About You

You’re an experienced full stack developer with a strong backend focus who brings a deep understanding of building and maintaining production systems. With 5+ years of hands-on experience, you’re fluent in TypeScript, confident working with AWS, and comfortable taking ownership of core services that other teams and customers depend on.

You’ve worked with Angular on the frontend, and you have a strong grasp of API design, system architecture, and authentication/authorization flows. A background in DevOps or platform engineering (e.g., CI/CD, infrastructure as code, AWS) is a definite plus.

You’re proactive, structured, and enjoy designing clean, maintainable systems. You value thoughtful communication and feedback, and you work well in a team that challenges and supports each other to grow. You live in Hamburg.

About The Team

You'll be joining our Platform Experience team, which builds and supports the core services that keep Fashion Cloud’s platform running smoothly. We focus on making sure key features work well for both users and other teams.

Our responsibilities include:

• User and organization management, enabling smooth account creation, team structures, and platform access.
• Authentication and authorization, handling user sign-ups, logins, access control, and role-based permissions.
• Core platform services, such as notifications, SDKs services, and Frontend application to be used by other product teams.
• Maintaining the design system, so that our product looks and feels consistent across all parts of the platform.
  
  

We work closely with other product teams and help them move faster by providing the tools and systems they need to build great features.

What’s in it for you?

• Flexible working times - No 9 to 5, you are in charge of your time!
• Hamburg-based role with 20 Days Remote Working Program
• A great office - we stick to a hybrid work model (minimum 2 days per week working at the office) and enjoy flexibility between working face to face with the colleagues at the office and opportunity to work from home
