Senior Backend Engineer - Bazel team

Building Wix’s 3000 microservices and 32M lines of code requires high-scale CI/CD. Bazel is our build tool of choice and we front its Scala integration and work on building additional sophisticated features, world-class pipelines, and highly scalable services to support them. We do hardcore backend engineering and specialize in Bazel, its tooling, and integrations.
