Working in Product Development at Wolt

At Wolt, we’re about getting things done. You’ll probably enjoy it here if you like taking ownership, developing yourself and being around friendly, humble and ambitious people.

The behind the scenes of Wolt is run by an awesome bunch of over 700+ planners, builders, designers and data crunchers. We call ourselves Product+, as we’re the very core of Wolt’s products, tools and platforms. To build our products, we work in over 60 cross-functional, independent and autonomous teams. Teams are made up of a mix of talented individuals: engineers, designers, data scientists, analysts, and product leads. Each team takes ownership for solving customer problems in the best possible way.

Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

We want to have all sorts of people in our team – people like you and me, and people different from you and me. To be able to work with diverse teammates – when it comes to gender, age, ethnicity, life background, sexual orientation, political views, religion, or any other personal trait – we consciously aim to offer equal opportunity for everyone to work with us. This is because we believe diverse teams make the most thought-through decisions and build things in the most inclusive way.

Join us today to build Wolt together.

We are looking for a Product Lead to join the Autonomous Deliveries Team. The Courier group at Wolt operates with the mission of providing a high-quality delivery experience for our Consumers, becoming the most-loved platform for Couriers, and being the most efficient logistics engine in the industry.

Autonomous deliveries is a new team within the Courier Product group at Wolt that is focused on revolutionizing logistics by integrating autonomous vehicles such as drones and robots into Wolt’s delivery operations. Logistics is at the heart of Wolt’s business, and mastering it can mean the difference between creating seamless, delightful customer experiences and dealing with operational chaos.

The Product Lead for Autonomous Deliveries will drive the vision and execution of building scalable and end-end autonomous delivery experiences for our consumers, working cross-functionally across Consumer, Merchant, and Support product teams at Wolt, as well as leading critical integration discussions with Wolt’s autonomous delivery partners. This high-visibility role shapes the future of delivery, transforming each delivery into an opportunity to build delight and loyalty.

As a Product Lead, you will work with a cross-functional team of incredibly talented engineers, designers, product people, and analysts in a high-visibility role. You will be responsible for defining the roadmap and setting the vision for your team. This involves leading multiple projects and cross-team product initiatives across the entire product lifecycle, partnering with business and operations stakeholders, and understanding our end-users better than anyone.

You could come to this role from a multitude of different backgrounds, but ideally, you have

• Plenty of experience as a Product Manager/Lead, preferably in e-commerce or on-demand delivery. Experience within the autonomous delivery space would be a plus.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, and have proven ability to influence cross-functional teams

• A mixture of data analysis skills, engineering understanding, and business savvy with the go-getter attitude of a "could-be start-up CEO"

• Expertise in how to work with and coach cross-functional teams, at least with developers, finance, data experts and engineering teams

The position will be filled as soon as we find the right person, so make sure to apply as soon as you realize you really, really want to join us!

The compensation will be a negotiable combination of monthly pay and DoorDash RSUs. The latter makes it exceptionally easy to be excited about our company growing and doing well, as you’ll own a piece of the pie.
