How does a jar of peanut butter make its way to the shelf at your local Albert Heijn? Does that question get you thinking about suppliers, pallets, distribution centers, trucks, and delivery routes? Do you start visualizing the planning, algorithms, and optimizations that ensure these processes run efficiently and sustainably? If terms like knapsack problems, the traveling salesman, linear programming, and meta-heuristics come to mind, you might be the perfect fit for our team! We’re looking for curious, talented individuals to join and strengthen our Operations Analytics and Data Science team.

 

At Albert Heijn, we operate on a just-in-time logistics model, which means there’s no room for delays.

  • Leverage cloud platforms and CI/CD pipelines to continuously integrate and deploy scalable and robust solutions
  • Collaborate with stakeholders across the business to translate complex data insights into practical solutions that improve overall efficiency
  • Effectively communicate complex ideas to various audiences, from technical teams to business stakeholders
  • Work in multidisciplinary product teams to tackle real-world logistics challenges
  • Share your expertise and coach other team members

 

We’re looking for candidates who have:

 

  • A Master’s degree in Computer Science, Applied Mathematics, Operations Research, or a related field (or equivalent relevant experience and interest)
  • Experience working in logistics or related fields, with a talent for solving complex supply chain puzzles
  • A strong understanding of Operations Research and its real-world application to logistics
  • A pragmatic, hands-on approach to problem-solving with a focus on getting things done
