About Fabriplay
Fabriplay is a first-of-its-kind fashion-tech SaaS platform built specifically for bespoke clothing businesses.

This role requires someone who can think beyond coding — someone who can architect scalable systems, lead product engineering, make critical technology decisions, and build infrastructure capable of supporting customers across global markets.
You will work directly with leadership and play a critical role in defining the future of Fabriplay’s technology stack.
