Additional Information

Meet the Acceleration Team - we're Wix's go-to group for getting things done fast. As part of the Chief Technology Officer (CTO) group, we help turn big ideas into reality by speeding up key projects. We have several complete development teams that can work independently, making us super flexible and ready for any challenge.

Our teams go where they're needed most in the company. They might start something new, help speed up an existing project, or test out fresh ideas. Most of what we build are features that customers will use directly. We typically work on each project for a few months before passing it to the permanent team who will maintain it.

To make this work, we need developers who are:

• Great at getting things done

• Skilled enough to jump into different types of code

• Able to deliver quality work fast

• Flexible and ready for change
