Lounge by Zalando is a rapidly growing part of Zalando, now turning over billions of euros each year. That said, there is so much untapped potential with respect to personalization and recommendation.
You will be a Backend Engineer, working alongside data engineers and data scientists to build and evolve large-scale recommender systems. As the largest online fashion retailer in Europe, we require a skilled engineer who can contribute to the design, building, and maintaining high-performance, low-latency backend systems for our Machine Learning infrastructure at a global scale. You will contribute to areas related to the online inference and serving of our real-time personalization algorithms.
This is a very good opportunity to build critical backend services that have a measurable impact on the business and the user experience. You will have significant input into architectural decisions, and the opportunity to direct them, helping to implement state-of-the-art ML recommender serving solutions. There are very few roles that offer this unique synthesis of backend system scale, performance, and ML complexity.
Our team thrives on a multidisciplinary approach, and while this role is primarily focused on backend development, we highly value individuals who are adaptable and willing to contribute to other areas as needed, fostering a truly collaborative environment.
At Zalando, our vision is to be the leading pan-European ecosystem for fashion and lifestyle e-commerce - one that is inclusive by design. We only assess candidates based on qualifications, merit, and business needs. We welcome applications from people of all gender identities, sexual orientations, personal expressions, racial identities, ethnicities, religious beliefs, and disability statuses. We only want to know why you’re great for this role, so please avoid including your picture, age, and marital status in your CV as well.
We want to provide you with a great candidate experience. Please feel free to inform us of any accommodations you may need, so we can best support and assist you throughout the hiring process.
