Backend Developer

Many employees in all different types of processes rely on accurate and complete product data. The product master will be a new master data management implementation within for both the consumer and business market. It supports the goals to become the best service provider, simplification in processes and IT, digitalization and most of all to become a data driven organization. The essence is to have a single master platform that embodies all the needed product data in relation to all the end-users who depend on this data.

As a Backend Developer you will work with cutting edge (streaming) technologies and work within an agile scrum team. You will become responsible, together with the team, of creating the product master solution for all subscribers on this data and systems that will feed the product master.
