The Mission

ING’s Payment and Settlement Services (“PSS”) aims to further mature, develop and expand ING’s state of the art payments platforms and settlements services. The PSS focusses on delivering payments and settlement services, meeting the expectations of ING’s business lines and beyond, whilst ensuring the basics: safe, secure, compliant, and reliable. The PSS is an independent unit within ING’s CTO domain, reporting directly into ING’s Chief Technology Officer.

The PSS is responsible for providing standardized payments and settlements services to multiple ING business lines (WB, Retail, and others). There is a clear ambition to also look for external commercialization of our payment platforms.

The PSS changes the organization towards a true Services-based organization and to deliver on ambitious promises, we have organized ourselves into a strong strategic and commercially focused organization around our eight services, where our squads working on those products are enabled by clear prioritization, accountability, and capabilities.

Within the True International Payments (TIP) domain , the Squad Master is responsible for maximizing the value delivered by the squad and ensuring alignment with customer needs, business priorities, regulatory requirements, and the strategic objectives of the TIP domain. The Squad Master determines what is being worked on within the squad in consultation with the Product Lead, decides the key priorities, and is responsible for meeting the agreed service and delivery KPI's. The role requires close collaboration with other CJEs, stakeholders, architects, engineers, and operations teams to ensure successful delivery of the domain objectives.
