Job Description

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.

The Hamsterfish team is part of OTTO's logistics IT. We are a dedicated team of six people who are passionate about building a new ERP system in the Google Cloud. Our main task is to set up inventory management for all OTTO locations.

What sets us apart: We enjoy our work, are cross-functional and bring different perspectives and skills to the table. Pair programming is not just a method for us, but part of our team culture - this is how we learn from each other and develop innovative solutions together.

We believe in an open and creative working atmosphere in which every idea counts and we work together on the future of logistics IT. If you're looking for exciting challenges and a great team, then you've come to the right place!
