• Whatnot

Whatnot is a livestream shopping platform and marketplace backed by Andreessen Horowitz, Y Combinator, and CapitalG. We're building the future of ecommerce, bringing together community, shopping and entertainment. We are committed to our values , whether working remotely or from one of our offices. We are building a team that has experience from top tech, retail and payments platforms in the world.
We're innovating in the fast-paced world of live auctions in categories including sports, fashion, video games, and streetwear.

The platform couples rigorous seller vetting with a focus on community to create a welcoming space for buyers and sellers to share their passions with others.

And, we're growing. Whatnot has been the fastest growing marketplace

in the US over the past two years and we're hiring forward-thinking problem solvers across all functional areas.

• Opportunity Size

Retail disruption is one of the largest opportunities in the startup space today. Livestream shopping is taking off around the world – a $300B GMV market in China that's grown 100% YoY. Whatnot is bringing it to the world through a community-first approach, starting in the U.S. where retail is a $5T market opportunity

• The role

Payments

at Whatnot makes the money flow, and orders happen. The team's scope is large, encompassing pay, fraud & shipping. Engineers own these entire flows from experience, to vendor integrations, to inhouse infrastructure.

Last year we moved >$150m through these pipelines and shipped millions of products to users and this year we're aiming to 10x those numbers.

A critical piece of technology we are building is Ledger - an auditable high-scale source of truth at the heart of our payments infrastructure.

You will bring your creativity, technical expertise and curiosity and make an enormously impactful contribution - early - to one of the fastest growing marketplaces in history.

The team in Ireland will own this from initial spec to delivery and operations.
We're looking for experienced engineers. The most important skills you'll need to have are making sound decisions and shipping high-quality products fast. We look for engineers with great product instincts who can own whole projects from start to finish.

The software team has a lot of individual responsibility and many more freedoms, so we need to hire people we can trust.

Your ability to make good trade-offs and exercise good judgment is essential to us.

• About You

5+ years of software engineering experience.
Knowledge of multiple programming languages (we primarily use Python, Elixir, JavaScript - knowledge of these in particular not required).
Excellent product instincts. You first think about users rather than the best technical solution.
You can mentor others, and prioritize building inclusive, supportive teams.
Project owner - you've strong ownership instincts and can own projects from inception to production, and beyond.
You are known for shipping products and features lightning-fast.
You're an excellent problem solver and don't need to be told exactly what to do.
You're open to doing work across the stack when required.
Ability to pick up on new technologies very quickly.
Proven track record of delivering features.
Experience with payment systems, infrastructure or experiences. (nice to have)
