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.
Wolt’s AdTech & Promotions team is building the systems that power how restaurants and brands grow on our platform. From campaign creation to optimization and forecasting, we develop tools that help advertisers make smarter decisions and drive measurable results. As we expand our offering, we are investing in new capabilities that combine real-time data, scalable systems, and intuitive user experiences to unlock the next phase of growth.
We’re looking for a Staff Engineer to join the Wolt AdTech & Promotions organization, who can drive technical direction across this space and help us build reliable, scalable systems that directly impact revenue and advertiser success.
This position is based in London
At Wolt, this role provides a rare opportunity to work on challenging AdTech problems at scale, where technical decisions directly impact revenue and user experience.
Our compensation follows a total compensation model, combining a competitive base salary with DoorDash RSUs.
You will play a key role in building and evolving the next generation of advertisement tools and platforms, shaping how advertisers create, manage, and optimize campaigns across Wolt. This is not just about maintaining systems, but about defining and scaling new capabilities in a fast-growing domain.
As a Staff Engineer, you will have end-to-end ownership and high autonomy, with the ability to influence architecture, product direction, and engineering practices across teams. Your work will have clear, measurable business impact, directly contributing to revenue growth and advertiser success.
You’ll be part of a global company operating at scale, collaborating with teams across Europe and the US, and solving problems that span multiple markets, use cases, and customer segments.
This role also offers strong opportunities for career growth and scope expansion, whether through deep technical leadership, cross-domain influence, or progression toward more senior individual contributor roles.
Alongside the technical challenge, you’ll work with talented engineers and leaders in a diverse and international environment, shaping both our systems and engineering culture while mentoring and learning from others.
We’re committed to growing and empowering a more inclusive community within our company, industry, and cities. That’s why we hire and cultivate diverse teams of people from all backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. We believe that true innovation happens when everyone has room at the table and the tools, resources, and opportunity to excel.
