  • Be hands on and contribute to the implementation, but at the same time offer technical guidance and mentoring to other engineers.
  • Identify and improve parts of the platform to make it more robust and scalable.
  • Your code will be used at scale and you are expected to think in that mindset when building features.
  • We launch fast and iterate often. Concretely, this means that within your first few weeks, you will bring live functionalities that impact many merchants and shoppers.
Who you are
  • You have 7+ years of software engineering experience.
  • You have experience with building things in JavaScript and using a framework (Vue.js or Preact is a plus).
