WW is looking for candidates to help change people’s lives. We are a global wellness technology company inspiring millions of people to adopt healthy habits for real life. We do this through engaging digital experiences, face-to-face workshops and sustainable programs that encourage people to move more, shift their mindset and eat healthier while enjoying the foods they love. By drawing on over five decades of experience and expertise in behavioral science, we build communities in order to deliver wellness for all.

Your Role:

Not every company provides you with the opportunity to impact the lives of millions. We do. As a Manager, Software Engineering at WW, you and your team will solve real-world problems and deliver bespoke solutions for our members. In 2021, your team has been tasked with delivering a global commerce platform using cloud-native approaches to software development and leading technologies such as event-driven architectures and microservices. As we strive to create an inclusive environment where people want to work, you'll ensure your team is full of fun, passionate, and diverse people who are technologically excellent and have a human- and member-centric focus approach to solving problems.

Your Responsibilities:

Empower your people by articulating the technical vision/strategy to deliver the commerce systems, including milestones and measurable results, then help your team by removing any obstacles in their way. Show the way by always learning yourself, then develop your team by creating opportunities for them to grow and achieve their career goals. Communicate your technical direction and requirements to both technical and non-technical stakeholders across the Engineering teams, as well as the Product and Design organizations. 

About You:

You are a results-driven engineer with at least 3 years of engineering management experience, a Computer Science background or relevant full-stack/backend engineering experience or you are senior level software engineer looking to move into Engineering management. You still like to code in languages such as Java (Core Java) and JavaScript, and you possess a strong understanding of data structures, object-oriented design principles, performance tuning and troubleshooting. You have a passion and track record for hiring and developing diverse teams of software engineers.

At WW, it is our priority to cultivate a diverse and inclusive workplace. We are committed as individuals, as an organization, and as fellow humans, to advocate for and support our employees, our members, and our communities. We are proud to be an equal opportunity employer and we do not discriminate on the basis of sex, race, color, creed, national origin, marital status, age, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, veteran status, or disability.
