About Bolt
We are witnessing a massive shift in consumer behaviour from offline to online. With it, there is a need for technologies that enable online businesses to thrive. Bolt is at the centre of this universe working on the next generation of E-commerce, having created a best-in-class buying experience from checkout to fraud detection, payments, and more. With our help, retailers can successfully compete with the online retail giants that have the means to invest in technology.
Bolt is fundamentally reimagining E-commerce identity by building a global identity layer that allows shoppers to have seamless, personalised, and rewarding experiences across any retailer with one account. We’re starting with one click checkout but plan to expand what our accounts products can do for both shoppers and retailers.
The Bolt Commerce solution expands into places where commerce has never been seen as native before. At Bolt we believe e-commerce should not be tied to any specific place, app or website. We make any product in the world buyable on any digital surface, with the most streamlined user experience possible. Bolt believes that anyone should be able to buy anything from anywhere with one click - Commerce Everywhere.
About our tech & team
We, Commerce Everywhere division, are a group of 100+ passionate engineers based in Europe and US. We value relations and solutions more than languages and processes (although these are also important!). We strive for developing a fair and healthy workplace with the culture of inclusiveness in mind, where you're responsible for your colleagues as well as for your own work. We believe it is possible to have fun and learn amazing things with great people around you, while doing a meaningful work in a sustainable way. Be good and do good!
Although we love technology and can talk hours about it, we also look far beyond it. We're sure you'll love our Lunch & Learn meets, soft-skill book-club or our after-yoga "bring your own awesome food" brunches.
About our tech
In order to enable commerce everywhere, our main ongoing technical challenge is to grow the transactional inventory of rich products, refine it and allow our partners use these products on their surfaces - websites, mobile apps or literally anything.
We work with high-frequency product changes - importing large volumes of products from other sources into one data lake, refining them using AI & ML, all based on the Kafka event-stream; Then - we expose it via APIs, event streams or through beautiful and interactive UIs for our partners or creators - to then handle whole consumer checkout journey (including product discovery and payment) using our composable UI Elements.
Our tech stack:
- TypeScript/JavaScript, React
- .NET Core, Go, Node.JS
- Kafka, SNS/SQS, MongoDB, PostgreSQL
- AWS, Netlify, Fastly, K8S, Github Actions
We believe in pragmatic approach and proven choices, but we are not afraid of experimenting. Our code is mostly strongly typed and well tested (TypeScript, .NET Core, Go) and hosted on AWS. Our fundamental organisational and architectural direction is to design teams around full autonomy and responsibility over their product and engineering, but with the strong focus on transparency and written culture (ie. technical design process or cross-team guilds). On top of that, product teams are supported by the platform team, whose goal is to increase the developer experience and make the engineering experience seamless.
