Senior Software Developer, Consumer

 

S’more about the team

We are a close-knit group of engineers of different stripes - developers, designers, and product owners - who are working together to solve interesting e-commerce and supply chain problems around how people eat. Sometimes, this involves implementing features to improve the user journey and making it easier for our customers to buy amazing food. Other times, this means creating stable software solutions that keep our distribution centers running.

We are looking for a Senior Software Developer to help implement solutions & write beautiful code, working with various team members as we build out our new vertical of vitamins and supplements and the infrastructure that supports it. This is your chance to shape the future of a brand and fuel HelloFresh’s continued growth in an experiment-driven, fast-paced environment.

Lettuce share what this role will be responsible for

• Be able to design-develop-deploy software solutions for various HelloFresh markets & brands to deliver the best experience for our customers and internal users
• Take ownership of the architecture, design, development, deployment, and operations of the solutions that you develop, using DevOps practices, pair programming, and other cutting edge methodologies
• Be able to spend time learning and developing technical skills, and show off your technical chops via ambitious goal

Sound a-peeling? Here's what we're looking for

• An active, solution-oriented member of autonomous, cross-functional agile teams collaborating with Product Owners, Frontend and Backend Engineers, Designers, and Business Intelligence teams
• An individual able to develop an in-depth understanding of HelloFresh’s core products and architecture, and act as an ambassador for state of the art software solutions and industry best practices, while offering support and mentorship to colleagues
• 4+ years of working experience in an agile software development team
• 2+ years of experience working with React JS (preferred) or another similar Javascript framework (React Native, Angular, VueJS)
• Hands-on experience in continuous delivery deploying to customer-facing applications
• Experience writing unit/integration/function test cases, as well as with formalized testing methodologies (i.e. TDD, BDD)
• Experience with server-side technologies like Next.js, Nest.js, Nuxt.js, or Remix
• Experience with monitoring and observability tools such as Honeycomb, Sentry, Datadog, New Relic
• Experience with experimentation (i.e AB, multivariate)
• Bonus if you have exposure to mobile app development, either through React Native or native iOS/Android
• Would be a plus if you had working knowledge of one of the following backend languages: NodeJS, Python or GoLang
• Solid hands-on experience working with AI coding agents (e.g., Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot) beyond casual experimentation. You use AI agents as thought partners to onboard on unfamiliar codebases and navigate new areas of the code with confidence. You have a practical sense of how the context you provide to AI tools - specifications, constraints, examples - shapes output quality, and a developing awareness of how agentic outputs can fail, with growing habits around verifying, testing, and setting boundaries on AI-generated work.
