Zalando operates a massive omnichannel fashion marketplace spanning 25 European markets with 50M+ active customers, backed by a logistics network of 12 fulfillment centers and regional warehouses. The tech stack reflects operational scale: Kotlin + TypeScript + React on the frontend, SAP (S/4HANA, BTP, Business Data Cloud) + Salesforce + PostgreSQL + AWS for backend systems, with Kubernetes, Elasticsearch, and real-time streaming (GraphQL, Lambda, SQS) for order and recommendation pipelines. Active hiring is accelerating across engineering, logistics, and operations — a staffing-driven expansion driven by demand forecasting, transport management, and next-generation order-engine initiatives.
