• Build and run pricing tools for merchandisers, including competitor intelligence , and AI-assisted attribute detection; support authentication workflows

• Develop and support internal tools and maintain our Shopify storefronts (Carousell Luxury and Luxury Lexicon): collections, templates, emails and bug fixes

• Pull, query and model data directly from Postgres to produce WBR (and related MBR/QBR) reports and performance metrics for leadership

• Troubleshoot order processing. Act as backup for the Operations Automation lead, covering internal admin tools, POS and payments issues during leave

• Analyse current business processes to identify automation opportunities, proposing solutions that improve efficiency and reduce cost

• Partner with IT, Operations, Customer Support and Finance to integrate and deploy automation and reporting solutions

• Monitor and maintain automated systems and internal tools, addressing issues and ensuring reliability and performance

• Create and maintain comprehensive documentation for automated processes and generate reports on automation performance and metrics for the management team

• Shopify experience is a plus
