Hey, you look like you might be our new ย Senior Frontend Engineer, Supply and Demand Forecasting
Engineering
Stockholm, Swedenย ยท Helsinki, Finlandย ยท Remote
Full-time
At the fast growing scale of the Wolt business our operational efficiency benefits greatly from having automation for managing supply (how many courier partners are online) and demand (how many orders are being placed by customers). For us itโs a clear win-win situation, but it takes an entire team to make sure that this is possible. ๐ช So, in order to achieve our mission to build the best tools for keeping the fine balance between supply and demand of delivery services at any given time and place, weโve come to the point where we decided to strengthen our ranks by adding one more Frontend Engineer to our new Supply and Demand team to balance out our own team needs!
Supply and Demand teamโs mission is to make Wolt cities efficient for our customers, merchants and couriers, as well as making running the cities smooth for our operations people. This is done by building tools and features that help achieve balance between supply (number of Courier Partners online) and demand (home delivery orders from consumers) by surfacing the forecasts to both our Courier Partners on the Courier App and and Wolt operations, as well as creating ways to dynamically influence the supply and demand. As a frontend engineer you will have a chance to work on our product from many angles: developing various features, working on the internal back office tool, implementing changes for the courier facing application, etc. At the moment, the team consists of one Frontend Engineer, several Backend Engineers and Data Scientist as well as Engineering Team Lead and Product Lead. The main programming languages on the team are Typescript (React), Python, and Scala and the team works closely with Data Scientists so this is a great chance to learn a lot about data science if you have a knack for it!
Lastly, this role can be based in one of our tech hubs in Helsinki or Stockholm, or you can work remotely anywhere in Finland, Sweden, Germany, Denmark, and Estonia. Read more about our remote setup here.
Our humble expectations
๐ You have several years of experience experience using modern Typescript and React in the frontend and building solid scalable services and well-structured applications using them
๐ If you have some React Native and app development experience (Android or iOS) on your hands - even better, we consider that a plus!
๐ Youโre a dedicated person who is pragmatic, doesn't shy away from going outside of their comfort zone, and demonstrates curiosity and willingness to keep continuously learning.
So, TL;DR if you have several years of experience in dealing with the front end of the house, canโt wait to learn new things (including working with the backend side of things if youโre up for it), have an interest in tackling scalability challenges and building some cool stuff, then be sure to drop us a line! ๐ซ
