<div><section><div><p></p><h2>Company Description</h2></div><div><p>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 is not just a delivery app – we’re a technology company building a commerce platform to seamlessly connect our millions of customers with thousands of merchant and courier partners, in real-time across 23 countries and 250+ cities. Our apps (iOS and Android) have the industry’s highest ratings, largely thanks to our customer-first-mindset, which shows in how we build products and run operations. In June 2022 we officially joined forces with DoorDash. Combined, we have a presence in 27 countries, 23 of which operate with the Wolt brand and app. Wolt and DoorDash continue largely independently, with Wolt’s name, brand, product, technology and team.</p><p><strong>Working in Product Development at Wolt</strong></p><p>At Wolt, we’re about getting things done. You’ll probably enjoy it here if you like taking ownership, developing yourself and being around friendly, humble and ambitious people. </p><p>The behind the scenes of Wolt is run by an awesome bunch of over 400+ planners, builders, designers and data crunchers. We call ourselves Product+, as we’re the very core of Wolt’s products, tools and platforms. To build our products, we work in over 37 cross-functional, independent and autonomous teams. Teams are made up of a mix of talented individuals: engineers, designers, data scientists, analysts, and product leads. Each team takes ownership for solving customer problems in the best possible way.</p><p><strong>Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity &amp; Inclusion</strong></p><p>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.</p><p>Join us today to build Wolt together!</p><p>#LI-AJ1</p><p>#LI-Hybrid</p></div></section><section><div><p></p><h2>Job Description</h2></div><div><p>Do you want to <strong>build something completely new from the ground up</strong>?

We are looking for someone eager to create a scalable, highly available real-time messaging service for our 10M+ users. Challenges include real-time messaging, ensuring that messages are reliably stored and delivered, designing and building a conversations inbox with prioritization, attachment, and push notification systems.

Great if you consider yourself flexible enough to work with different languages and technologies depending on the problem we face, but in the beginning, at least strong Node.js skills would be valuable for this role.</p><p>It is also a bonus if you have experience working with real-time projects like chats, multiplayer games, signaling servers for voice/video communications, or breaking news providers so you can demonstrate how to build reliable clients and backends to serve our customers needs.</p><p>We value an attitude of constant improvements and also the ability to create new things from scratch.
