Then join our team where you will be both a hands-on engineer and the architect for an outstanding product team, driving the architectural vision and setting the foundation for success!

Core Responsibilities

As Lead Engineer, you are responsible for nurturing the engineering culture, defining the technical direction, establishing standard methodologies, and ensuring alignment to the overall domain architecture. Furthermore, you take ownership for achieving technical objectives and strategies. Responsibilities include:

• Leading by example for all developers in the team and provide technical coaching, leadership and mentoring for the entire team.

Play your part in our team succeeding

As our Engineering lead, you’ll drive our Engineering efforts in consolidating Digital Shelves Data from various SaaS platforms, integrating it with our Product Information Management (PIM) system, and building a best-in-class Digital Shelf EDO* to power asset utilization analytics. Additionally, you’ll help create insightful analytical services (widgets) for use across our content activation touchpoints. 

*(Enhanced Data Optimization (EDO) focuses on refining how product data appears across platforms, ensuring that product content—such as descriptions, images, reviews, pricing, and availability—is accurate, search-optimized, and tailored to consumer behavior to boost visibility, sales, and engagement.)

Join our team of in-house Software Engineers and be responsible for the overall success of the team to ensure we focus on doing the right things the right way. You will collaborate with the PM through your detailed tech know-how and be the go-to person for the developers when they need a hand on solving technical issues. API-enabling our products for greater integration within our digital ecosystem will be key, therefore, ensuring extraordinary engineering practice in code quality, documentations, and contribution to our API community will be part of your responsibilities.

You’ll thrive in this role if you have:

• Proven experience in data architecture, data modeling, and data warehousing.
