Come join the Costco Wholesale IT family. Costco IT is a dynamic, fast-paced environment, working through exciting transformation efforts. We are building the next generation retail environment where you will be surrounded by dedicated and highly professional employees.
Software Engineers perform development work across the technology stack (both front-end/back-end expertise). They are versatile in how they can add value, demonstrating the ability to manage the completion of projects that involve databases, backend services, or the development of front-end applications. They should be able to demonstrate a strong understanding of emerging technologies to support the development of new solutions. Software Engineers understand the full technology stack and underlying applications, services, and databases in order to ensure optimal performance.
The Software Engineer in eCom Fulfillment at Costco holds a technical leadership role, engineering, and operationalizing solutions following the strategic vision of the organization's Fulfillment Technology. In this capacity, the Software Engineer will be instrumental in building the foundation to execute the long-term technical strategy, embracing innovation, and providing hands-on experience as a technical leader for the team; supporting the current SAP EWM technology, but willing to grow and transition as our technical footprint evolves. This role demands a dynamic approach, blending direct technical guidance, mentorship, and active participation in risk and growth management.
