Routing algorithm Engineer

Routing Algorithm Engineer What does an Algorithm Engineer at Coolblue do?

As an Algorithm Engineer, you work on smart algorithms that help our delivery vans drive in the most efficient way. You develop, improve and maintain these algorithms together with your team. You're close to the operation, so your solutions match exactly what’s needed on the road. That’s how you make an immediate impact on Coolblue’s delivery service. You collaborate closely with data scientists, developers and the Product Owner.

You translate business questions into clever, practical solutions. This way, you make our route planning a little bit better every day..

• developing algorithms that improve Coolblue’s logistics, like route planning.
• writing clean, scalable code that's easy to understand.
• sparring with Data Science, Development, and Operations colleagues.
• explaining complex logic in simple terms to non-tech stakeholders.
• designing and building new features from scratch.
• improving systems step by step without reinventing the wheel.

• you have a BsCor MsCdegree in Computer Science, Math or something similar.
• you’ve worked on optimization algorithms or heuristics before.
• you’re skilled in Python or another algorithm-focused language.
• you can clearly explain your technical ideas to others.
• you love learning and keep up with the latest in your field.

• Money.
• Over 30 training courses at our own Coolblue University.
• Travel allowance, pension scheme and where-you-work money.
• 25 vacation days. If you promise to come back.
• A discount on all our products.
• An extraordinarily good work environment with colleagues from all over the world who make you happy, epic (digital) Coolblue parties, pub quizzing, and other activities.
• Working together in an international environment with colleagues from the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Spain, Turkey, Brazil, Mexico, and Italy, among others.
• Room for new initiatives and ideas. We’re always open to those, whether you’ve been with us for a week, a month, or a year.
• Hybrid working: a fine balance between working at the office and working from home. Of course, we’ll help you create the best home-office possible. Including desk chair, laptop, and blue garlands.
