Your challenges:

In this position, you will be part of our diverse product team that works on our main application. Your day-to-day challenges will include:

• Research external eCommerce APIs, understand their value for our customers and build Python integrations with them
• Work together with Product Managers and own feature or project implementation from initial design to production delivery
• Collaborate with team members in agile software development by actively contributing to code reviews, sprint planning and retrospectives
• Improve the reliability and robustness of our application
• Work with varying technologies, such as strictly typed Python (3.14), SQL, Postgres, GCS, mypy, asyncio, aiohttp, pytest, Sentry, Grafana, Redis and many more!

Who are you?

You are an enthusiastic developer, a critical thinker, and an excellent collaborator. Besides the skills you currently have, an eager-to-learn mindset is just as important. You don’t shy away from taking ownership and responsibility for your projects.

You also have:

• A drive to build with Python, professional experience preferred.
• 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.

You would stand out from the crowd if you had:

• Experience with concurrent applications, because we do a lot of IO via asyncio!
• Having worked with distributed systems before
• DevOps mentality: at Channable engineers complete the software development cycle themselves, bring their own code to production, and 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

Practical requirements:

• EU citizenship or a valid work permit for the Netherlands; you are preferably already living in the Netherlands
• Available for at least 32 hours a week, with two days spent at the Utrecht office

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.

The team:

In this position, you will be joining our Marketplaces Product group. The group is responsible for 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 is responsible for its own roadmap and works on a Python and React codebase. The group is split into several specialized sub-teams and consists of a skilled and diverse group of Backend, Frontend and Full-stack engineers who work hand-in-hand with QA Engineers, Product Managers, and UI/UX designers to deliver value to our customers.

If this makes you enthusiastic, you can also take a look at some of our open-source work at https://github.com/channable to get a feeling of how we work together and what our code looks like.
