Each team takes ownership for solving customer problems in the best possible way. We call ourselves Product+, as we’re the very core of Wolt’s products, tools and platforms.

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

What’s our team?

We are the Consumer Pricing Team, responsible for designing and implementing the pricing strategies that balance customer value, market competitiveness, and company profitability. Data is at the heart of everything we do — we leverage A/B testing and data-driven insights to develop dynamic pricing models to optimize delivery and service fees. We’re dedicated to making pricing transparent and easy for customers to understand, integrating it seamlessly into the entire ordering flow. Working closely with data science, business, and operations teams, we ensure our strategies continuously improve the customer experience while driving business growth!

Who are we looking for? 

Wolt’s service was launched in Japan in 2020 and since joining forces with DoorDash last year, we have now grown into a few product development teams locally in Japan. We are now looking for a few Backend Kotlin Engineers and Frontend Engineers to build a new team - the Consumer Pricing Team!

As a Web Engineer on our team, you’ll collaborate with skilled web and backend engineers, along with our product lead and designer, to work closely with business and operations teams. Together, you’ll design and implement pricing configurations in our internal tools and run A/B testing experiments, all aimed at achieving the perfect balance between customer satisfaction and company profitability. Your work will directly impact how millions of customers experience pricing on our platform!
