Born in Amstelveen, Schilder started playing for local club NFC at age 6, before moving to VV Amstelveen Heemraad. There, he was scouted by Ajax, and eventually joined their famed youth academy in 1999.[2] After progressed through the different youth levels of the Amsterdam club between 1999 and 2005, Schilder was added to the Ajax first team in the winter break of the 2005–06 season.[2][3] In the home game against Willem II on 8 February 2006, he made his debut for the club.[2] In that season, his contribution on the pitch was limited to four appearances.[4] Ajax won the KNVB Cup that year, but Schilder did not play any minutes in the tournament.

Because the cup was won, Ajax started the following season with a match against PSV for the Johan Cruyff Shield. Schilder was in the starting lineup for that game, but he was substituted off by head coach Henk ten Cate at half-time.[5][2] Ajax won the game that would also be the only appearance for Schilder for Ajax that season. He left on a season-long loan to Heracles Almelo,[6] where he played 31 league matches and scored once.[4] He also made one appearance in the cup tournament, where he managed to score.

After the loan, Schilder returned to Ajax in 2007. Until the winter break, he played eight matches in the Eredivisie and one cup match and scored once.[4] In January, Schilder was sent on another loan to Heracles.[7] He played another eleven matches in the Eredivisie for the Almelo club in which he scored two goals, and he also played two cup matches, scoring one goal.[4]

In the 2008–09 season, Schilder returned to Ajax again, but did not manage to establish himself as a starter. His contribution was limited to eighteen matches, including five in the UEFA Cup.[4] Schilder was unable to score that year and did not see his expiring contract renewed.[8]
