Who We Are
Wayfair's Customer Tech organization is at the heart of everything our customers experience at Wayfair.com. We own the Next.js-based monolith that powers the full customer-facing storefront — the platform that hundreds of engineers build on every day to bring the world's largest online home destination to life. We are a team of builders, architects, and community leaders who believe that great infrastructure unlocks great product. We set the standards, govern the codebase, and ensure every team shipping into our monolith has the tools and guardrails to move fast and do it right.
We are looking for a Staff Software Engineer to serve as the front-end platform authority for Customer Tech. You'll be embedded at the platform layer, working autonomously to drive technical direction across approximately 200 engineers contributing to a single codebase.
You'll step into an active, high-stakes environment: we're in the middle of a major Next.js and React upgrade, and we need someone who can go deep, diagnose performance degradations, align front-end teams across the organization, and govern our way through to a stable, scalable outcome. This is a role for someone who thinks at the architect level and leads through technical credibility.
You'll act as a community leader and technical authority across Customer Tech and the broader Wayfair front-end engineering community — partnering with engineering leads, mentoring engineers across seniority levels, and establishing patterns that scale to hundreds of contributors.
