Wayfair is a leader in the eCommerce space for all things home. Though we're well-established as a market leader, we've done a great job of staying true to our startup roots in the ways that matter, including a work hard-play hard work culture, exciting new product development, small, collaborative engineering teams, and countless opportunities for advancement as we continue to grow. Our six supply chain engineering teams are working on some highly exciting new product development initiatives and, in turn, are growing at a rapid pace. We're looking to bring on collaborative, growth-minded "manager doers," leaders who thrive on solving complex challenges, and taking ownership over the entire product development lifecycle with a global impact. We are hiring across a variety of teams and highly visible, customer facing new product development initiatives.

Currently, we have teams working with Python, React, PHP, and C#, so there is quite a bit of variety in terms of the tools you would be using. What You'll Do: Managing a team with cross-functional/cross-platform scope, including a capable leadership bench, and addressing problem areas quickly through appropriate performance management. Managing projects that span multiple sprint lines including project planning, resource allocation, team building. Identifying engineering problems in the areas of your ownership and developing solutions to them in conjunction with your teams and other appropriate stakeholders. Coaching tech leads through running productive and efficient sprints. Monitoring sprint metrics like velocity, focus factor, burndown and ensuring consistently high sprint performance. Identifying new workstreams to incorporate into your product area, while also working with engineering and product stakeholders to identify product gaps to fill and incorporating those in your teams. Identifying points where the product, analytics, and engineering roadmaps don't align. Working with both teams to address these issues, ensuring appropriate prioritization of engineering driven tech investments alongside new feature development. Ensuring that the right information is available to make high level architecture and technology decisions. What You'll Need A highly skilled software engineer, with at least a year of experience leading a team. Experience with cross-functional consensus building and influencing without authority. Previous experience designing systems at scale. Strong effective troubleshooting skills and issue resolution techniques. Expertise with at least one server-side programming language. (The bigger the toolbox, the better!) SQL Database design, development and performance optimization experience. You have exceptional problem-solving skills, experience developing technical solutions to complex problems. Who We Are Wayfair is one of the world's largest online destinations for the home.
