THE ROLE

We’re looking for a hands-on Software Engineer to help scale our subscription-based e-commerce platform. This is an opportunity to work at the heart of an entrepreneurial tech team, shaping how Oddbox grows and supporting the drivers of our success.
You’ll collaborate closely with other engineers, our Product team, and our Data team to design, build and deliver high-quality technology and customer experiences. While experience as a Software Engineer is essential, we’re pretty open on which languages and frameworks you’ve worked with. Our current stack includes Python, Django, Typescript, React, React Native, Next.js, and AWS serverless technologies (Lambda, S3, DynamoDB, API Gateway, SNS/SQS).
At Oddbox, engineers own their work end-to-end. You’ll work across frontend, backend, and platform infrastructure, with learning opportunities throughout your time at Oddbox to expand your skills.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

️ Design, build, and deliver software that supports Oddbox’s growth and mission.
️ Collaborate with engineers, product managers, and data specialists to shape solutions.
️ Contribute across the tech stack – frontend, backend, and infrastructure.
️ Take ownership of code quality through testing, code reviews, and documentation.
️ Work in agile sprints, supporting requirements gathering and estimation.
