Who We Are:

Wayfair believes everyone should live in a home they love. Through technology and innovation, we make it possible for shoppers to quickly and easily find exactly what they want from a selection of more than 14 million items across home furnishings, décor, home improvement, housewares and more. Partnering with Product, Experience Design, Analytics and business members across Wayfair, our Engineering teams ensure that we’re building technology that solves important customer problems in elegant, scalable, measurable ways.

The International Supply Chain (ISC) team is responsible for the planning, movement, and tracking of goods from foreign factories to domestic warehouses. ISC’s 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!

What You Will Do:

Work on projects from ideation and design through implementation
Take creative direction and expand on concept ideas for tactics, with contribution in creative reviews
Work creatively through and around perceived limitations imposed by the delivery platform to create delightful experiences for customers
Evaluate and document any new creative and engineering standards or patterns that could arise from your work
Front-end development – HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and modern tooling
Understanding of web standards, browser performance and best practices
Familiarity of modern design tools (Figma, Adobe After Effects, Cinema 4D)

What You’ll Need

Desire to be part of a fast paced environment. We are hungry to win!
Inquisitive and can do attitude. We are always learning and exceeding expectations!
Ability to create leverage for those around you. We are continually improving!
Broad experience architecting and implementing Front-end web applications
Track-record of being a hands-on developer efficiently building technically sound systems.
Experience with UI/UX.
