What they're building

Rebuilding the e-commerce stack and internal operations tooling strong signal

Today: Own online shops (e.g. vilgain.ro) selling food, protein, sports nutrition, supplements, clothing, cosmetics, home care and equipment

Roles: Principal Engineer · PHP Backend Developer

Requirements mention: monolith · e-commerce stack · ERP · logistika

Inference: the Principal Engineer posting describes splitting the monolith into a more scalable architecture. The PHP Backend Developer posting covers internal tools for Supply Chain, Manufacturing and NPD, with ERP, e-shop and logistics integrations. Together they suggest the shop platform and the internal operations tooling are being rebuilt in parallel.

Scaling supply chain planning, buying and operations strong signal

Today: Online orders with home delivery, plus the B2B and retail store channels named in the postings

Roles: Head of Operations · Product Owner - Supply Chain · Operative Commodity Buyer

Requirements mention: S&OP · demand planning · multi-channel demand · supplier negotiations · ERP systému

Inference: the Product Owner posting describes model-based planning that automatically places most orders across D2C, B2B and retail stores. The Buyer posting says 'zvyšujeme objemy výroby' (we are increasing production volumes). Together with the Head of Operations role, this points to planning for higher volumes across channels.

Expanding production at Brno-Líšeň moderate signal

Today: Functional foods and sports nutrition sold on the site; the Seřizovač posting says 'Naše výroba v Brně-Líšni se rozšiřuje' (our production in Brno-Líšeň is expanding)

Roles: Seřizovač strojů ve výrobě funkční výživy · Pracovník ve výrobě funkční výživy - LÍŠEŇ

Requirements mention: technicky zdatný · práce na směny · obsluha a nastavování strojů

Inference: the machine setter posting says 'technologií stále přibývá' (more and more technology is being added). With a second production role at the same site, this suggests added machine capacity at Líšeň.

Widening the existing home and self-care assortment moderate signal

Today: Site categories already include Cosmetice and Îngrijire casă

Roles: Product Manager Self-Care & Cleaning (2) · Product Manager - Home assortment

Requirements mention: supplier sourcing · sell-through · launch execution · basic knowledge of cosmetics regulation

Inference: two NPD product manager roles, one for self-care and cleaning and one for home across kitchen, household and sport, suggest these existing non-food ranges are being widened. The postings give no launch count.

Product development, packaging and claims compliance for a larger range moderate signal

Today: Own-label foods and supplements on the site, e.g. clean-label vitamin gummies and New Zealand whey protein

Roles: R&D Specialist - vývoj potravin & doplňků stravy · Packaging Designer · Regulatory & Claims Specialist

Requirements mention: tvorba a validace receptur · larger product ranges · packaging system · internal library of approved claims · Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006

Inference: the Packaging Designer posting asks for a packaging system for 'larger product ranges', which suggests the food and supplement range is expected to grow. The Regulatory & Claims role is building a shared library of approved claims to support that growth.

Market and channel expansion: UK, DACH and own stores strong signal

Today: Country online shops such as vilgain.ro, plus physical stores described in the retail postings

Roles: Country Manager UK · DACH Social Media Specialist (Prague location) · E-commerce & Performance Manager · Sales Assistant Bratislava · Sales Assistant Praha

Requirements mention: localization · Shopify · B2B / wholesale · Native-level German · prodejního ducha

Inference: the UK posting describes 'building the next chapter of Vilgain in the UK', and the DACH posting describes a social presence built 'from the ground up'. This points to active entry into the UK and German-speaking markets. Separately, the Bratislava posting is for a new store.

How to use this

If you're applying: Check the fit lines against the posting before applying. Most roles are in Praha (9) and Brno (8), and none are remote. Shift work is stated for the machine setter, inbound team leader and Praha sales assistant roles. Several postings ask for English, and the DACH social role requires native-level German.

If you're selling or recruiting: DEV (5) and NPD (4) have the most open roles, followed by MARKETING (3). Ask which of the Praha or Brno roles are being filled first. The Bratislava store, London country manager and Regulatory & Claims roles are single postings. The 'IT Operations Specialist - Brno' posting lists Praha as its location, so confirm the site.
