Your new team and office.
As Engineering Manager, you will join the Data Differentiation Platform (DDP) department, responsible for the Cloud, Data Platform, and Middleware & Scheduling services that support Albert Heijn, Etos, and Gall & Gall. Together with a peer Engineering Manager, you will lead eight engineering teams (around 50 SecDevOps Engineers) who develop and operate our data platform—the foundation for data-driven innovation across all our brands.

Your primary focus is to deliver high-quality, secure, and reliable platform capabilities, ensuring teams deliver predictably and continuously improve.
At Albert Heijn, you’ll work with inspiring peers in data, digital, and tech—a diverse community with a shared goal: making (online) shopping simpler and more inspiring. We invest heavily in technology and your career. Our teams work hybrid: from home and at our office next to Zaandam train station.
We value a high-belonging team where everyone feels safe, accepted, and appreciated. We especially welcome candidates who bring new perspectives and diversity to our team. Don’t check all the boxes? Neither do we 😉. If you’re up for the challenge, we’d love to see your application!
