We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer with Python expertise to join our engineering team. We design, build, and run the internal data platforms that keep the company moving. Our systems power the metrics, experiments, and tools that every OLX team uses to make decisions.
Here are some of the practical projects we drive:
Tracking ecosystem: we handle the flow of tracking data from millions of users across many countries. This data is the backbone of the company’s main metrics and helps everyone make informed decisions.
Change Data Capture service: we built our own CDC system to capture and replicate database changes in near real-time. It keeps data fresh and consistent wherever it’s needed.
Experimentation platform: we run the in-house A/B testing and feature flag system. It supports 40+ experiments every month, helping teams test ideas and improve the product.
Console: we maintain the internal self-service platform that brings together UI and backend tools in one place, so employees can easily access and manage data products and internal systems.
We’re an experienced team that takes ownership from design to release. We keep quality high but stay pragmatic: we help each other out, share knowledge openly, and raise issues early to keep things moving. We value different perspectives and believe the best solutions come from open discussion and collaboration. If you like working on systems that matter, in a team that trusts each other and values both skill and teamwork, you’ll feel at home here.
