Senior Fullstack Engineer, Wolt Drive
Engineering
Helsinki, Finland
Full-time
About Wolt
At Wolt, we create technology that brings joy, simplicity and earnings to the neighborhoods of the world. In 2014 we started with delivery of restaurant food. Now we’re building the delivery of (almost) everything and you’ll find us in over 500 cities in 30 countries around the world. In 2022 we joined forces with DoorDash and together we keep on dreaming big and expanding across the globe.
Working at Wolt isn’t always easy, but it’s definitely exciting. Here you’ll learn more, build more, and ship more than in most other companies. You’ll be challenged a lot, but also have a lot of fun on the way. So, if you’re a self-starter with drive and entrepreneurial spirit, this could be the ride of your life.
We’re looking for a frontend-leaning Senior Fullstack Engineer to join our Wolt Drive team, building and scaling Wolt’s suite of Logistics-as-a-Service products:
- Wolt Drive: our core delivery-as-a-service product that lets merchants tap into Wolt’s courier partner network and offer fast delivery directly from their own ecommerce channels.
- Wolt Parcel: an ambitious early-stage product with which we aim to reshape traditional parcel logistics across Europe.
- Packages: our consumer-facing logistics service that allows anyone with the Wolt app to send things quickly and conveniently across the city in just a few taps.
What you’ll be doing
In this role, you’ll design and ship end-to-end features across the Wolt Drive product family - from consumer tracking experiences to merchant tools and internal operations portal. You’ll work closely with product, design, and operations to turn real-world delivery problems into simple, intuitive web experiences. As a frontend-leaning fullstack engineer, you’ll focus on great web UX while also diving into backend APIs and integrations when needed.
Day-to-day in this role you’ll:
- Build and own end-to-end features for our customer-facing and internal applications, including the tracking page, Wolt Drive Web, the admin portal, and support tooling.
- Collaborate with engineers, product leads, designers, and operations stakeholders to shape our product experience first-hand.
- Develop reusable, testable, and maintainable UI components and libraries that are shared across teams.
- Jump into backend APIs and integrations when it helps you ship end-to-end features, working closely with backend-focused teammates.
- Balance short-term deliverables with long-term platform health to ensure a maintainable and extensible codebase.
- Champion best practices, mentor other engineers, and continually raise the bar for code quality and developer experience.
Our humble expectations
We don’t expect you to tick every box, but some of the things that will help you succeed in this role are:
- Several years of professional experience building modern frontend applications with React and TypeScript.
- At least a couple of years of experience designing and building scalable backend systems using Node.js, Python, or Go.
- Hands-on experience working with non-relational datastores such as MongoDB, Redis or Cassandra.
- Ability to comfortably read and reason about Python code, even if it’s not your primary backend language.
- Practical experience with CI/CD pipelines, deployment processes, and cloud infrastructure.
- A proven track record of leading and driving technical projects, from idea to production.
- Strong communication skills and experience mentoring and supporting other engineers in their growth.
What we offer
- Highly visible impact - shape how our Drive products work end-to-end, from tracking pages to merchant tools, and see your work used in real life by thousands of businesses and millions of users.
- Real ownership & autonomy - lead architecture and technical decisions, own features from idea to production, and have a strong say in how we build things.
- Smart colleagues - work closely with talented engineers, designers, product folks, and operations teams across Wolt to deliver real, measurable value - not just tickets.
- Growth opportunity - take on complex technical and product challenges, stretch your skills across the stack, and grow as a senior engineer and technical leader in a supportive environment.
