Wayfair Software Engineer II, Inbound Order Management in Boston, Massachusetts
<p><em>Candidates for this position are preferred to be based in Boston, MA and will be expected to comply with their team's hybrid work schedule requirements.</em></p>
<p><strong>Who We Are:</strong></p>
<p>Wayfair runs the largest custom e-commerce large parcel network in the United States, approximately 1.6 million square meters of logistics space. The nature of the network is inherently a highly variable ecosystem that requires flexible, reliable, and resilient systems to operate efficiently. </p>
<p>We are looking for a passionate Back End Software Engineer to join the Inbound Order Management team. Inbound Order Management team is responsible for the planning, movement, and tracking of goods from foreign factories to domestic warehouses. Our job starts once a supplier is ready to place an order from one of their factories and it doesn’t end until those goods are delivered to a fulfillment center. Through deep integrations into the supply chain, automation, and exception handling we are able to provide world-class service and visibility to our suppliers. Our efforts allow them to focus on their core business while we worry about all the complexities involved in getting their goods imported. We aim to perfect and scale our offerings cost-effectively through technology. Are you interested in building technology for the real world where anything can happen (container shortages, record high ocean rates, 1800+ containers fall into the ocean in bad weather, etc.)? You never know what will happen next!</p>
<p>In this role you will be working with individuals inside and outside your immediate team to build features for our platform to provide fulfillment information to Wayfair. The individual will need to collaborate with multiple teams to build complex system interactions and integrations. As part of our team, you will be solving complex problems that have a direct impact on our supply chain operations and end-customers.</p>
<p>If you love to solve real business problems at scale, in a fast-paced, high growth, and agile environment, this is the role for you.</p>
