Wat ga je doen?

Join our Marketing & Customer Cluster as a Backend Engineer! In this role, you are responsible for building new features and maintaining microservices for our Content Hub team. This Albert Heijn team plays a vital role in enhancing and expanding the Sitecore Content Hub Digital Asset Management solution, which enables the storage and management of content assets and all internal processes around content generation.

Your new team and office.
Together with your distributed team, consisting of DevOps Engineers, QA's, Solution Architect, Scrum Master, and Product Owner (PO), you will work on inspiring initiatives to accelerate our transition into a hybrid Food & Tech company. We want to leverage data and technology to future-proof food shopping and give our customers accessibility to healthy food more easily available for everyone. At Albert Heijn, you team up with inspiring peers in the data, digital and tech domains. A community of diverse individuals who share a common goal; to create digital solutions that make (online) shopping simpler and more inspiring. Are you ready to reinvent the way millions of people buy and enjoy their food? We invest heavily in data, digital and tech. And that includes investing in your career! Our teams work in a hybrid way: both from home as well as in the office. We are located right next to the train station of Zaandam.    
   
The recipe for maximum impact.
We think it is important to be part of a high-belonging team; a team where you can be yourself and feel safe, accepted and appreciated. For this job we are preferably looking for someone who brings diversity in our team, in the widest possible sense. Someone who is a great addition to our team by bringing other ideas to the table. Don’t check all the boxes? Don’t worry, we probably don’t either 😉. Don’t hesitate to apply if you think you are up for the challenge, we’re happy to have a look at your resume!
