WHO WE ARE
Hej, my name is Wadie, Engineering Manager within the Fulfilment Locations subdomain in Ingka Digital (IKEA). Our subdomain focuses on the systems that are being used in our warehouses and over 420 stores worldwide. Our systems are being used by over 170,000 co-workers and serve over 4 billion online customers globally!
To ensure our stores can adapt to the ever-changing needs of our customers, it is important to innovate and therefore we have decided to transform our system landscape from legacy monoliths to a highly scalable and extensible event-driven architecture. Considering our scale this is a truly challenging adventure we have set ourselves on.
WHAT YOU WILL BE DOING
As part of this transition to a digital future for IKEA, the Fulfillment Locations subdomain is looking for software engineers to build the foundation for this initiative and work in the Automation Orchestration Layer (AOL) team.

We make sure that distributions centers and stores worldwide can fulfil their online orders in an efficient and timely manner. The AOL team is at the forefront of innovation in IKEA, and we help to solve real problems for our co-workers.
As a person you have a proven ability to develop high quality code using and applying good practices. You are not afraid to share your opinion and join conversations with other product teams to set common engineering standards. You have a curious nature and actively acquire new knowledge, skills, champion new methods, digital systems and processes to improve performance. Doing so, will enable you to change direction based on new ideas, approaches, and strategies. You will be empowered to work agile and through continuous improvement within the software engineering function. By encouraging simplicity, efficiency, ownership, accountability makes you easy to collaborate with others to achieve our common goals.
To be successful as a Software Engineer you have advanced training in computer science or similar experience through keeping up with current best practices in your areas of expertise. In addition, you have demonstrable experience in working in an Agile and DevOps environment and thrive on taking full accountability for the products and the customer experience. You get energized by delivering high quality software in an agile environment, with a focus on well-functioning software ecosystems, democratic data, smart infrastructure and building a resilient foundation, which is all part of our Technology strategy.
