Engineering Team Lead, Merchant Integrations

Company Description

Wolt is a technology company that makes it incredibly easy to discover and get the best restaurants, grocery stores and other local shops delivered to your home or office. Wolt is not just a delivery app – we’re a technology company building a commerce platform to seamlessly connect our millions of customers with thousands of merchant and courier partners, in real-time across 23 countries and 250+ cities. Our apps (iOS and Android) have the industry’s highest ratings, largely thanks to our customer-first-mindset, which shows in how we build products and run operations. In June 2022 we officially joined forces with DoorDash. Combined, we have a presence in 27 countries, 23 of which operate with the Wolt brand and app. Wolt and DoorDash continue largely independently, with Wolt’s name, brand, product, technology and team.

Working in Product Development at Wolt

At Wolt, we’re about getting things done. You’ll probably enjoy it here if you like taking ownership, developing yourself and being around friendly, humble and ambitious people.

The behind the scenes of Wolt is run by an awesome bunch of over 400+ planners, builders, designers and data crunchers. We call ourselves Product+, as we’re the very core of Wolt’s products, tools and platforms. To build our products, we work in over 40 cross-functional, independent and autonomous teams. Teams are made up of a mix of talented individuals: engineers, designers, data scientists, analysts, and product leads. Each team takes ownership for solving customer problems in the best possible way.

Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

We want to have all sorts of people in our team – people like you and me, and people different from you and me. To be able to work with diverse teammates – when it comes to gender, age, ethnicity, life background, sexual orientation, political views, religion, or any other personal trait – we consciously aim to offer equal opportunity for everyone to work with us. This is because we believe diverse teams make the most thought-through decisions and build things in the most inclusive way.

Job Description

If you're passionate about helping developers achieve their true potential then you're definitely the right person for this role. But it doesn't stop there. So what’s in it for you?

• Not only do you get to lead a team of amazing engineers, but you also get to work with a team that's focused on building a developer portal.

• The team’s vision is to help external developers build faster integrations with Wolt, which in turn reduces costs for our merchant partners and increases the number of partners we have on the platform. This means the team will be working on new products with low technical debt and potential to make a huge impact.

• Your role in shaping the team’s future and growth will be significant. You'll be an inspirer, facilitator, and enabler for the team to do what they do best by supporting your team members’ personal growth, hosting regular 1on1s, and taking part in recruitment.

• We also offer the freedom of being hands-on or hands-off, since we believe that different people have different strengths. If you are one of those unicorns, with both leadership abilities and the capability to contribute hands-on, there is room in this position for hands-on work as well! We are thrilled if you have technical knowledge in fields such as backend engineering with JVM or frontend development with React + Typescript.

This role will be based in Berlin
