Senior Software engineer (Python)

we are building a SaaS platform that brings multiple e learning brands together into one modern product. Each new acquisition introduces new systems, integrations and migration flows that must be automated and made reliable. We are now looking for a Python Software Engineer to build the internal tooling, scripts and services that make these platform integrations predictable and repeatable

a fast growing group of e learning companies on a mission to become Europe’s leading platform for professional education.

We serve regulated industries such as law, medicine, transport and education, where continuity and reliability are critical.

After successfully onboarding our first tenant onto a new multi tenant platform, we are scaling across brands and standardising how systems integrate. You will join a skilled engineering team that values autonomy, clean code and long term maintainability.

As a Python Software Engineer for Integration Tooling, you build the automation and glue that allow legacy systems and our new platform to work together.

• Automate dry runs, checks and cut over tasks for brand onboarding

• Implement validation, error handling and basic observability in integration flows

• Work closely with the integration architect, data engineer and project team

• Design reusable templates and components that make future migrations faster and cleaner

• Document your tooling so that other engineers can use and extend it

• 4-8 years of experience as a backend, platform or integration engineer

• Strong Python development skills, with experience in scripting, automation or integration logic

• Comfortable designing adapters, validation checks and lightweight backend tooling

• Understanding of APIs, data flows and how different systems interact

• A structured and pragmatic engineering mindset focused on reliability and maintainability

• Clear communication and documentation skills to support team-wide adoption of your tools

• Fluent English (Dutch is a plus)

• Based in the Netherlands (no IND sponsorship)

• Excellent salary up to 8.000 euro gross per month, depending on experience
