About Wolt
Wolt is a technology company that makes it incredibly easy to discover and get the best restaurants, grocery stores, and other local shops delivered to your home or office. Wolt works together with over 35,000 restaurant and retail partners as well as with over 75,000 courier partners across 23 countries and 140+ cities.
Our apps (iOS and Android) have the industry’s highest reviews, largely because of our customer-centric approach to how we build our products and operations. For example, our customer service team responds in a matter of seconds, in the customer’s own language.
We’ve raised more than €707M in financing from renowned U.S. and European based investors, such as ICONIQ Capital, Tiger Global, DST, Prosus, KKR, Coatue, 83North, Goldman Sachs, Highland Europe, and EQT Ventures & EQT Growth, among others. We've also been fortunate enough to receive some appreciation and recognition for our hard work along the way: Apple selected Wolt’s app as their Editors' Choice, Wired named the company one of the "Hottest Startups in Europe," Forbes included our CEO Miki Kuusi on its 30-under-30 in Consumer Tech list, and the Nordic Startup Awards named Wolt Company of the Year.
Wolt is more than just a food and retail delivery operation – in fact, we are built upon a solid foundation of state-of-the-art technology. Our internal tooling enables us to ramp up new cities efficiently and provide excellent customer service, our own logistics platform allows us to optimise our couriers' work to get you the food you want as fast as possible, and our restaurant platform allows restaurants to offer exciting food experiences for our customers in an optimal way.
We work in small teams with high ownership, with each team focusing on a key area of the Wolt product stack. Each and every one of our product team member has a say in where we are going and what solutions we implement. We work with a passion, but we haven't forgotten how to have fun along the way!
Our tech stack consists of Python, Kotlin, Scala, AWS, MongoDB, React, Kubernetes, Kafka, TypeScript, Swift, Flutter React Native
Position
The team builds high-quality and scalable data infrastructure and tooling and owns the company's core data logistics, as well as the central data processing and analysis infrastructure. As our data volumes keep on growing our tools need to be scalable and robust to support this. Each team member has ownership of a certain tool and envisions for its future - is the tool serving its purpose and how should it function in the future? The development work is done together inside the team, one sprint at a time.
The team has also identified the direction they want to take in the future and e.g. data mesh architecture, data catalogs, geo-replication, stream processing and automatic data quality monitoring will be in their focus. Sound like challenges you’d also want to be working with?
You’ll be the first DevOps Engineer in the team, so you’ll have a huge impact and you’ll take ownership of building, maintaining and automating our data infrastructure. You’ll also be responsible for access management, making sure the data we’re processing is protected and the environment we work in is secure.
The team is based in Helsinki HQ but welcomes a new member to the Helsinki HQ or working entirely remotely elsewhere in Finland, Sweden, Germany, Denmark, or Estonia now and in the future!
Your qualification
To succeed in this role you should be passionate about data engineering and machine learning. You’ll be a great asset to the team if you have experience in building and maintaining infrastructure in the cloud environment (preferably AWS), very good knowledge of Linux servers and bash scripting (Python or other programming language will be a plus). You’re great at building CI/CD pipelines, you know your way around Docker and Kubernetes, Terraform (or similar IaC tool) is not a mystery to you and you’ve worked with databases like Postgres, MongoDB, Snowflake. Previous experience with Kafka will be a significant advantage.
Additional details
The position will be filled as soon as we find the right person, so make sure to apply as soon as you realize you really, really want to join us!The compensation will be a negotiable combination of monthly pay and Wolt stock options. The latter make it exceptionally easy to be excited about our company growing and doing well, as you'll own a piece of the pie.
