Summary

Full Job Description

At Wag!, we build products that help dogs and their parents live more joyful lives. Working with our technology and engineering team is part art, part skill—and all heart. We like to surround ourselves with other smart people that will challenge us and bring new thinking to the team to help us build better products. We're all about automation and we're constantly pushing the limits on what can be delivered auto-magically—from QA to deploying code in production. Our patent-pending Woof Pack Scrum structure allows us to work more independently, faster, and with the right level of autonomy and accountability for producing results. If there's a way to integrate it into Slack, we've probably done it. We love music, food and drinks—anything that helps us be the best team possible. And maybe most important—we don't like to leave our dogs home alone, so be ready to spend your days in the office hanging with the pups.

At Wag! we're crazy about pets and the people who love them, and everything we do is intended to bring them joy and keep them safe.

We offer access to on-demand dog walking, pet sitting, drop-in visits, consultations with licensed pet experts and both in-person and digital training services across 5,200 cities in all 50 states, in addition to subscription and insurance comparison offerings.
