We are looking for a Senior Backend Engineer to join our AdTech engineering team ๐ The AdTech team, a bit more than 1-year-old and is on a task to turn Wolt into the most attractive destination for advertisers (brands or merchants) seeking to connect with a highly engaged audience.
While Wolt is best known as a food delivery platform, we have been grazing on new (product) green fields over the last year. We have expanded our offering to cover verticals such as grocery, pharmacy, apparel - and so much more - on top of restaurant delivery. ๐ซ However, we want to remain the most lovable and easy-to-use product around. Itโs a daunting challenge, but we strive to maintain a high level of consistency across customer touchpoints, maintain a coherent product and design language, and make it exceptionally intuitive for Wolt customers to discover the products they want and get them delivered to them in as little as a few minutes. Building an advertising platform will therefore be a complex challenge and requires serious engineering effort to be done elegantly and with a high dose of relevance and even subtlety. To succeed in this journey, we also cooperate very closely with our Doordash peers in the U.S..๐บ๐ธ
Since it is the very early days in the project, you will play an integral part in defining the way the team will work, participate in architecture, CI/CD discussion meetings and decide on tools and best practices.
A few examples of challenges and projects we are working on:
- Optimizing the performance of our ad server
- Building new ad management UI for our merchants and brands
- Ensure that our ads are relevant and of high quality
- Figure out how to efficiently store and query ad performance data
Youโll collaborate closely with the designer, product manager and other engineers in your team. Weโre obsessed with high-ownership teams at Wolt, which means youโll get to work in a culture of freedom and accountability. Our teams are in charge of their own roadmaps, how they build services and products, and how they solve challenges from new features to the core scalability of their solutions.
๐This role can be based in one of our tech hubs in Helsinki or Stockholm, or you can work remotely anywhere in Finland, Sweden, or Estonia. Read more about our remote setup here. If you live outside of these countries - not to worry! We provide relocation support to help you make your way to Finland or Sweden.
Requirements
We highly value experience in large integration projects ๐ API design ๐ ๏ธ and some full-stack experience (i.e., able to help with TypeScript and React when needed) ๐ฅ๏ธ
We are using Kotlin as the main language in our backend development and we're on the lookout for an experienced professional with a strong background in building backend services using Kotlin/ Java/ JVM or similar modern languages! ๐ Your mission: deliver modern, testable, and maintainable code. Our services are up and running on AWS, and we harness the power of Docker & K8 for our CI/CD pipelines. You'll be working with PostgreSQL, Redis, and MongoDB databases ๐๐ฉโ๐ป๐จโ๐ป
But there's more! We're looking for someone who: ๐ Takes ownership beyond the obvious ๐ Is motivated to learn new things and share knowledge ๐ Loves collaborating with different teams across the organization
