Software Engineer – Level Shoes – Chalhoub Group

This Software Engineer role is with Level Shoes, the luxury footwear retail concept under Chalhoub Group, a partner and creator of luxury retail experiences across fashion, beauty, jewellery, watches, eyewear, and art de vivre categories for over seven decades. This role sits within Level Shoes’ technology function, supporting the digital and e-commerce infrastructure behind a genuinely high-end luxury retail brand.

The work involves building and maintaining software systems that support Level Shoes’ retail and e-commerce operations — likely spanning areas like the online shopping platform, inventory or order management integrations, and internal tools that support store and warehouse operations. Because luxury retail carries particularly high expectations around presentation and reliability, software quality here directly affects how polished and trustworthy the digital shopping experience feels to a discerning customer base.

This suits a software engineer with solid full-stack or backend development skills who takes genuine pride in build quality and attention to detail — qualities that matter more in a luxury retail context than in a purely functional e-commerce environment. Experience with e-commerce platforms or retail technology systems is a strong asset given the domain.

Being part of Chalhoub Group means working within a large, established luxury retail organization with genuine technology investment behind its brands, offering more resources and infrastructure than a smaller independent luxury retailer could provide.

In luxury e-commerce, the digital shopping experience carries the same expectations of polish and reliability that customers expect from an in-store luxury boutique experience, and this Software Engineer role is directly responsible for building the technology that delivers that standard for Level Shoes. A glitch, slow page load, or clunky checkout experience matters more in luxury retail than in mass-market e-commerce, because it directly contradicts the premium brand promise customers are paying for. Reliable, well-built software also supports operational efficiency behind the scenes — accurate inventory and order management systems reduce costly errors and keep the retail operation running smoothly across both digital and physical channels. As part of Chalhoub Group's wider luxury retail portfolio, strong technology work at Level Shoes also contributes to the group's broader reputation for operating luxury brands to a high standard across every customer touchpoint, not just in-store. Good engineering here is ultimately what lets a genuinely premium retail experience translate convincingly into the digital space, which matters enormously as luxury retail continues shifting toward online and omnichannel shopping.

Building software for a luxury retail brand gives you genuinely differentiated experience compared to standard e-commerce engineering work, since the bar for polish, reliability, and attention to detail is distinctly higher — skills that are increasingly valued as more premium and luxury brands invest heavily in digital experience. You'll build practical, hands-on experience with e-commerce and retail technology systems, which is a strong, in-demand specialization across the broader retail tech industry, not just within Chalhoub Group. Being part of a large, established luxury retail group with real technology investment also means access to better infrastructure, engineering practices, and resources than a smaller independent luxury retailer could offer, accelerating your own technical growth. Chalhoub Group's seven-decade history and broad portfolio across fashion, beauty, jewellery, and more also gives strong engineers real internal mobility — opportunities to work across different luxury brands and technology challenges within the group over time. For engineers building a career at the intersection of technology and retail, luxury e-commerce experience is a genuinely distinctive credential, and strong performance here is a solid foundation toward senior engineering or technical leadership roles within retail technology specifically. It's also work you can point to with real pride — the kind of polished, high-standard product that stands out clearly on a portfolio compared to more generic e-commerce work.
