THE ROLE & THE TEAM

At Zalando, we often test the limits of Salesforce, offering several opportunities to build unique one-of-a-kind solutions. We are building a Fashion CRM on Salesforce which requires us to connect to various systems/microservices at Zalando and present actionable insights in Salesforce.

There has never been a better time for a salesforce resource to join Zalando. Welcome to the world of possibilities and see end-to-end business processes across business units.
As a Senior Salesforce Engineer at Zalando, you will design, build, enhance, and maintain existing and new force.com applications that will be used across Zalando in various business functions. You will challenge our status quo and help us define best practices for how we work.
