Zalando Shenzhen
Our Shenzhen tech site is where a highly skilled team pioneers new e-commerce and content solutions. We create experiences that merge inspiration and entertainment. With a focus on customer-first digital innovation, our seamless, inspiring journeys empower our customers to discover, explore, and shop curated fashion that fits their fast-paced lives.
Our Ways of Working
In our Shenzhen office, we are focusing on Zalando’s e-commerce and content solutions. Our growing team of highly skilled experts is inclusive, values-driven, humble, trustworthy, playful, and bold.
How we build products always starts with the customer. Every product division begins by identifying a real customer need or problem. Using qualitative and quantitative data insights, we ask: “Is this a problem worth solving?”
By investing early in understanding the problem, we build empathy, stay focused on what matters, and prioritise the right initiatives at the right time.
That said, we don’t wait for perfect answers. We move fast, test ideas, and learn from iterations as we go. Our customers never fail to surprise us, and because they’re the best source of truth, we learn directly from them what works and what doesn’t.
We work collaboratively across disciplines towards one goal: deliver solutions that truly make a difference and design remarkable experiences for our customers.
The Zalando Tech Radar helps teams navigate emerging and established technologies. Each one is scored using a ring-based system and comes with insights on pros, cons, usage, and lessons learned from across Zalando. .
Maintained by our Principal Engineering Community, the Tech Radar is a living resource, hosted and organised via the tech-radar GitHub Enterprise repository.
Giving and receiving feedback is a big part of our culture. It’s how we grow. Our performance evaluation framework helps us recognise performance and growth. It lays the foundation for making fair, fact-based decisions, and it highlights strengths and opportunities for growth. Additionally, it provides us with the opportunity to give each other feedback that is relevant and based on our performance models.
Alongside this, we encourage feedback through zBeat, our quarterly pulse survey, where employees share their thoughts on culture and engagement.
