Data holds no secrets for you. You prepare the data for use in advanced algorithms and analysis tools. Improving our business starts with you as a data engineer.

Over two billion records. Randstad, Yacht and Tempo-Team possess an enormous quantity of data: the characteristics of millions of candidates and business data on clients, potentials and our own organisation. You open up this information and prepare it for use in calculation models and analysis tools. Thanks to you, all this data results in a wealth of information that helps us improve our business.

Sven Duin about working as a data engineer at Randstad Group Netherlands

“You might not be able to tell when looking at our office from the outside, but Randstad Group Netherlands plays a leading role in the staffing sector when it comes to software development and innovation. I am involved in e.g. data-driven work methods, intelligent algorithms and apps. How can you quickly find the three most suitable candidates in a database of millions? Our data and analysis tools also help our colleagues be successful in the market. As a data engineer, you truly matter in the organisation. I love the fact that the results we achieve with our team are visible and measurable and that they make a concrete contribution to the improvement of the organisation’s services and business.

what will you do?

Data is only valuable if you make clever use of it. That is why you extract data from various sources and systems, generally following a request from the organisation. Next, you make the data usable. That means you clean it up, format it and present it in the desired format. You also support the development of advanced analysis apps and algorithms and help end users understand and utilise the data and tools. This lets them conduct analyses, draw up reports, detect trends and seamlessly match clients and candidates.

where do you work?

At our head office in Diemen, where more than one hundred and fifty IT professionals work and experiment with new technologies every day. You will become part of one of the twenty-four DevOps teams, although you are not isolated by any means. There is plenty of interesting collaboration with other teams within and outside the IT department.

with whom do you work?

Requests and projects from the organisation end up on your desk via the product owner. Next, you work with the individual end users. These include business and finance analysts, marketers, staffing consultants, sales consultants and the management team. It all depends on what the data is needed for. You also collaborate closely with the developers in your team, infrastructure specialists and data analysts from your own and other development teams.

Talent Manager en oud-trainee

Laura Konijnenburg

Over begeleiding van het traineeship: ''Dat is eigenlijk het voornaamste wat ik doe: mensen bewust maken. Niet door te zeggen wat goed of fout gedrag is, maar door te focussen op: wat was jouw intentie met deze actie en in hoeverre kreeg je het beoogde effect?''

Rick van der Westen

“Mensen hebben totaal andere studie-achtergronden en heel uiteenlopende wereldbeelden. De één is introvert, de ander juist extravert. Daarin lopen trainees steeds meer uiteen.”
