About the Team/Role
We’re the Enterprise Architecture team at WEX, focusing on Enablement and Eventing. We are in the process of improving existing solutions and also building new ones to continuously modernize our products and technologies. We focus on the latest and most efficient tools to deliver the best products to our customers. We have more work than we can handle and we’re looking for great people to come along for the ride.
Our team works hard, we cover for one another, and we maintain a healthy work-life balance. We own our results and take pride in the ownership of everything we do (check your ego at the door and take pride in owning results!). We all are comfortable balancing the need to move fast with the realities of working in a highly regulated space like payments.
How you'll make an impact
You will learn, research, and prototype new modern tools for our teams. You will work with your teammates to create Proof of Concepts (PoCs) and share your findings with a broader audience. As a result, you will be constantly learning new technologies, processes, languages, and tools.
You will learn a lot of new cloud technologies to help us architect, design, and drive the adoption of cloud-based, fully automated, containerized solutions that will be used and implemented by multiple teams.
You’re open-minded and have strong soft skills to relate, collaborate, and communicate well with a diverse audience.
You love to learn and code! This role changes rapidly, technology evolves quickly and we want to provide the best options for our engineers continuously.
