About this team

Our dozens of microservices and event-driven architecture handle thousands of requests and events per second, ingest over 1TB of data per day and process over $1MM per day in sales, while maintaining a 99.9+% uptime. We have 80 engineers across our teams and our biggest selling point is our focus on supporting our engineers’ career growth, whether that’s as a technical contributor or people leader. As an engineer in our product development org you will work closely with Product Managers, Designers, and QA, and work in an agile, fast-paced environment (that respects work/life balance).
