Software Engineer II

Boston, MA

Chewy’s Pet Health team is on a mission to build innovative solutions for our customers and our partner vets, such as our recent launch of Chewy’s first Telehealth service and Insurance. Engineering plays a meaningful role in defining and driving our platform roadmap. We take time to understand the “why” before we start crafting up the “how.” We celebrate engineering successes and promote a blameless and continuous learning and improvement engineering culture. We set the bar high for delivering production-ready code by adopting CI/CD (continuous integration continuous deployment) and DevOps engineering standard methodologies. Our engineers are encouraged to contribute ideas and code to our own platform and to other partner teams.
