Dutch e-commerce platform for printer supplies and office products
123inkt.nl operates a multi-brand e-commerce business (printer supplies, batteries, LED, 3D materials, cleaning products) serving 4M+ customers across the Netherlands and Belgium. The tech stack reveals a hybrid approach: Magento/Adobe Commerce for storefront, Symfony + Node.js for backend services, Elasticsearch for search, and Kubernetes for orchestration — a mature monolith-to-microservices migration pattern. Active projects span platform modernization (ERP integration, cloud migration, database optimization) and conversion-driven work (SEO, advertising, product assortment), while hiring accelerates across engineering, sales, and marketing.
