These are our current challenges and future goals:
The Platform Engineer is responsible for connecting and stabilizing the company’s core operational ecosystem. This role owns the integrations, data flows, and system behavior that allow commerce, operations, finance, and customer support platforms to function as a coherent whole.
The focus is not on building features, but on ensuring reliability, scalability, and predictable behavior across systems. By creating clean interfaces and robust foundations, the Platform Engineer enables other teams, including AI and Automation, to move faster without increasing risk or complexity.
This is where we need your support:
* Core systems and integrations across the operational landscape - Own and evolve the company’s core operational systems and their integrations, including commerce, ERP, warehouse operations, finance, and customer support platforms, ensuring they work together as a coherent ecosystem.
* Data flows, event consistency, API reliability, and failure handling between systems - Design and maintain reliable data and event flows between systems, with a strong focus on correctness, resilience, and graceful failure handling across business-critical processes.
* Defining stable interfaces and abstractions that other teams can safely build on - Create and maintain clear integration patterns, interfaces, and abstractions that enable other engineers and teams to build solutions without introducing fragility or duplication.
* Ensuring platform stability, observability, and predictable behavior at scale - Ensure the operational platform remains stable, observable, and predictable as the business scales across higher volumes, additional markets, and increased system complexity.
You have the following experience:
* Strong experience working with complex, multi-system environments rather than single applications.
* Hands-on background designing and maintaining system integrations, APIs, and event-driven workflows.
* Experience ensuring reliability, error handling, and operational resilience in production systems.
* Ability to think in terms of platforms and interfaces, not one-off solutions.
* Comfortable collaborating with product, AI and automation, and operational teams to translate business needs into robust system design.
* Pragmatic mindset that balances short-term delivery with long-term platform health.
That's something you can look forward to:
* Work flexibly, in the way that suits you best. Work when and where you’re most productive – with flexible hours and smart time tracking.
* Home office? Done right. We’ve got you covered: receive a one-time €500 allowance to set up your perfect workspace.
* Fully equipped from day one. Mac or Windows – you choose what works best for you.
* Glow Card – your monthly treat. Get €50 every month to spend however you like – that’s €600 a year, just because.
* Learning is part of the deal. Whether it’s our Glowcademy, dedicated learning time, or personal development support – we invest in you, not just in numbers.
* Let’s Glow! Enjoy 40% off our entire product range – yes, everything.
* Take a break – you’ve earned it. 30 vacation days + 1 personal holiday + up to 10 additional unpaid days off when you need a real reset. Oh, and New Year’s Eve? That’s a day off too!
* Stay healthy, stay glowing. Our company health insurance reimburses up to €600 per year for extras like vision aids, alternative medicine, or dental cleanings.
* Thinking ahead. After your probation period, we’ll contribute €600 toward your pension plan – and if you add more, we’ll top it up with an extra 20%.
* Exclusive partner perks. Get access to discounts and special offers from top brands through our corporate benefit platforms.
* Team spirit to go. Our Glow25 merch is more than just fabric – it’s your badge of belonging.
* Culture that truly shines. For five years in a row, we’ve been recognized as a Top Company on Kununu - proof of the strong, positive, and genuine culture we live every day.
* Move your way. From workouts to wellness retreats – you decide how to stay active. Choose between Urban Sports Club or Wellpass.
Yay! You've made it this far!
But there’s one more thing we want to say: Don’t hesitate! Especially if you’re a woman, or from an underrepresented group. Even if you don’t check every box, we want to encourage you to apply anyway. We believe that a diverse range of perspectives and experiences makes a team stronger – and the stronger our team is, the better we can fulfil our mission of helping people bring more energy into their daily lives.
