Senior Magento Developer – Level Shoes – Chalhoub Group

Level Shoes, Chalhoub Group’s luxury footwear e-commerce platform, is hiring a Senior Magento Developer to lead development work on its online retail platform, a high-traffic, transaction-critical system that needs to deliver a premium shopping experience at scale. Magento is a well-established e-commerce platform, but running it well for a luxury retailer at this scale requires senior-level expertise in customization, performance tuning, and integration with surrounding retail systems.

Expect the role to involve leading feature development, mentoring junior developers, and taking ownership of performance and stability during high-traffic periods like major sales events and new collection launches. Level Shoes’ luxury positioning means the platform’s performance and polish directly reflect on brand perception, this isn’t a role where good-enough performance is acceptable.

Chalhoub Group’s deep experience in luxury retail across the region gives this role access to established infrastructure and a mature e-commerce operation to build on. A strong candidate has genuine senior Magento development experience, ideally in a high-traffic retail context, and is comfortable both writing code and guiding less experienced developers.

Level Shoes' entire online revenue runs through its Magento platform, which means platform stability and performance during peak moments, major sales, new collection drops, seasonal campaigns, translate directly into whether the business captures or loses significant revenue in those windows. A Senior Magento Developer who builds and maintains a genuinely robust, well-optimized platform protects the business from the kind of outages or slowdowns that are especially damaging in luxury e-commerce, where customers have high expectations and plenty of alternative places to shop. Beyond uptime, thoughtful Magento customization directly shapes the online shopping experience, page load speed, checkout smoothness, personalization features, all of which affect conversion rates and average order value in a measurable way. Because this is a senior role with mentoring responsibility, strong performance here also multiplies impact by raising the capability of the broader development team, reducing the risk of costly mistakes from less experienced developers working without senior guidance. Chalhoub Group's luxury brand partners also pay attention to how well their products are represented online, so platform quality has reputational implications that extend into the group's broader brand partnership relationships, not just Level Shoes' own revenue.

Senior Magento development experience on a high-traffic luxury e-commerce platform is a strong, differentiated credential in a competitive e-commerce development job market, since Magento expertise at this level of scale and polish is genuinely harder to find than generic e-commerce development experience. Working at Level Shoes specifically provides exposure to the particular performance and user-experience demands of luxury retail, a niche that commands premium compensation and respect across the broader e-commerce development field. The mentoring responsibility built into this senior role also develops leadership and technical guidance skills that position strong performers well for engineering lead, architect, or engineering management roles down the line, both within Chalhoub's broader digital portfolio and elsewhere. Because Chalhoub operates across a wide range of luxury retail brands and platforms, senior developers who perform well here often find a credible path toward broader platform architecture or technical leadership roles spanning multiple brands within the group. Luxury e-commerce continues to grow as a share of overall retail in the region, giving this specialization durable relevance rather than a shrinking niche. For a senior developer who wants both strong technical challenge and a path toward engineering leadership, this role offers a well-regarded, resume-strengthening platform to build on.

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or equivalent practical experience
• Several years of senior-level Magento development experience, ideally on high-traffic e-commerce platforms
• Strong skills in Magento customization, module development, and performance optimization
• Experience integrating Magento with payment gateways, ERP, and other retail systems
• Proven ability to mentor and guide junior developers
• Comfortable managing platform stability during peak traffic events like major sales or launches
• Strong understanding of e-commerce best practices in a luxury retail context
