Description

Shipup is a mission-critical tool for online retailers, offering best-in-class post-purchase experience to millions of end customers. We’re looking for a Product Full-Stack Engineer to join one of our 3 squads.

We aim to implement ambitious changes in our product over the next few quarters, developing innovative capabilities that further differentiate our value proposition. To give ourselves the means to achieve this, we’re investing in our product and tech team by opening a position in our Engage Squad, responsible for our high volume of personalized notifications sent to shoppers, on various channels (from emails to WhatsApp) or through 3rd parties (Klaviyo, Zendesk, etc).

As part of this growth, we are committed to maintaining the same high standard of quality through our codebase while designing and implementing important changes. In particular, the Squad is working on a new event-driven approach for notification generation, and aims to standardize its practices around front-end development, supporting our drive for innovation while maintaining excellence.

WHAT YOU WILL DO..

You’ll help us scale Shipup as a mission-critical tool for online retailers to offer a best-in-class post-purchase experience to their millions of customers.
You’ll build new product features from start to finish: through conception, research, documentation, implementation, maintenance, and polish.
You’ll build improvements to performance and reliability.
You’ll work on key initiatives to keep our system elegant and productivity high — such as improving our code, monitoring our infrastructure, and building out our testing framework.
You’ll participate in implementing and promoting good practices around front-end development within your squad, with the guidance of our Frontend Staff Engineer..
You’ll build and improve processes and internal tools with simplicity and productivity in mind, according to the values of the Engage Squad.

You’ll join a team of twenty-one (15 technical and 6 product people) led by Dounia (our CPO) and Loïc (VP Engineering). This team is currently divided into three squads. We aim to grow the team to twenty-four people by 2026.
At Shipup, we enjoy working with humble engineers who seek to work in a learning, collaborative, and friendly environment.
Our developers come from diverse educational backgrounds and know how to use & adapt their tools according to the challenges at hand. They do care and are proud of how they do their stuff, but also why.
They enjoy contributing to the company & product activities that allow them to make an impact beyond the code itself.

Our Tech & Product team relies on a robust framework, which allows developers to work on projects that are most valuable to our customers, while also considering the technical evolutions necessary for the product's good health and maintainability.

Multidisciplinary teams following the squad philosophy: Each team has its own dedicated Engineering Manager, Product Manager, and Product Designer.
Ownership: Each squad focuses on a specific product scope and is responsible for its maintenance and upkeep.
Good & recognized development practices: pair programming, continuous delivery, slack time, testing, and extensive documentation.
Data-minded team: We rely on data day-to-day to inform our decisions and track our impact.
Quarterly roadmap executed in 2-week sprints with integrated feedback loops
On-call process: Squads are accountable for building and operating the observability and monitoring of the features in their scope. Each week, a different squad member is responsible for application monitoring, as well as addressing specific customer requests and issues. It’s a great opportunity to be closer to the end-user and collaborate with other Shipup teams.

You have at least 3 years of experience on a product experiencing rapid growth — your work is well-crafted and well-tested for scale.
