Python Software Engineer - Marketplaces team

In this position, you will be part of our diverse product team that works on our main application.

Your job:

The Marketplaces Development team is responsible for our Python backend, which powers our API and serves as the main entry point for our services. You will also be working on our API integration channels like Amazon, Bol, and eBay, through which we process hundreds of millions of products and orders every day for our customers.

The team regularly builds new user-facing features, for which you will collaborate with the product management team. The team is working closely together with our Infrastructure development and DevOps teams, which are developing many other services that power Channable under the hood.

Your challenges:

• Contribute to our Python components and support new marketplace API’s
• Design, develop, and test new product features
• Collaborate with and review PRs of other team members
• Improve the reliability and robustness of our application
• Work on scalability and performance improvements
• Work together with Product Managers on requirements and issues
• Collaborate with the Integrations department about technical matters
• Own feature or project implementation from initial design to production delivery

We use the following technologies and tools:

• Languages: Python (3.13), SQL
• Libraries: Pydantic, typing, asyncio, aiohttp, requests, logging, Flask, fastapi, pytest
• Tools: Postgres, Redis, GCS, Alembic, mypy, Sentry, Icepeak, Prometheus, Grafana, Loki

Who are you?

You are an enthusiastic developer and a critical thinker. You will interact with a lot of new and external HTTP APIs, you are not afraid of experimenting with them to learn how they work. At Channable we help each other to become better as a team. That's something you believe in as well. Besides the skills you currently have, an eager-to-learn mindset is just as important.

Additionally, you have:

• At least 2 years of experience developing applications in Python
• At least 2 years of experience working with web APIs and related technologies, as we both consume external and build our own web APIs
• Good understanding of HTTP and REST / GraphQL frameworks
• Familiarity with SQL and relational databases, as we use Postgres heavily
• Good working knowledge of Linux, git and the command-line
• High engineering standards: do you like to leave your code cleaner than you found it? So do we!
• EU citizenship or a valid work permit for the Netherlands; you are preferably already living in the Netherlands

And then some things are ‘nice to have’:

• Experience with concurrent applications, because we do a lot of IO via asyncio!
• Having worked with distributed systems before
• DevOps mentality: we believe that software teams should be able to complete the software development cycle themselves, and enable them to bring their code to production themselves, and to do so every day
• Experience with the LGTM stack from Grafana labs (Loki, Grafana, Tempo, Mirmir) as we use this for monitoring, alerting and visualization

Important note: we understand that studies show women may only apply for roles when they feel they meet 100% of the requirements, therefore, we strongly encourage you to apply even if you don't check every box, as we are looking for passionate individuals with potential and a willingness to grow.
