Important:
To process your application, we kindly ask you to submit a
motivation letter together with your CV. Applications without a
motivation letter will unfortunately not be considered in the
selection process.

Your new role and
workplace.
As
a graduation intern within the GET
Platform, you will contribute directly to improving the testing process of
store applications used within Etos. You will work on innovative solutions that help
development teams test faster,
more reliably, and more independently from complex
external
system dependencies. 

Within Etos, several applications support daily store
operations through handheld devices.
These applications are used for processes such as
stock management,
ordering, internal shipments, and working with article,
pricing, promotion, and store
information. 

Although the application itself can already be tested to a certain extent, many functional scenarios depend heavily on
data from external source
systems. Examples include price changes, promotions,
store groups,
store layouts, and article data.
In practice, dependencies on external
systems such as
JDA and promotion processes often result in
long testing lead times. Test data
must frequently be prepared across multiple
systems, specific scenarios are difficult to reproduce, and testing changes reliably can become time-consuming and inefficient. 

At
the same time, the team wants to better understand how end users in
stores actually use the application. Which functionalities are used
most frequently? Which routes do users take through the
application? Where do delays, deviations, or optimization
opportunities occur? These insights can help define more realistic
and effective test
scenarios. 

During this graduation internship, you will design and build a proof of
concept for a testing solution that simulates external
source systems through stubbing or
service virtualization.
In addition, you will perform a process mining and usage analysis based on logging,
event data,
or other usage data to better understand real application behavior. 

During your internship, you will work on:

  • Designing
    and building a proof of concept for simulating external source
    systems.
  • Investigating techniques such as
    stubbing and service virtualization.
  • Performing
    process mining and usage analysis on application
    data.
  • Analyzing logging and event data to
    understand real user behavior in
    stores.
  • Translating usage insights into
    realistic and effective test
    scenarios.
  • Improving the speed, reliability,
    and repeatability of functional testing
    processes.
  • Evaluating how testing can become
    less dependent on external systems and full integration
    chains. 

This internship offers
hands-on experience with software testing, process mining, system
integration, analytics, and modern development practices. You will
work together with technical teams and stakeholders while
contributing to practical improvements with direct impact on
development efficiency and software
quality. 

In this role, you work 32-40 hours per
week, partly from our head office in
Zaandam and partly from home. 

We
believe it is important that everyone at Albert Heijn can be
themselves in an environment that welcomes different perspectives
and values curiosity and collaboration. For this
internship, we especially encourage candidates who strengthen the
diversity of our teams in the broadest sense of
the word.

  • A challenging internship with real
    responsibilities and practical impact.
  • An
    internship allowance (€500 gross per four weeks) plus travel
    reimbursement.

Additionally: 

  • You are currently
    pursuing a HBO degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering,
    ICT, or a related field.
  • You have affinity with
    software testing, system integration, and data
    analysis. 
  • You are interested in process
    mining, logging analysis, and application
    monitoring.
  • Experience with programming, APIs,
    test automation, or virtualization concepts is a strong
    plus.
  • Experience with SQL, Python, or data
    analysis tools is beneficial.
  • If you combine
    technical curiosity with strong analytical skills, that is a great
    match. 

Furthermore, you are:

  • Analytical
    and detail-oriented.
  • Curious and eager to
    learn.
  • Proactive and comfortable working
    independently on technical
    challenges.
  • Communicative and collaborative in
    working with different
    teams. 

Together we
make better food accessible. For everyone.

Every evening,
