ABOUT THE ROLE & TEAM
Over the last years, we learned that solving fulfillment-related challenges for the good of our customers helps us to fuel the growth of our platform. With more partners in Partner Program and Connected Retail joining our platform, we have been developing and testing additional further fulfillment services tailored to their needs.
As a Kotlin Software Engineer at ZEOS, you will design technical solutions to extend our Zalando Fulfillment capabilities to external brands and partners. Together with an engaged and sophisticated team of engineers and product managers, you will create services that are used internally, by partners and by our web applications.
You will ensure that in an evolving network complexity, all our operational processes like warehousing, inventory management, inventory distribution, deliveries, returns, replenishment logics can be steered automatically and sensibly. You will have the chance to learn about the broad business background we’re working with. In line with the overall Zalando philosophy you bring visibility and transparency to processes and thus have a huge impact on our customers and key stakeholders.
INCLUSIVE BY DESIGN
At Zalando, our vision is to be inclusive by design. And this vision starts with our hiring - we do not discriminate on the basis of gender identity, sexual orientation, personal expression, ethnicity, religious belief, or disability status. You are welcome to leave out your picture, age, or marital status from your application. We only assess candidates on their qualifications and merit.
We want to provide you with a great candidate experience. Feel free to inform us of any accommodations you may need, so we can best support you throughout the hiring process.
