🛍 The role
Context
We want to tackle ambitious changes in our product in the next few quarters, building innovative capabilities that further differentiate our value proposition. In order to give ourselves the means to achieving this, we’re investing in our product and tech team by opening a third cross-functional squad.
As part of this growth, we are committed to maintaining the same high standard of quality in our user interfaces. We aim to ensure that our frontend best practices are consistently implemented across all squads, supporting our drive for innovation without compromising on excellence.
Missions
- You’ll help us scale Shipup as a mission critical tool for online retailers to offer best-in-class post-purchase experience to their millions of customers.
- You’ll build new product features from start to finish: through conception, research, documentation, maintenance, and polish.
- You’ll build improvements to performance, reliability.
- You’ll work on key initiatives to keep our system elegant and productivity high — such as improving our code, monitoring and infrastructure and building out our testing framework.
- You’ll take part in propagating good practices around front-end development within your squad with the help of our Lead Frontend
- You’ll build and improve processes and internal tools with simplicity and productivity in mind.
🙌 The team
You’ll join a team of nineteen (13 technical and 6 product people) led by Léa (our CPTO) and Florian (VP of Engineering). The team is currently divided into two cross-functional squads. Our aim is to grow that team to twenty-two people by 2025 with the opening of a third squad!
At Shipup, we enjoy working with humble teammates who seek to work collaborative and friendly environment that fosters continuous learning. Our teammates come from diverse educational backgrounds and know how to use & adapt their tools according to the challenges at hand. They care and are proud of how they work, but also why.
They enjoy contributing to the company & product activities that allow them to make an impact beyond the code itself.
Team organization
Our Tech & Product team relies on a robust framework, which balances investment in the projects that are most valuable to our customers with the technical evolutions necessary for the good health and maintainability of the product.
- Cross-functional teams following the squad philosophy: each squad has its dedicated Engineering Manager, Product Manager and Product Designer.
- Best-in-class development practices: pair-programming, continuous delivery, slack time, testing, extensive documentation...
- Quarterly roadmap executed in 2-week sprints with integrated feedback loops
- On-call process : each week, a different member of the team is in charge of application monitoring as well as customer requests and issues — a great opportunity to be closer to the end-user and collaborate with other Shipup teams.

About Shipup
We envision a world where brands keep their promises along the entire customer journey. That's why we enable brands to take control over the most volatile part of the customer experience —the post-purchase— so they increase brand loyalty and save support costs.
Behind this vision, all our coworkers share five core values: ownership, initiative, empowerment, caring, and ambition. These values guide us in our day-to-day decisions, actions, and company culture.
Beyond these five values, Shipup has always wanted to create a multicultural team where each talent has his own mindset that allows us to develop varied and creative ideas.
Multicultural collaboration also allows everyone to cultivate valuable qualities such as empathy, tolerance, and open-mindedness.
