Hi, we are AH Technology, food retail reinventors

Albert Heijn goes back. More than 130 years, to be exact. So, for millions of people, food shopping is synonymous with the Albert Heijn brand. We did not achieve this with a complacent, ‘hey, if it works today, it’ll work tomorrow’ approach, but by continually rethinking our propositions and staying plugged in to customer demands. Over 1,200 stores? Check. The leading online food retail platform? Check, we build, run, and love it. ;-)

So, what is next? Accelerating our transition into a hybrid Food & Tech company. We want to leverage data and technology to future-proof food shopping and make better food more easily accessible to everyone. At AH Technology, 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 data platforms and solutions that enable better decisions. 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!

Job Description

A few cool new features we have recently implemented:

- The enablement of streaming data sets

- Custom build User Access Management with fully API based back end

- Documentation that writes itself
