Lyst is a global fashion shopping platform founded in London in 2010 and catering to over 160M shoppers per year. We offer our customers the largest assortment of premium & luxury fashion products in one place, curating pieces from 27,000 of the world's leading brands and stores. In 2025, Lyst joined Zozo, operators of Zozotown, the leading fashion e-commerce platform in Japan. This partnership marks a bold new era for Lyst, as we accelerate our vision and work together to transform the future of fashion shopping through AI and technology. 

At Lyst, we obsess over the customer, providing a search & discovery experience which offers inspiration, fulfilment, and personalisation. We believe that fashion is amazing but shopping for fashion often isn't, and use our technology, data and creativity to bring more joy, greater choice and fewer fails. Our mission is to help fashion shoppers make better choices and help fashion partners find better audiences as the category-leading destination for every fashion shopper.

The Role

Lyst is looking for a Software Engineer to join their Data Platform team. The engineer will help build upon and improve our customer facing analytics ingestion pipelines that power our business intelligence and decision making.

You will work in a fast-paced environment with a high level of autonomy. While your work will be peer reviewed and subject to approvals, it is important that you are able to liaise with both team members and wider partners in the organisation to gather requirements and lead on appropriate solutions.

You will be maintaining and improving a system that handles a high volume of traffic so experience with cloud and data warehouse infrastructure will help you in this role (we use AWS, Cloudflare and snowflake). Familiarity with infrastructure as code will also help when updating our cloud architecture (we use terraform).

We place a large focus on data quality so you'll be expected to review the small picture (data contracts via versioned schemas) and the wider picture (data integrity and data completeness across tables and databases). We also value the ability for team members to think of ways we can improve data quality and drive those initiatives across the business.

Within the first three months, you will be able to:

• Contribute to every part of our system, ranging from code and tests to infrastructure changes.
• Ensure the stability of our system by implementing and improving monitoring and observability tools.
• Write resilient code that is well tested.
• Be curious — not just the code, but the architecture of our platforms and everything that enables the business to thrive.
• Gain expertise over our tools and services: Python, Docker, Github Actions, Snowflake, AWS
• Participate in all team ceremonies and have direct input in the team's ways of working.

This is a high-trust, supportive, and collaborative environment where you will have plenty of opportunities to make an impact on your team and the wider company. We value attitude as much as we do direct experience—we want to hire people to grow into the role and beyond.

About the team:

• Python is our bread and butter.
• The wider data platform team uses dbt, Snowflake, and Looker to model, transform, and expose data for analytics and reporting across the business.
• We use Docker and Kubernetes to manage our production services.
• We use Github Actions for continuous integration and deployment. Lyst deploys new changes to production more than 500 times a month.
• The Data Platform team is one of Lyst's fundamental teams, and the data we manage is critical for the business. We have a strong relationship across the rest of the organisation, and almost all of Lyst engineering engages with us on a regular basis.
• We care about robustness and integrity in our pipelines and use observability tools to monitor.

Requirements

• Experience in developing robust and secure software solutions and data pipelines. 
• Effective communication skills, comfortable working with technical and non-technical individuals and teams.
• Proficiency in developing with Python.
• Experience with delivering software solutions and data pipelines within public cloud technologies and architecture (perferably AWS exp).
• Experience with containers (Docker) and container orchastration.
• Experience with Infrastructure as Code (we use Terraform).
• Experience utilising monitoring, observability and logging tools.
• Experience with git, gitOps, github actions.
• Exposure or experience with cloud data warehouse/data platforms (we use Snowflake). 

Things that matter to us:

• You have a passion for utilising your software engineering skills in data engineering.
• You enjoy building sustainable, robust software that scales and automate and drive efficiencies at every chance.
• You are excited to learn and equally share your knowledge with peers.
• You enjoy problem solving as an individual but also solving problems within a team or with wider colaboration across teams.
• You take pride in code ownership and maintaining responsibilities to a high level with good documentation and test coverage.
• You understand the importance of good Data management practices and broader Data Governance principles and their impact on things like Data Quality. 
• You effectively support and maintain production data pipelines, ensuring monitoring and observability is in place and respond to sustain service levels and data consistency within Data platforms.

Benefits

• Our Ways of Working: We all come into the office on Tuesdays and Thursdays , with the option to work remotely or come into the office on the other days. We believe that in person collaboration and community spirit is super important, which is why we spend some of our time in the office and some of our time at home.
