Store/dc infrastructure engineer

.

FoodTech is hot! If you’re
looking for a career in engineering with impact and scale, but you
don’t want to move away from coding as your core activity,
keep reading.

As Store/DC
Infrastructure Engineer you will build our Store (&
Distribution center) test lab of the future and you will work on
further automating and integrating our store infrastructure
ecosystem. This will require a mixture of physical IT hardware
& devices, public cloud (Azure), edge computing, DevOps and
Internet-of-Things (IoT) technologies.
 

One of our
challenges for the period ahead is to create an infrastructure
platform with an amazing developer experience where many of our
teams can test applications and develop new concepts for our stores
(and later also our distribution centers). This will require a
self-service solution driven by infrastructure automation for both
a physical test lab as well as a digital test
lab.

This role is
pivotal in enabling our product teams to innovate and enhance both
customer and employee experiences. You will tackle the engineering
challenge of scaling and managing this infrastructure to support
our 50 test stores and apply lessons learned from our 1250 stores.
 

As part of a
small, dynamic team with numerous stakeholders, your ability to
take initiative and work proactively is
crucial.

This
is how you will reinvent food retail  />Working for AH Technology means you like these kinds of
challenges: we think big and work at scale. As a Store/DC Infra
Engineer you understand how these technologies need to be realized
in a complex environment this large. Together with your team you
solve technical challenges with a true engineering mindset.
Specifically, together with the team you
will:

• Lead
  and contribute to Cloud / Intune migration projects for store
  devices (e.g. Zebra PDAs, iPads), replacing legacy MDM solutions
  and enabling a unified management
  platform.
• Work on a wide range of store
  infrastructure projects – from network upgrades and new hardware
  rollouts (PoS, ESL, self-scan, back-office servers) to cloud
  migrations and integrations with our Azure
  landscape.
• Apply cloud-native and edge-native
  best practices to improve our test lab and store environments,
  ensuring they are future-proof, secure, and
  reliable.
• Build fully automated infrastructure
  components using Infrastructure-as-Code and Configuration-as-Code
  (Terraform, Intune policies, scripting), both in our Azure clouds
  and decentralized store
  infrastructure.
• Implement DevOps tooling and
  workflows (e.g. GitHub Actions) to automate deployments, testing
  and configuration management in our store
  environments.
• Integrate our store
  infrastructure and devices with the Observability platform
  (Grafana, Prometheus, Loki) to improve monitoring, insights, and
  alerting.
• Explore and leverage IoT and edge
  technologies to identify operational improvements in the test lab
  and production stores.
• Help craft and run
  proofs of concept and pilots for new store technologies, uphold
  security and quality standards, and drive adoption of best
  practices.
• Share your knowledge within our
  community and contribute to projects across the Store Supply Chain
  Tech Platform and the wider AH Technology
  landscape.
• Stay up to date with the latest
  trends in Intune, retail infrastructure, automation, and IoT, and
  translate them into practical, scalable solutions for our
  stores.

Your
new team and office.
Together with your
team you will work on inspiring projects 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 the 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. 

We think it’s
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
