Do you want to work on technology that truly makes an impact? As a Mendix Developer, you will help further develop the logistics heart of PostNL, ensuring millions of packages reach their destination smartly and quickly.

Daarom kies je als Mendix Engineer - Team SSR voor PostNL

Visible work: You contribute to the digitization of the largest supply chain in the Netherlands. If you make a change, you will see it directly on the streets the next day.
Challenge: You work with Mendix and machine learning on smart logistics solutions.
Good atmosphere: You work in an enthusiastic and mature scrum team that helps each other move forward.
Freedom: You work partly from home and partly in our modern office in the Stationspostgebouw in The Hague.
Responsibility: You have the space to largely fill in your role and working hours yourself.
Development opportunities: You follow training courses through the PostNL Academy and grow within the Mendix community.

Dit is jouw rol

With your sharp analyses and technical skills, you improve one of the most important platforms at the heart of our logistics. Our Smart Shipment Router (SSR) platform determines the best logistical route for millions of packages per day. The platform is developed and continuously optimized by us. Think of changes like a new commercial proposition, an algorithm to predict delivery times, or smarter management of our deliverers.

You translate logistical issues into practical IT solutions that directly contribute to our ambition: we deliver special moments and are a reliable partner. You work in a Scrum team and develop Mendix applications that improve our logistics chain. You experiment with new technologies such as the Mendix Machine Learning Kit and AWS Event Brokers. Together with colleagues from the chain, such as Chain Management and Strategy, you ensure smart solutions that truly make a difference. If something in the platform does not work well, it has immediate major consequences for the deliverers on the street and therefore for the whole of the Netherlands. Your work is therefore super relevant!

Jouw collega's

You work in a multidisciplinary team of three Mendix developers (with AWS expertise), a Platform Owner, two Solution Consultants, and a Scrum Master. Together, you build a robust and innovative platform that is business-critical for our logistics.

The atmosphere in the team is professional and collegial, with plenty of room for personal growth and a joint lunch or game night. You work an average of two days a week in the office in The Hague.
