As part of our Catalog Intelligence team, you are jointly responsible for the heart of idealo – the inventory. We cooperate with around 50,000 e-commerce shops in Europe, from small specialist shops to large marketplaces such as Amazon and eBay. Our customers have access to several hundred million items, which we display in the form of products in our content catalog.

One of our unique challenges is to structure this range in a customer-centric manner to provide our customers with the best overview of the entire e-commerce market. We provide a variety of services for product creation and maintenance throughout the product life cycle. The next big challenge for us is the continuous automation of product creation in AWS.
