WeWork is the platform for creators, providing hundreds of thousands of members across the globe space, community, and services that enable them to do what they love and craft their life's work. Our mission is to build a world where people work to make a life, not just a living, and our own team members are central to that goal.

We are building software for physical space that uses data and technology at each point in the building process, such that it can make better sourcing decisions, improve its designs, build faster and smarter, and ultimately improve the lives of the people working within its buildings. Our state of the art technologies and dedication to technological innovation are key reasons why WeWork has been able to scale from operating one workspace location to more than 210 in just over eight years.

The mission of Real Estate & Development is to enable our teams across real estate, architecture, design, construction, and project management with the most up to date technology. The Build - Manage Materials squad develops and supports systems and processes that make designing and outfitting new WeWork opening spaces with FF&E materials as efficient and frictionless as possible. We are growing and looking for a proven leader and talented hands-on Senior Fullstack Engineer to help build our product vision of an E-shopping platform and experience for Interior Designers.

We own and will build a greenfield, new platform to support Materials Management, and complement pre-existing Inventory Product Lifecycle Management and Budget Forecasting initiatives. In this role, you will be a leader in the engineering group of multi-faceted and talented full stack/backend / and frontend engineers, and own design and architecture for our primary application. We are looking to re-invent the design experience by optimization across disparate systems, and using data to build an intelligent, self learning platform to build the world-class advanced predictive recommendations engine

Responsibilities

• Design and architect our advanced, centralized E-Shopping Experience for Interior Designers (which will be consumed company-wide across multiple end users).
• Be responsible for evaluating, designing and implementing Machine Learning and linear programming functions to optimize Interior Designer workflows and visualizations, and facilitate Budget Forecasting, Capacity Planning, Production Planning and other Supply chain functions by centralizing communications.
