Descrição da oferta de emprego

About Scento

Scento is Europe's largest perfume decant website. Founded in 2024 and headquartered in Paris on Place Vendôme, with a second office in Berlin, Scento offers more than 1,000 original designer and niche perfumes from a roster of 200 houses as perfume decants: 2 ml, 5 ml and 8 ml vials plus a 30 ml bottle on most perfumes. Niche perfume samples and designer fragrance samples let people discover a scent before they commit to a full bottle. Every perfume is an original bought from authorised European retailers, and every bottle passes a 12-point intake check at Scento's ISO-certified facility before it is decanted.

Scento serves customers in 27 European markets and ships to 26 EU countries. In 2026, Scento's annual revenue is more than €30 million, online and offline sales combined. On Scento.com, monthly decant sales in September 2026 were 3.2 times those of January 2026. Scento says it sells more than 3 million perfume decants a year, about one every 10 seconds. In November 2025, Scento announced it would invest €25 million over three years in European perfume discovery.

The role

Scento runs its own storefront in Next.js and its own commerce backend on Medusa, Node.js, TypeScript and PostgreSQL, with a checkout built in-house on Stripe. It serves customers in 27 European markets, and seasonal peaks such as the perfume advent calendar put real pressure on every layer.

As Staff Full-Stack Engineer you set the technical direction. You make the hard architectural calls, raise the bar for performance and reliability, and pull the engineers around you forward. Success means a platform that stays fast, safe and easy to change as Scento scales.
