Otto (GmbH & Co KG)

Job Description
OTTO is one of Europe's most successful e-commerce companies. With more than 10 million items from over 7,000 brands, otto.de is now one of Germany's leading online shopping platforms. As a marketplace, we are constantly operating with brands and partners, so we keep growing. Resting? Not our thing! Not yours either? Then come on board - and shape the future of e-commerce with us.

Diversity belongs to us like the river Elbe belongs to Hamburg: We stand up for openness, respect and tolerance. Let's set sail together - regardless of where you come from, who you love or what you believe in. Because you are unique and that's what we are looking for.

With us, you can contribute ideas and drive projects forward, get involved in networks for your heart's desire and actively shape our corporate culture. Trying something new, think in new ways, be innovative, go above and beyond your own borders - that's our mindset. Let's achieve great things together. Whether you work on campus or at home. Make OTTO your playground.

As a platform, otto.de offers a diverse range of products and brands - with millions of articles, tools for personal advice, two million visits per day and 600 deployments per week, software development is an exciting challenge.

In Findability, you will be part of a passionate, interdisciplinary team. Our focus is on the further development of product and search results pages with the aim of helping our customers to quickly and easily identify the most relevant product for them.

Sounds interesting? There's more, because we are not only responsible for the software behind all of this, but also take care of our services in the cloud in a self-organized way. From co-designing our font and backend architecture through to operation, everything is included.

Many people talk about "home office" - we talk about "hybrid or mobile work": our teams decide together with their manager what balance of mobile working (remote) and on-site presence makes sense for them. In our team, we meet on campus every second Tuesday.

Tech stack:

Java | Spring Boot | AWS | TypeScript | HTML5 | SCSS | MongoDB | Gradle | Git | REST


As a Senior Full Stack Developer, you will support us throughout the entire software lifecycle:

  • You design microservice architectures for highly available systems as part of a team
  • You develop software for backend and frontend systems as well as APIs in a team using current technologies
  • You ensure high software quality with meaningful test coverage
  • You take joint responsibility for our systems and ensure comprehensive monitoring

Not sure if the position is right for you? - We would be happy to put you in touch with Julian Hilbers from the specialist department. Would you like to experience your future team and workplace live? - You will have the opportunity to do so at a later date as part of your application process.
