About Catawiki

Catawiki was founded in 2008. It was originally designed as a website where collectors could manage and keep track of their collections online. Visitors can still add new items to the existing catalogue of collectibles. Unsurprisingly, the name Catawiki is a combination of the words ‘catalogue’ and ‘wiki’. In 2011, Catawiki began hosting weekly auctions in various categories, including art, antiques, classic cars, watches, jewellery, fashion, books, and stamps.

Position

As we are expanding internationally at a high pace, you will be at the center of our business development - it is a very exciting time to join the Logistics team! Your team is responsible for offering cheaper and better ways of shipping sold items from sellers to buyers - and we are starting to offer these cheaper and better shipping methods in many more countries.

Our Logistics team, like all our Engineering teams, is interdisciplinary: you will cooperate directly with back-end, frontend (we already have a frontend engineer in the team to support you!), iOS, and Android engineers, and together you are responsible for all shipping and logistics functionality of our Catawiki apps and our web app. You will create software that helps both our buyers and our sellers to optimise their delivery workflow. Apart from the engineers, your other team members are the QA, the UX designer, the Product Manager, and your Tech Lead Manager, who leads and guides the engineers on a daily basis.

What You'll Do

Here at Catawiki, you will make an impact by improving and delivering product innovations for the Catawiki platform. Along with other Engineering team members, you will build beautiful and adaptable web front-ends on top of scalable microservices. Most of these serve our sellers and buyers, and some are geared towards our own customer services and internal operations teams.

You make sure that your web components will work well and be responsive to: desktop, tablet, and mobile screens. And by measuring and monitoring system performance, you optimise the performance of your products.

In addition, you will use A/B experiments, agreed upon with your Product Manager and User Experience Designer, and backed by data analysis, to add product features and deliver the best user experience on the platform.
