About the Role

The Stitch Fix Inventory and Fulfillment Innovation team is looking for a bright and kind Software Engineer to join us as we revolutionize how Stitch Fix creates and manages inventory assortments to serve every client’s unique style. Our work is core to Stitch Fix’s biggest ambitions for the next decade: building innovative inventory models and fulfillment methods that dramatically expand our ability to serve an infinite range of personal styles.

You'll help us move rapidly from scrappy proof-of-concept releases to scalable, production-ready systems. This role will collaborate closely with partners across merchandising, operations, finance, algorithms, and data platform engineering to power our business with low-latency, highly available, and accurate inventory systems.

You're excited about this opportunity because you will…

Help build the future of inventory at Stitch Fix, balancing fast experimental development with long-term scalable system design.
Join a team that values mutual trust, learning, and personal growth.
Work in a collaborative remote environment, using tools like GitHub, Slack, and Zoom extensively.
Participate in a culture of code reviews, pairing, and open dialogue to help each other grow.
Gain exposure to high-value business processes and directly contribute to Stitch Fix’s client experience.

We’re excited about you because…

You bring 2–5 years of backend engineering experience delivering production services; familiarity with e-commerce, logistics, SaaS, or platform-oriented systems is a plus.
You’re fluent in at least one modern systems language—our core stack is Go and Ruby—and have proven skill with relational databases (e.g., Postgres, MySQL), plus a knack for picking up new technologies fast.
You have solid CS foundations (data structures, concurrency, networking) and you are comfortable analyzing performance on tier-1, high-traffic APIs.
You write clean, test-driven code and you leave the codebase clearer, better-documented, and easier to observe than you found it.
You ship with confidence—using CI/CD pipelines, feature flags, canary releases, and swift rollbacks to deploy safely and keep our performance metrics healthy.
You’ve run production services on a major cloud platform—AWS, GCP, Azure, or similar—and are comfortable with modern observability stacks like Datadog.
You have familiarity with event-driven or streaming architectures—Kafka, Pub/Sub, etc.
You enjoy digging through unfamiliar services, logs, and metrics to find and fix root causes fast.
You are a clear communicator and a collaborative teammate: you translate technical trade-offs into business terms, give/receive thoughtful code reviews, and work easily with product and ops.
You exhibit a strong growth mindset: you actively seek feedback, mentor where you can, and share knowledge to raise the whole team’s bar.
