About this Senior/Staff Backend Engineer - Talent Pool role at Wrike
More about Wrike Team
At Wrike, everyone’s voice matters - our Scrum teams (with FE, BE, QA, UI, UX, and a PO) are at the heart of decision-making. Backend engineers in product teams handle both business logic and technical challenges, while technical teams ensure smooth internal tooling, CI/CD, and a great developer experience. We invest in our architecture, deploy daily with hardly any merge conflicts, and encourage backend engineers to change things up, work on technical improvements, and help shape product plans by sharing ideas with POs. As we move toward a microservice architecture, product teams enjoy more ownership and flexibility, with support from the technical teams. Our goal is to make clients’ lives easier by building simple, powerful solutions that work for everyone - from startups to large enterprises.
