As an experienced Web Backend Developer, you’ll dive into optimizing crucial parts of our website. While you know your way around PHP, your real superpower is setting up and maintaining microservices in TypeScript.

How do I become a Web Backend Developer at Coolblue?

At Coolblue, you'll be part of a tight-knit, multicultural team of 3-7 developers, taking on the role of an experienced Web Backend Developer. Working in an agile environment, you and your team own the end-to-end development of specific website features and the microservices behind them. You’ll regularly brainstorm with Customer Journey Specialists and UX/UI Designers to build solutions that wow our customers. Your day-to-day includes diving into pull requests, doing code reviews, and pairing up with teammates to deliver clean, efficient code.
