Senior Backend Engineer, Revenue

Vinted backend engineers work in Product Engineering teams. These teams have all the main competencies that are needed to ship new features to our members without outside help (cross-functional). Teams have mobile platform engineers (iOS, Android), web engineers, and multiple backend engineers. Backend engineers implement business logic and write APIs that our mobile and web platforms can use. They are also responsible for growing our backend platform to handle a wider scale.

Our Revenue domain focuses on acting as a one-stop shop for all pricing and revenue decisions at Vinted marketplace, responsible for delivering user experiences, capabilities, and tooling related to pricing and revenue.
