Description
Join our MarTech Cluster as a DevOps Engineer. In this role, you are responsible for the continuous improvement and upkeep of the backend services for our Customer Messaging team. This team is responsible for all solutions used for customer-facing communication by email, in-app messaging, push messaging and the messaging inbox in the Albert Heijn app.
This is how you will reinvent food retail: You’ll make impact as you work on innovative solutions for four of our key messaging channels for customers: in-app, push, email, and app inbox, supporting both marketing and operational messaging.
You’ll collaborate on combining vendor tools with custom-built solutions and drive the development of a robust data foundation to support automation and efficient processes for our stakeholders.
You’ll work with technologies like Kotlin, Spring Boot, Kafka, MongoDB, ArgoCD and Grafana observability stack (LGTM).
Your new team and office: Together with your team (4 backenders, 1 Android, 1 iOS, 2 PL-SQL developers, 1 QA and a PO), you will work on inspiring projects to accelerate our transition into a hybrid Food & Tech company.
Your team is responsible for the technology behind our communication streams to customers regarding operational messages (for example after placing an order) and marketing messages. In the near future, the team will work hard to ensure that marketing campaigns can be orchestrated based on available data.
We want to leverage data and technology to future-proof food shopping and give our customers easier access to healthy food.
At Albert Heijn, you team up with inspiring peers in the data, digital and tech domains to create digital solutions that make (online) shopping simpler and more inspiring. We invest heavily in data, digital and tech, including investing in your career. Our teams work in a hybrid way: both from home as well as in the office.
What we offer: An annual salary up to 80K including holiday allowance and a flexible bonus, depending on your level of seniority and experience.
A minimum of 20 days paid vacation, optionally 12.5 days extra. You can take that extra time off, convert the extra days into discounts or sell them for cash.
Flexible working hours.
Access to a challenging training curriculum – AH Tech Academy.
An excellent pension plan where we as an employer contribute 4,5 more than you as an employee.
A travel allowance or a NS-business card for traveling to and from Zaandam by train.
Attractive discounts on various insurance policies.
10% staff discount on groceries in all Albert Heijn stores, to a maximum of €300 per year.
A free Mijn Albert Heijn Premium membership with many benefits.
A company laptop and telephone.
The recipe for maximum impact We think it’s important to be part of a high‑belonging team;
a team where you can beyourself and feel safe, accepted and appreciated. Don’t check all the boxes? Don’t worry, we probably don’t either. Furthermore, we think you would be the best geared if you have the following experience:
8+ years of work experience as a DevOps engineer focused on backend development (Kotlin).
Knowledge of Spring Boot, Microservices Architecture, Cloud and DevOps.
Strong knowledge of service design, integrating with 3rd parties, and observability.
You enjoy teamwork and making things happen together and improving existing tech.
