You will work within a DXP/PIM environment (training provided), implement API integrations, model data structures, and use AI-assisted development tools. Requires 3+ years backend experience (PHP/Symfony preferred), good grasp of databases and APIs, and fluency in Dutch. No prior Pimcore knowledge needed.
Highlights
Build and maintain core platform functionality, work with AI tooling, get full training and certification on Pimcore, and have direct impact on digitalisation and efficiency.
Description
About our client
Our client is the leading data platform for product and article information in the Benelux, active across hardware, tools, construction materials, paint, and automotive.
They help suppliers, procurement organisations, and retailers centrally manage, standardise, and commercially leverage their product data.
Their Data-as-a-Service platform transforms raw, messy supplier data into high-quality, structured product information.
The platform is continuously growing, and AI plays an increasingly central role in how data quality is improved, workflows are automated, and operations scale.
This is not a maintenance role — you’ll be building something that genuinely shapes how businesses operate.
The role
As Platform Developer you will design, build, and maintain the digital solutions at the core of our client’s platform.
In practice that means working within Pimcore — their DXP/PIM environment — but the skills that matter most are ones you very likely already have: solid backend architecture, clean API integration, and a real instinct for data modelling.
No Pimcore experience? No problem.
Our client will cover your training and certification.
What they’re looking for is a developer who writes code they’re proud of, thinks about maintainability from day one, and is genuinely curious about how AI tooling can make their work faster and better.
You’ll work closely with product, data, and IT colleagues and have direct impact on digitalisation, efficiency, and the experience of the businesses that rely on the platform.
Tasks & responsibilities

Your profile
At least 3 years of backend development experience — PHP (Symfony) is a strong fit, but Python or another OOP background works if the fundamentals are solid;You don’t need to know Pimcore.
You need to care about building things that actually work — and our client will invest in the rest;Good grasp of relational databases, REST APIs, and data-driven application architecture;You already use AI tools in your daily coding work — Copilot, Cursor, or similar — and you have a view on how to use them well;You write structured, readable code and take ownership of quality end-to-end;You communicate clearly, work independently, and enjoy solving problems at the system level;Fluency in Dutch is a must.
