Full Job Description
About The Opportunity

A vertically integrated food company runs on thousands of decisions a day: what to order, what to make, what to move, what to ship, what to cut. Those decisions happen across dozens of facilities, hundreds of operators, and a supply chain that is growing in both scale and complexity. When the tools are good, operators act on accurate information and our customers get exactly what they ordered - fresh, on time. When the tools are bad, food is wasted, orders go short, and the experience breaks down.

We're looking for a product-minded senior front-end engineer to help make those tools excellent. You will be a key individual contributor on our Supply Chain Platform team, designing and building the operational interfaces our supply chain runs on. Your work will turn complex, real-time data into clear decisions for the people planning, ordering, producing, and shipping our food every day - and it will scale directly with the business. You'll partner closely with product, design, data, and backend engineers, and you'll have room to grow into a front-end anchor across our Supply Chain organization.

The Impact You Will Make
  • Developing complex, data-intensive web applications that serve as the system of record for a business workflow
  • Making informed technical decisions through collaboration with peers and documenting them for the team
  • Real-time data visualization and event-driven architectures
  • Working with public cloud infrastructure
  • Developing and deploying containerized front-end applications
  • Modern orchestration systems like Kubernetes
  • Participating in oncall rotations and owning the operational health of the services you ship
  • Working closely with product managers, engineering managers, designers, and operations partners to build UIs that measurably improve how operators work
  • Creating clean, well-documented, and easily maintainable code
  • Deep understanding of system telemetry and user interaction data to catch regressions before operators feel them
  • Operational excellence across the full development lifecycle
  • Comprehensive test coverage that provides confidence in shipping to production
  • Strong opinions on front-end architecture, UI/UX, and application performance
  • Translating complex business requirements into intuitive user experiences


What You Bring to the Table
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or a related field.
  • 5+ years of experience in front-end software engineering.
  • Proven experience in implementing high-quality, scalable user interfaces that back real operational workflows.
  • Deep proficiency in a modern front-end framework. We use Next.js with TypeScript.
  • Comfort reaching into a backend codebase when a feature requires it - we ship features end-to-end.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to troubleshoot complex technical challenges across the stack.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, including the ability to lead technical discussions with product, design, and operations partners.
  • Project management experience is a plus


Got These? Even Better
  • Experience with complex supply chain, logistics, or warehouse management systems
  • Strong proficiency in Next.js and Node.js
  • Knowledge of gRPC client implementation
  • Comfort dipping into backend services when the end-to-end feature calls for it
  • Working with large-scale operational datasets
  • Experience integrating with 3rd-party WMS or ERP systems
  • Mentoring or leading other front-end engineers


As a matter of company policy, Wonder does not sponsor applicants for employment visa status for this role.

Our hybrid model requires 3 days a week in the office. That said, many team members choose to come in more often to take advantage of in-person collaboration and connection. You're welcome-and encouraged-to be in the office up to 5 days a week if it works for you.
