About the job

Join our Replenishment team as a Senior Python Developer, where you’ll play a key role in shaping one of our most in-demand products. Working in two-week sprints, you’ll contribute to everything from feature development to system design, with plenty of room for autonomy, ownership, and impact.

• Feature development: Build end-to-end features that directly impact thousands of users.

• Tech stack: Work with Python, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and CubeJS.

• Cloud-first mindset: Design and maintain scalable services in AWS, using service-oriented and event-driven architecture.

• System design & architecture: Help shape new services, ensuring our platform stays robust, flexible, and ready for growth.

About you

You’re an experienced backend engineer who enjoys building reliable systems at scale. With 5+ years of hands-on experience, you’re fluent in Python and confident working with large datasets. Ideally, you’ve already taken on senior responsibilities and are ready to bring that experience into a collaborative, product-focused environment.

We think you’ll be a great fit if you bring:

• Strong proficiency in Python (Django, Flask, or FastAPI experience welcome)

• Hands-on experience with PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Cube, and ClickHouse

• Solid AWS knowledge, including services like S3, ECS, Lambda, EC2, and RDS

• Familiarity with Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform or similar)

• A track record of designing and implementing scalable, fault-tolerant architectures

• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills, with a focus on building clean, maintainable solutions

• A proactive, structured approach and an interest in data pipelines and data management challenges

You value thoughtful communication, welcome feedback, and enjoy working in teams that challenge and support each other to grow.

About the team

You’ll be part of our Replenishment team, responsible for the Order and Smart Replenishment services. The team is currently eight engineers strong, supported by a product manager and product designer. We use Angular and Node for user-facing applications and Python for the backend.

Collaboration is at the heart of how we work - both within the team and with other product teams across the company. Expect plenty of opportunities to connect, share ideas, and build solutions together.

What’s in it for you?
