About Wolt



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.



At Wolt, as a part of Doordash, we’re building the industry’s most scalable and reliable delivery network to support our three-sided marketplace of consumers, merchants, and courier partners.

What makes our team unique:

Our global Security team aspires to be the world’s most admired security team, with members across EU, UK and North America.

We’re shaping our next generation infrastructure that is hardened from the ground up. This is a rare opportunity - no legacy tech or off-the-shelf product solutions.

The greater team is not just information security - we’re more holistic, and also physical security and safety are a part of our global operations.

What you’ll be doing



The European section of our Global Security Engineering team is looking for a Senior Software Engineer to lead the design, development and operation of security services within our product and cloud security domains. You will be a part of our inclusive, collaborative global team responsible for building “paved paths” - embedding default, secure design practices into our Infrastructure Engineering.



This position is open in our Wolt hubs in Berlin, Germany, or Helsinki, Finland, and will be reporting to the Wolt Director of Security as part of the Global Security Engineering team.

Day-to-day in this role you’ll:

Build and maintain core security products, including but not limited to Remote Access Management, Secrets Management, Tokenization, Knowledge Graphs, Access Control at global scale.

Collaborate with our core infrastructure, product engineering, legal and compliance teams and vendor partners to embed security features and secure design practices in our platform.

Lead the technical direction and roadmap for your area of ownership.

Build and maintain high operational excellence to ensure we operate services with excellence, rigor and durable standards to ensure minimal downtime.

Participate in on-call rotation and promptly respond to on-call events with urgency and rigor. The position requires regular on-call duty, which is separately agreed and compensated.

Manage the lifecycle of security features and improvements over their full life-cycle - from discovery through validation, design, implementation, testing, and operation.

Influence and drive improvements to engineering standards, leverage advancements and LLMs to improve productivity and velocity.

Mentor and coach earlier career engineers, setting and enforcing high standards for operational excellence and software engineering.

Our humble expectations

Have 6+ years of experience as a software engineer in an information security or infrastructure engineering discipline.

Are able to demonstrate a track record of driving improvements to a company’s infrastructure security posture.

Have a breadth of technical experience across various infrastructure and security areas running in large production environments.

Are highly skilled in distributed systems and platforms development using program languages such as Golang, Python, or Java/Scala/Kotlin, on a tech stack built on Terraform, Kubernetes and AWS.

Have a strong work ethic, are organized and follow things through.

Can communicate clearly verbally and in writing, are comfortable with working with design documents, and provide good visibility to issues as they progress.

Have experience solving complex, systemic issues that require creative thinking and solutions.

Have exceptional analytical and investigative abilities with hands-on experience leading root cause analysis.

You are not afraid of getting to learn the technical impact and requirements of regulations such as the GDPR, NIS2, DORA and CRA.

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 want to join us!
