Software Development Engineer II - Catalogue & Integrations Platform

• Platform Development: Design, develop, and own scalable backend services and integration frameworks using Java and Spring Boot.

• Integration & Connectors: Build and maintain high-reliability connectors for retailer systems (APIs, feeds, webhooks) to handle catalogue synchronisation, order placement, and tracking.

• Data Pipelining: Develop high-performance data ingestion and processing pipelines for large-scale catalog data.

• System Reliability : Implement and own systems for robust error handling, retries, idempotency, rate limiting, and monitoring across all external integrations.

• Real-Time Systems: Work on near-real-time systems for critical data, such as inventory, pricing, and order status updates.

• Operational Excellence: Ensure high availability, scalability, and observability in production to drive continuous improvement, enabling faster retailer onboarding and reduced operational overhead.
• Core Backend: 1+ year of professional backend development experience with strong hands-on coding skills in Java and Spring Boot.

• Architecture : Proficiency in microservice architecture and a strong understanding of distributed systems concepts (fault tolerance, retries, idempotency).

• Integrations: Proven experience building or working with external integrations (APIs, webhooks, third-party systems).

• Messaging: Experience with message queues (Kafka / SQS) and asynchronous processing patterns.

• Data: Solid understanding of relational databases and data modelling.

• Cloud & Tools: Familiarity with AWS services, cloud-native development, and tools for monitoring, logging, and debugging production systems.
• Experience with ETL / data pipelines or large-scale catalogue systems.

• Exposure to the e-commerce domain (catalogue, orders, inventory).

• Experience with batch/stream processing tools (e.g., Spark).

• Understanding of API authentication mechanisms (OAuth, API keys).

We’re looking for a problem-solver who is excited about building scalable integration platforms, solving real-world data challenges, and working on high-impact systems.
