About Wolt
At Wolt, we create technology that brings joy, simplicity and earnings to the neighborhoods of the world. In 2014 we started with delivery of restaurant food. Now we’re building the delivery of (almost) everything and you’ll find us in over 500 cities in 30 countries around the world. In 2022 we joined forces with DoorDash and together we keep on dreaming big and expanding across the globe.
Working at Wolt isn’t always easy, but it’s definitely exciting. Here you’ll learn more, build more, and ship more than in most other companies. You’ll be challenged a lot, but also have a lot of fun on the way. So, if you’re a self-starter with drive and entrepreneurial spirit, this could be the ride of your life.What we’re looking for
We’re looking for a Backend Engineer to join the Wolt AdTech & Promotions team.

- Can build strong working relationships with stakeholders and keep multiple parties aligned around shared goals
- Have hands-on experience with AI-assisted engineering workflows , including tools like Codex, Claude, and agent-based development approaches
- Bring experience with NoSQL databases such as Cassandra, MongoDB, or similar technologies
