Senior Backend Engineer, Operations Alliance (f/m/x)
HelloFresh
This is a backend engineering role focused on building and operating logistics systems for HelloFresh's global supply chain. You'll work with a cross-functional team to design event-driven microservices that manage delivery operations - from routing to tracking. The domain is physical logistics, so you need to understand real-world constraints like trucks, warehouses, and delivery windows. You'll have end-to-end ownership, from architecture to deployment and operations, using Go, Python, Kafka, Kubernetes, and more.
Brakuje: expected number of office days per week, on-call frequency and compensation details.

- ✓End-to-end ownership from idea to production
- ✓Autonomous cross-functional team with real decision power
- ✓Opportunity to work on physical logistics problems with direct business impact
- ✓Global collaboration with international teams
- ✓Modern tech stack (Go, Kafka, Kubernetes, AWS) with gradual migration from legacy
- !Hybrid model but no specific number of office days mentioned
- !Operational responsibility (on-call) implied but not explicitly described or compensated
- !Stack includes both Go and Python, but only Go is listed as a plus - unclear if Python is expected
- !Use of 'AI tooling' buzzword without clear definition
- !Legacy PHP codebase to be migrated, which may involve maintenance tasks
- •Designing and building microservices in Go (and occasionally Python) for logistics operations
- •Working with Kafka to implement event-driven communication between services
- •Deploying and managing services on Kubernetes with CI/CD
- •Collaborating with product managers and business stakeholders to define requirements
- •Writing integration and functional tests following BDD approach
- •Monitoring production systems using Prometheus, Grafana, or Datadog and responding to incidents
- •Integrating third-party carrier APIs and external systems
- •Contributing to the gradual migration of legacy PHP services to modern stack
Oferta dla doświadczonych specjalistów (Senior).
Mid-level engineer with strong fundamentals in microservices, testing, and event-driven architecture; willing to learn Go and logistics domain. Has some experience with Kubernetes and Kafka.
Not for junior engineers or those who prefer purely greenfield development without operational ownership. Also not for engineers who are not interested in learning about physical logistics operations.
