What the job involves

- We recently moved our Product and Tech teams to a pod model:
- A pod is a small group, 1 to 4 people, that owns a single mission end to end: from scoping and building through cleaning, enablement and watching adoption. Pods form around a mission and dissolve when it's done. Everyone is a pod owner, from the most junior person to the most senior, because ownership is the point
- Your domain is your product-area home, the part of our software suite you know best. Pods change with every mission; your craft and your domain don't
- We are looking for a Software Development Engineer to shape Discover, the part of our software suite where brands monitor their presence and their competitors’ presence, analyse and benchmark their performance and uncover what's driving it

- This role plays a key part in our Tech & Product strategy, directly supporting company-wide objectives around customer retention, data trust, and the development of new AI-based insights
- Contribute to building new features from initial architecture choices to the marketable product impulsing innovative solutions and the most recent technologies
- Collaborate with team members to maintain and improve existing features by fixing defects and doing continuous refactors to modernize the technical stack and reduce the overall architecture complexity
- Act as a Frontend expert, leveraging deep expertise in React and Redux, to guide the team with valuable insights, improvements, and suggestions on best practices regarding frontend code
- Architect efficient database schemas for new implementations or contribute to improve existing ones
- Work closely with product management, designers and QA to define user requirements and translating them into reliable, intuitive features
- Evangelize code quality through writing well-architected, structured code, unit tests, while following best industry practices
- Be a driver of AI-led improvements across our tech stack, documentation, tooling, and organization
- Refactor, optimize and constantly drive for improved efficiency and code health and reduced complexity
- Technical Stack:
- Languages: TypeScript, Python, Java
- Frameworks: Node.js, React, Serverless, Express.js
- Database & Data Platform: Databricks, MySQL, Redis
- Search: ElasticSearch
- Cloud providers: Amazon
- Main AWS technologies: Lambda, Docker on ECS/Fargate, Step functions, Kinesis, SQS, SNS, S3
- Tools: Jira, Sentry, VSCode, ..
- Versioning tool: Git, Github

Application process
- Intro call with Talent Acquisition, to get to know each other (30 min)

- Team fit with the engineers and peers you'd build alongside
Our take
While there is a multitude of tools that track business and financial performance, Launchmetrics combines these to provide an end-to-end solution to measure brand performance. Its flagship product provides optimization and analytical tools that enable decision makers to make smarter decisions around their branding efforts, and to increase market visibility and revenue.
For fashion, luxury, and beauty industries, the brand is the most important financial asset, with enterprises spending upwards of $250 billion per year on activities directly linked to brand reputation. Launchmetrics has effectively tapped into this market, powering the majority of global fashion shows with a growing customer base including Dior, Fendi and Shiseido.
Its acquisition of DMR, its main competitor, cemented the company's position as the undisputed category leader in brand performance. In 2024, it was announced that Lectra (a major player in the fashion, automotive and furniture markets) would acquire the majority of the capital of Launchmetrics, a partnership which will allow Launchmetrics to accelerate the development of its offering on a global scale.
