ABOUT WRIGGLE
We're Wriggle - an award-winning app and website based in the heart of Bristol. We're on a mission to transform cities into thriving independent hubs of amazing food & drink venues that people can't wait to discover - in the process, changing the way that food & drink businesses operate.
It's an exciting time at Wriggle as we embark on a journey across the country. We're currently operating in 3 cities - Bristol, Brighton and Cardiff, and will expand into cities across the country from late 2019. Technology is at the forefront of our expansion and we have big projects in the pipeline that will dramatically extend the impact of Wriggle. These are ambitious plans - and we want fantastic people to deliver them.
As a result, we’re excited to build-out the skillsets of our technology team, alongside our CTO, Clement, and developer, Jon. If you love food, tech and Wriggle, this is an amazing opportunity to apply your skills in doing something you love, that has an impact on the cities around you.
You will have plenty of responsibility, in an engaging fast-moving environment - and have a direct impact on the products and the decisions that direct it. It will be hands-on and rewarding - and you will play a key part in developing a Bristol-based consumer champion.
WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR
We are looking for an experienced Back-end or Full Stack Javascript Engineer who is hungry to apply their skills in a fast-paced environment and can fit within a multidisciplinary team with amazing individuals. Your primary focus will be to help us build and maintain the Wriggle API and associated backend services; you will also have the opportunity to help running it at scale on our infrastructure. Our tech stack is built upon: Node.js, express, MongoDB, ElasticSearch, Redis, AWS...
Our backend infrastructure already has challenges that will interest a keen engineer, including: activity spikes of up to 2000 users, a white-label Stripe Accounts integration, a robust payment system able to sustain hundreds of customers at once. We’ve now got a series of groundbreaking projects in the second half of 2019 that will be integrated alongside these… This is hugely rewarding and your work will have a direct influence as we continue to scale Wriggle. In short, there will be plenty of opportunity to apply your skills and play an exciting role in the development of a champion of local food & drink - in an enjoyable and fast-moving culture.
