“The entire customer journey. One platform”

People move between channels, platforms, apps and physical locations without thinking about it.

We connect conversations, customer data and payments with AI Agents, so that businesses all over the world can grow faster, together.

All our services are fully integrated within our unique business structure, consisting of four business units: Connect, Pay, Live, and Engage.

Now, we’re looking for a Backend Developer to join the Customer Data Platform product team!

• Take ownership of a vital component at the core of CM.com’s product ecosystem. The CDP serves as the backbone for customer data management, enabling clients to store, structure, and utilize their data effectively.

You’ll play a vital role in evolving this platform. Your work will directly impact how businesses leverage data to create personalized, data-driven experiences. You’ll focus on:

  • Designing and implementing new features.

• Improve processes using AI, automation and smart tooling

• Make decisions fast, test ideas, and learn from what doesn’t work

The reality at CM.com

We believe honesty creates better matches. So here it is:

• Priorities can shift quickly as technology and insights evolve.

• AI will change how your role looks, fast. Some tasks you do today may disappear next year.

• We move before everything is finished or polished.

• For this position, we can only consider candidates who already hold a permanent work and residence permit for the Netherlands.

If that excites you, you’ll probably feel at home here. If you’re looking for predictability and fixed boundaries, this may not be the right place.
