THE ROLE \& THE TEAM
Lounge by Zalando is a rapidly growing part of Zalando, now turning over billions of euros each year. That said, there is so much untapped potential with respect to personalization and recommendation.
You will be a Backend Engineer, working alongside data engineers and data scientists to build and evolve large\-scale recommender systems. As the largest online fashion retailer in Europe, we require a skilled engineer who can contribute to the design, building, and maintaining high\-performance, low\-latency backend systems for our Machine Learning infrastructure at a global scale. You will contribute to areas related to the online inference and serving of our real\-time personalization algorithms.
This is a very good opportunity to build critical backend services that have a measurable impact on the business and the user experience. You will have significant input into architectural decisions, and the opportunity to direct them, helping to implement state\-of\-the\-art ML recommender serving solutions. There are very few roles that offer this unique synthesis of backend system scale, performance, and ML complexity.
Our team thrives on a multidisciplinary approach, and while this role is primarily focused on backend development, we highly value individuals who are adaptable and willing to contribute to other areas as needed, fostering a truly collaborative environment.

We only assess candidates based on qualifications, merit, and business needs.

We want to provide you with a great candidate experience. Please feel free to inform us of any accommodations you may need, so we can best support and assist you throughout the hiring process.
