Our core business model revolves around producing precisely what our customers desire, precisely when they desire it. As pioneers in this space, we combine sustainability with on-demand personalization, enabling individuals and businesses to express their unique identities through bespoke creations. Join us to be part of a global leader in the exciting world of personalized apparel and lifestyle products!

As we continue to expand our business, we are seeking a curious and passionate individual to join our team as the Frontend Engineer (f/m/d) in Leipzig or remote within Germany (the role requires occasional travel to our Leipzig HQ).

What Will Your Role Be

You'll join the Product Discovery team — the squad that shapes how customers explore, search, and find the right product. We own the full discovery journey: search, curated collections, product listing pages (PLPs), and product detail pages (PDPs), all powered by our Product Information Management (PIM) system. Our work directly influences whether a customer finds the right product at the right moment — and in a made-to-order world, that moment matters enormously.

What You´ll Do 

• Build and evolve our search experience — autocomplete, faceted filtering, results display, and zero-results handling

• Develop and maintain PLPs and PDPs, ensuring fast, accurate, and engaging product presentation at scale

• Integrate with our PIM system to render rich, structured product data reliably across all discovery surfaces

• Own and improve curation tooling that enables merchandisers to craft compelling collections and campaigns

• Optimize Core Web Vitals and perceived performance across high-traffic discovery pages

• Collaborate with backend engineers, data scientists, and search specialists to bring relevance and personalization features to life

• Contribute to frontend architecture decisions — component design, rendering strategies (SSR, SSG, ISR), and scalability

• Work in an agile cross-functional squad with designers, product managers, and analysts

What You´ll Bring

• Strong proficiency in TypeScript and React — component design, hooks, rendering strategies, and performance patterns

• Experience building search or browse UX: autocomplete, filtering, facets, pagination, or similar discovery interfaces

• Familiarity with e-commerce concepts: product catalogs, variants, attributes, and the data complexity that comes with them

• Comfort with SSR frameworks such as Next.js and an understanding of how rendering choices affect UX and performance

• Experience consuming REST or GraphQL APIs and working with structured, data-heavy backend responses

• A keen eye for UI detail — you care about how things feel, not just whether they work

• A product mindset: you connect your work to customer outcomes, not just technical delivery

• Fluency in English

Nice to have: 

• Experience with Node.js for BFF layers or API middleware

• Familiarity with AWS services for frontend delivery (CloudFront, S3, Lambda)

Why Should You Join Us

• Flexibility & Trust: Take advantage of flexible working hours and remote work options within Germany, all based on mutual trust, ensuring a healthy work-life balance that suits your needs.

• Time to Recharge: Enjoy 30 days of paid vacation and relish family-friendly working policies that cherish your precious moments with loved ones.

• Transparency & Growth: Attend regular General Assemblies (GAs) to be part of our vision, knowing you contribute to a bright future. Benefit from our in-depth onboarding program and visit production sites in the Czech Republic to deepen your understanding of our operations.

• Learn & Excel: Elevate your skills with German and English language courses, interdisciplinary workshops, and training, empowering your professional growth.

• Perks That Delight: Benefit from exclusive corporate discounts on a wide range of renowned brands and indulge in remarkable discounts on our products. Additionally, enjoy access to irresistible discount campaigns tailored just for you.

• Inspiring Spaces: Work in modern offices designed to inspire creativity, boasting a rooftop terrace and cozy kitchens for breaks and after-work events.

• Celebrate Success: Join our lively company events, from unforgettable summer and Christmas parties to exciting team-building activities and engaging workshops.

• Be You & Belong: Embrace a warm and inclusive atmosphere where authenticity is celebrated, with no dress code to limit your self-expression. Bring your four-legged friends along for an uplifting work environment.
