make an impact, NN is the place for you. Here, you get to be part of a team that genuinely makes a difference in the world. We are committed to ensuring our engineers are happy because we believe that when our engineers thrive, so do our customers.”

Vijai: “Together, we can shape the future and push back technological boundaries – and we do so with a big smile. We start each day full of energy, solve complex puzzles and make change happen.”
