What you'll do
- Own the architecture of the automation platform, keeping it maintainable, monitorable and scalable
- Design and maintain the data model behind customers, orders, leads, accounts and products

- Integrate with ecommerce platforms through GraphQL APIs, bulk operations and webhooks, and with other systems through REST and SOAP
- Keep syncs reliable despite rate-limited APIs and missing records, and protect write-back data quality

- Enrich and categorise product data using AI models, controlling cost and accuracy
- Run Symfony Messenger queues, cron jobs and background workers, handling failed messages quickly
- Keep production healthy with alerts, digests and runbooks, and reduce alert noise
- Build React front end screens for internal users, and automate sales engagement and SEO tasks
- Raise unit and end-to-end test coverage and keep it running in CI

- Strong attention to detail
- Creativity in finding simpler, better solutions
- A fast learner who picks up new systems quickly
