We’re Ocado Technology. We design and build the systems and technology that power ocado.com, the world's largest online-only grocery retailer and groceries.morrisons.com, the world’s fastest growing online supermarket!
Behind the public face, we write and build all our own systems, from
website to warehouse control systems, van routing systems to mobile
apps, every system involved in the operation has been carefully crafted
by our large team of talented software engineers. We are constantly
pushing the limits of what our technology can do. To accelerate this
work, we are expanding our development team and building our newest
development centre in Barcelona Spain. We are a rapidly
expanding development team, backed by an established tech company from
the UK. We plan to grow this new development centre to 200 people over
the next 3 years - and that's based on our existing growth curve and
conservative growth estimates (rather than the potential growth of a
startup!)
As our business evolves, we are writing a next generation, cloud
based grocery platform, Ocado Smart Platform, which will be used to run
Ocado, Morrisons and many other international retailers in the future.
Join us as a Senior Java Developer and you’ll have the opportunity to
work across a wide range of technology, with some exceptionally smart
people, to create an unrivalled platform.
As a Senior Java Developer for the Range Management Systems
department, you will be joining a new team in Barcelona focused on
developing the central product catalogue systems. The RMS system is the
central repository for our product data providing data feeds and
webservices to other systems within the business, such as our webshop
and warehouse management systems, as well as providing integration
points to external data providers. It has a front end written in GWT for
data management, which we are looking to migrate to Angular or React as
part of an extensive rewrite of the product.
We use Java and Scala, relying on Spring and Akka to deliver our
projects. We use AWS for all our new deployments. We embrace agile
development techniques, and run all our projects as Scrum projects as
part of a cross functional team. Alongside the ownership and ongoing
development of all new functionality, there is particular focus on
performance, scalability and maintainability. We are looking for a
dedicated Senior Java Developer to join our OSP Fraud Detection team as
we continue to push the boundaries of online shopping.
