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

Running a restaurant or a store while fulfilling delivery orders is hard work that can be made easy with automation. This is where in-store integrations come in. We help our merchant partners automate the manual work with our API and integration offerings.

Through our integration products, we ensure that the in-store experience for our partners is best in class, making it a breeze to work with Wolt. Be it orders going to POS (Point of Sale) systems automatically or venue management, our in-store integrations have our merchants covered.

As an Engineering Team Lead you will be leading our new in-store integrations team to make sure that we continue building integration products that delight our partners when managing their daily operations.  At the same time your role will encompass serving as an inspiration, facilitator, and enabler to empower the team to excel in their areas of expertise.
