Job Description

Wanderu, a 2016 Inc Magazine Top 15 Company, is a fast-growing startup that simplifies the process of comparing and purchasing ground transportation in more than 40 countries. Wanderu instantly searches over 200 different bus and train operators, routes, and schedules, empowering millions of travelers to find the right trip for them at the best price. Be a part of an exciting, fast-paced startup environment and make a difference in the world.

We hire people who are driven, solutions-focused, and passionate about their work. Our employees never fill a single role and always rise to new challenges with excitement and curiosity.

We are seeking experienced engineers to join our Platform Engineering team. In this role, you will be key to the development and management of the Wanderu technology platform. As a member of this team, you will work closely with others in an exciting environment using the latest technologies including NoSQL and graph search technologies. You will start fast and ship features and fixes in your first week.

About you

You learned CS concepts in school like linked lists, graphs, Big “O” notation, search and sorting, but you wondered why everybody used a relational db for everything.

You thrive in an environment that doesn't get bogged down with red-tape and encourages creative solutions to complex problems.

You desire to have an impact with what you do and want to see what you build help people.

You know that there is never just one path to a solution and that the key is finding the solution that helps move the product and team forward quickly without sacrificing quality.

You like to travel and wondered how technology could have made the experience better.

When you run into every-day problems, you think to yourself “How can I automate this?" or "How can I make this work better?”

When you were a child, you disassembled your toys to see how they worked. Most of the time, the pieces came back together in the right order.

Your engineering career started on the front-end or the back-end, but you feel comfortable contributing across the full stack.
